You know, I like sugary treats as much as the average six yr-old, but woooooah! And on that note, I think I need to find the ice cream in my freezer. - MiɳiMagɘ is EnderMage
Paul, you need an Executive Marshmallow Shooter Gun!! http://www.orvis.com/store/pro... See here on FF http://friendfeed.com/e/9c0273... - Susan Beebe
ooh! - Mohomed=genieyclo
That's CRAZY, man!!! - Lin-ZAY
Those look so delicious. I am definitely going to have to try that LOL - Matt Donders
Mr. Mage has a marshmallow shooter, but he's never bought any marshmallows. - MiɳiMagɘ is EnderMage
Mini - go buy him some!! - Susan Beebe
As soon as I'm done picking up the plastic BBs he shot throughout the house a couple of years ago ;) - MiɳiMagɘ is EnderMage
Blech! I watched (and smelled) the stuff being made and it made my stomach turn. - April Buchheit
You're a tougher woman than me, April...I think I'd go into a sugar coma just being within smelling distance. - Lin-ZAY
they were ok, the the caramel ones were definitely better - the caramel marshmallows will get made again, these ... probably not :P - bob

this could make me go cross-eyed though..hmmm - Susan Beebe
I like having it just sit in my sidebar while I do other work. When I see it move I just glance over to see what it was. - Matt Donders
interesting! - Mohomed=genieyclo
to reproduce this setup in Windows, do this --> Firefox - Get FF in the Mini Window mode; then press Ctrl+B to open the sidebar, then when the sidebar pops up, select the little green icon next the red X circle. this will place the mini--window in the side bar. Then for the main screen, select "standard" and there you have it. - Susan Beebe
Dizzy yet ??? :) - Charlie Anzman
oh yeah! - Susan Beebe
I feel stupid because I don't have the little green icon. - The Amber
Just did this myself.. very cool! I had to use the star in the mini-window to bookmark the URL, then I opened the bookmark properties in firefox and checked the "open in sidebar" check box, and then clicked on it. Wa-laa - Phil Glockner For Hire
Amber - I am sorry.. I just realized that little green icon must be a FireFox add on - try installing this Firefox add-on --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-... - Susan Beebe
AJ solved the issue sans add-on. Thanks though. - The Amber

First thought that came to mind: dildo LOL - Hao Chen
How is anyone supposed to top that?! - Shawn Farner
My addiction is really bad.... but I also hustle my way out of activation fees and in CA you can 'trial' the phone for 30 days. If anyone wants to know differences in features and functions + services I'll be more than happy to answer questions lol - Mona N.
I really need to get a job - Adrienne Van Houten
...oh and I also signed up for T-mobile's Hot-Spot add on plus alpha my service =\ - Mona N.

Pretty much the entirety of my awakened day involves something with a power switch. A little crazy when you think about it. - Jared Smith
I also bought the USB aquarium and the Hello Kitty Coffee maker. in pink =\ - Mona N.
How many surge protectors do you have in your house? ...am I seriously the only one who's going to keep spilling? Fine, I have three iPods... Two MacBooks (one core two duo and another simply intel), and a MacBook Pro... Two PCs (XPS and my janky put together from scrap PC), a Toshiba laptop, and one Linux server - Mona N.
Hmmm ok I don't think I can top you but so far this year I bought a new laptop, 5 different bose headsets, a canon rebel xti, sprint broadband card (returned), verizon broadband card (returned), spint-ppc6800 (returned), sprint-rumor, a sirius stiletto 2, and a tiny shuffle... yeppers - Brandon

My CrackBerry doesn't have a power switch, its on all the time. - Matt Donders via fftogo
@m ... awww, well that's pretty much how I feel after I spill. :( - Brandon
OK, Mona, I'll bite.

iPhone Applications Store Now Live
July 10 at 5:41 am - inquisitr.com - Link
I downloaded the latest version of iTunes after reading this, but no Apps in the store. Is it just me? - gregory
@Greg -- You need iTunes 7.7 to get Applications. Go to the iTunes store, search for Remote and you will see Applications as a search result in the middle of the page. Click that app and then navigate around in the Applications section. Link to all free apps: http://tinyurl.com/5fv8rs - Matt Donders
@Matt thanks, that's pretty tricky - gregory
Yep, there are no references to the app store on the front page (yet). Some direct links to app categories and various apps: http://bit.ly/4oYSEG - Wes Justice
