O/T I actually went through some old stuff today and found 2-Digital VHS blank tapes. Treasure!

I was at a Staples a couple weeks ago the week prior to Christmas. They had a desk on sale, and I was going to get it for aj & tj for their computer set-up. I went the last day of the sale, and they had 5-pcs. on hand plus the display sample. Knowing retail, they likely got 5-6 pcs. for the ad that week and had sold nothing or 1-pc.

That told me everything I needed to know about how their Christmas was.

I asked the manager if they were busy, and you can't get a straight answer because most of these people haven't worked there long enough to know what busy is.

Pretty cool about your daughter and swimming. She must be lean, long, and determined. My 6-year old has the body of a powerlifter, but she plays all sports and is ambidexterous. Her big weakness is her core muscles, if you can believe I would say that about a 6-year old. She can do 1-arm push-ups but has a hard time doing sit-ups.

I think we're going to be astounded at what memory prices are going to be soon.

I was going through some old archives today and found some Iomega Jazz tapes as well as some old Zip discs. Times have really changed. 1-TB drives are now about $139 at retail.
