I'm rereading Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried (teaching it again next week) and am looking forward to finally getting a chance to dive into Jhumpa Lahiri's new book, Unaccustomed Earth.

Finger Lakes girl here! And I LOVE my wineries!!!! :D ;-)

Not that you need them, but I purchased the cleaning brushes and I love them (for many other things in addition to my bottles): http://www.reusablebags.com/store/sigg-cleaning-products-cleaning-brush-bottles-caps-p-297.html

Another happy SIGG user here! I ordered two, but only received one at first because the 2nd pattern was out of stock. The company ended up sending me a 3rd one for free because of the extra wait - love 'em!!!! :9

Ditto what Wendy and Laura said. I'll also always have a soft spot in my heart for #2 (30 min) - it was my very first iTread and the very last song at the end totally gave me the push I needed and gave me that "runner's high"! I felt like Rocky running up the steps!!! :9

#1. BootCamp! Fun, sweaty, and over in no time! (I always do the "Everything but Core" premix. #2. Any of the kickboxing workouts. I also like these when I'm angry or frustrated about something and can *punch* and *kick* even harder! }( :D

I love, love, love CoreMax, too!!!! Especially with all of the premix options! }(

Ditto what Gayle said! :7

I haven't read Atlas Shrugged but I do remember enjoying The Fountainhead in high school - even though I wanted to punch the protagonist's lights out on more than one occasion. I was going through my "rugged individualist" phase, so it was perfect for me at the time. How does AS compare to TF?

Not to be a killjoy, but the Congress comments originated in 1999. Check out the Snopes response: http://www.snopes.com/politics/crime/congress.asp Gets ya thinkin', though - and that's always a good thing! :)

RE: on the bed, on the floor, on a towel by the door...... Sorry for pulling up an older thread, but I saw a spin-off of this today and couldn't resist. Yeah, it's probably politically incorrect, but it's pretty funny! "Hillary's xxxxxx Obama!": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skIlZflDs9Y

Ditto everything the PPs have said. In addition to reading Taking Charge of Your Fertility, I would suggest checking out the Ovusoft chatboard: http://forums.ovusoft.com/ too. It's affiliated with the TCOYF book and I personally found it (well, the people who post on it!;)) extremely helpful...

I agree - it tastes MUCH better in Ireland (we even noticed a difference between getting Guinness in Ireland and getting it in England)! YUMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:9

I remember being down to my last few pounds (currency, not weight, unfortunately) in Dublin during college and making the "easy" dinner choice of Guinness over fast food on more than one occasion. :D It's definitely a meal in itself!}( The memories are so worth it, though! :9 ;-)

I SOOOOO needed that laugh today! :D Thanks for sharing!!! :9

"the GREAT thing about GS cookies is that they come in single serving boxes. So enjoy with no guilt. HA!" What Lorrie said! :D

RE: Teaching a college class...frustrated................. I haven't taught at the college level, but as a 12th grade teacher, I feel your pain!!!! I used to work in a college writing center, and I was amazed at the lack of basic writing skills, the shoddy study habits, and the troubling...

Right now I'm into Pinot Noir and Shiraz/Syrah. But I also like Cab. Sauv, Cab. Franc, Merlot, Sangiovese, Malbec . . . . . . and any good dry red I can get my hands on! ;) For you Reisling lovers, check out some Finger Lakes wineries (in NY)!!!

Placing a few bay leaves in the corners of your cupboards and drawers will keep a lot of those little bugs away. I don't know why or how it works (something my great aunt once told me), but I've yet to see any of those teeny little moths or the little worms that leave their "shells" lying around...

***Tries to wipe tears from eyes and coffee off computer screen after reading the VF threads*** Those threads are WAY too funny (all I can think about is the "coochie crunches" and "Jingle Bells") - hee hee! :7 Yes, I've heard of Ben-Wa balls before, but haven't had the guts to try' em out...
