    Where to order ink cartriges

    Do you have an Office Max nearby? They will take up to 5 used cartridges (any brand) at $3 credit per cartridge... I've also used 123inkjets.com, though I notice they now have a $55 minimum order before you get free shipping.

    I'd third the idea of banking locally ... we've gotten to know our branch manager, and she's been willing to match rates with competing banks. Never hurts to ask...

    The coming healthcare police state

    Of course this brings up some interesting scenarios, like -- We'll charge you extra if you don't treat your cholesterol. But, BTW, we won't cover the cholesterol drug you may need to treat the problem.... (I'm not making this last part up. My insurance won't cover Lipitor.)

    The Invisible Rich

    [/SIZE][/FONT] My DH still keeps falling into this mindset, and he's well past his teen years. He'll see someone's fancy car, or house and say, "they must be rich." My reply is, "Maybe, or maybe they're just up to their @ss in debt."

    How is the credit bubble affecting your city?

    Central Indiana: We've been hurting for a while with foreclosures and slow sales in many area. Now seeing the slowdown in the "popular" suburbs.

    The worst runway design ever

    My DH, who once lived in Chicago, refuses to fly into Midway .... Think it was also at Midway last winter that a plane went off the runway during a snowstorm, and ran into an intersection where it hit a car.

    The pastor entered his donkey in a race and it won. The pastor was so pleased that he entered it in the race again, and it won a second time. The local paper read: PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the pastor not to enter the donkey in...

    Didn't you move from Jersey? Think that might account for your housing and electric costs? Meanwhile, go ask your wife how grocery prices are doing week-to-week. From the Christian Science Monitor:
