get an ipod
An iPod rejuvenated my music habit 4 years ago

I bought a 10GB 1G years ago. It rocked. I actually started buying music again when I bought the iPod! No more overpriced CDs with a couple of decent tunes on them. Then I lusted for the 40GB 3G as my music collection grew. Now I buy just about every tune I want, when I want, where I want.

An iPod Shuffle is in my future.

Don't settle for anything less! 4 years ago

Hands down, the best laptop made. Great design, great feel, great software. It’s fabulous enough to make me think about going back to work!



Lose 10 pounds
Just do it! 4 years ago

I did this five times over. That’s not 5 different times. That’s 5×10lbs. So worth it! You feel better. You have more energy. You enjoy life more. Sure, it’s work. But if you want it bad enough, you’ll make it fun. And it’ll happen right before your very eyes.

Oh, yes, and the quickest way to lose weight: the High Altitude Climber’s Diet™. Spend a month trekking and climbing in the rarified air of the Himalaya. Not recommended for all; consult your physician; your mileage may vary.
