cute and safe. The wool cuff is cute, the buckle on the back is unnecessary, but ok. Yay (maybe do some personal tailoring and remove the buckle yourself) Always try to do something custom to all clothing to make it personal and unique.

Josh, I need some skinny British boys to run down a beach, though, to get the full effect. Veronica, I think for Phantom we'd need a violin controller. I could get down with that.

I could get down with RockBand: The Wiz

Rock Band: Avenue Q. The possibilities here are really endless, though most are admittedly better for singers.

how about people just learning how to play instruments for real? enough with the video game thing already. take some lessons from someone that knows how to play. learn to play and then play.

I've tried to apply things I did in-game to real life, but that didn't work out so well after Katamari Damashii...

I think Rock Band: Musicals could work if you introduced a violin and some kinda wind instrument. Although, let's be honest, we really just want to 'sing' the songs...so we're better off appealing to the Sing Star people. :)

So I guess the meme would start with something like: A picture of two otters in the water looking at each other, one cracking something on it's stomach. The caption would read "Excuse me. Do you have any Gray Poupon..?"

Get the Consumer Reports car buying guide for reliability and a new car report (it's the GDGT for cars!). Go test drive each model you want--doesn't matter where, don't enter into a deal at that point. Email auto dealerships to compete on price for exactly what you want. They all work that way now (only suckers walk in with no prior cost estimate). Then realize the parking will cost more than your payment because you're in S.F. ;)
- Dave Friedel
Even though you can get the exact supposed cost from Consumer Reports or KBB... there is still a dealership kickback from the auto makers. They did this some years ago because people were able to see that new car sticker prices were about $2000+ over the dealer cost (thanks Internet!) Once everyone could estimate the dealer's real cost it ruined the margins. The big auto makers gave a...

And final note... I'm on my 2nd Nissan because they last forever. Avoid VW like the plague is my 2 cents.

Consumer Reports does not get free test vehicles (it buys each one) and accepts no advertising. It's the safest bet for getting real reliability and satisfaction reviews. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro...

Either get a Mini Cooper or a Ford. My sister and brother-in-law rented a car and it was a Ford (can't remember the type) and it was awesome. It had Ford Sync and Sirius-XM radio. My Mom has a Mini Cooper and it's an awesome car. It looks small, but it feels big. :)

I would shop around online to see what's available within your budget. Before I bought my hybrid, I window shopped online for price ranges and got a quote from Costco. Then I used that quote to bargain with my local dealer and finally bought my current car.
- imabonehead
I'm looking to buy a new (to me) car in a couple of months. I rented a Ford Fusion and was very surprised. it's a solid car. don't know how well it lasts, though.
- jbrotherlove
Psh, Veronica this is the 21st century. We have vending machines for this now.
- Windshield
Get something with sync. Fusion Hybrid for example. Aside from the gadgetry, it has something like a 700 mile city range. Buy gas only every few weeks.
- David Eckard
don't buy new. You want to buy 1 or 2 years old. That will save you on depreciation. As stated above, check out Consumer Reports, well worth the money you pay. Personally, I'd look very closely at the Fords. They've done a phenomenal job in the last 4 to 5 years building quality cars with some style and function. Ford Fusion or Edge would be my recommendation.

Seriously, I had the same trouble for a long spell earlier this year. Key question: Do they startle you awake or out of dreaming? They did me, so I'd roll over and they'd start afresh. Eventually I got a prescription for Ambien to get a good night's sleep. Unexpected consequence: Anxiety dreams got resolved. Still had the same dreams, but by staying asleep my mind confronted the anxieties, ultimately solving them. Seems the key was staying asleep long enough. YMMV.
- Ross Bennett
When you're already living the dream lifestyle, you have no other alternative than anxiety dreams or nightmares.
- Jason Wong
Ross, interesting. I've tried Ambien before, but usually only when I'm traveling. I'll give that a thought!

Have you tried any of those soothing dream apps on the itunes store? They play sounds that supposed to calm your dreams down

How many times do they have to watch a movie to get all the jokes out of it? or Have they ever though of a real funny joke, but it was just too offensive to use? Also when is Veronica getting in another Rifftrax?

Ask them if they think M. Night has finally overtaken Uwe Boll as the director they'd least like to see make their favorite game/comic/whatever into a movie. At least Boll has a sense of humor about himself (see the awesomely bad "Postal" as exhibit A)...

Ask them if they ever thought of doing a commentary on Rocky Horror Picture Show?

lol! Thanks V! But i had the hardest time ever trying to get that Image to a flash drive, It keep saying no flash drive detected, and I was like WTF? work! i see the light flashing! So i pulled it out and threw it down and took it with my iPhone! Then 5 minutes later i realized i had the drive formated NTSF! lol

It is also my understanding that for most people the signal indicator on the phone decreases but the call isn't dropped, so it's a non-issue, even if you don't place a bumper on the phone.
- Wa Conner
@Wa depends on what you think the 'issue' is. Yes, despite the software reading or not calculating signal strength correctly, or whether or not you need a band to keep your hand from messing with the signal, it all really boils down to whether or not it's dropping calls. So, in that regards, it is a non-issue. But, what is the real issue? Well, for me, it's that I'm pretty sure Apple...

I think the rule is if they were a dick to you in high school, you're allowed to say it any way you'd care to.

This seems like a perfectly legit discussion f both of you people questioning the setting in which it took place! However, bears and dragons are distinctly different: Dragons will drop golden fleeces, magical weapons, and scales to be used for the creation of magical armors; meanwhile Bears most often will just have a pelt, and not even the one you need to finish the quest.
