Put a pair of speakers up for sale. In my ad I clearly stated that I have NO interest in shipping.

First response: How much to ship?

I guess people think I will change my mind just for them. Also, how can they not figure out how much it would cost to ship. My postal is in the ad so they can just go to Canada Post and check.

And people wonder why I can't be bothered to ship. Too much of a pain.

What speakers?  Does price include delivery?  :rofl2:

Held the door for the lady behind me when going into Timmie's a few minutes ago and she wiped out as soon as she stepped on the floor.  It was raining out at the time and she had Crocs on her feet, or Croc look alikes at least.  Once we hoisted her up and made sure she was ok i told her to do herself a favour when she gets home and throw them straight into the garbage where they belong.  Those things are unsafe at any speed imo.  :P

Between that concert and the air show, it's no surprise it's busy here in Fargo.  I hope I have no trouble getting into Texas Roadhouse tonight!

Hope your luck was better than ours.  We ended up going to Subway.  In the end we could've easily waited 55 minutes at Applebees...LOTS of time before the concert...but I don't win most arguments.  So Subway it was.  :P

Our seats were right at the top of the arena/stadium...all you could hear was bass, lots and lots of bass.  Journey's Asian front man sounds so much like Steve Perry it's crazy.  It reminded me of this... https://youtu.be/LcA4_1dqsjs?t=6m38s (watch the full video after...guy is funny)

Overall they all sounded good still. Even DL, who are 3 yrs older than the last time I saw them.

I booked ahead for dinner at Texas Roadhouse and waited about 5 minutes for a table after I arrived.  The buns with their honey cinnamon butter remain a favourite of mine.

She's doing well. I find I sometimes hit the wall at about 12 hours.

Worked 6 hours on Saturday and 18 hours yesterday at a mine site.

A bit wrecked this morning.
