    I live in the desert and will probably never, ever need something like their hat but I may get one just in case the temperature suddenly drops 100 degrees.

    I'm buying a new bobtail truck...I finally got it!

    Re: I'm buying a new bobtail truck. You're going to have a 360,000 mile bumper-to-bumper or drive train warranty? That's incredible. Isn't there a cap on the mileage?

    So long, little buddy

    Geoff You gave him years of comfort and care and he in turn gave you friendship that only a loving cat can provide. Wait awhile before you find another cat. Who knows, maybe a British Blue will come scratching on your door one day. Marty

    I knew that I wasn't going to have a good time when Katie Couric showed up on the pre-game show. CBS, the network that will make up news if they have nothing else to report.

    Super Bowl 2007

    Thanks for the response. I changed my post to "1st down" versus "line of scrimage" because I just realized that there are several colored lines on the screen. The last time I watched a pro football game, a couple of guys held a marker on the sideline to indicate where a 1st down was. I'm only...

    Vista
