"A new poll found that 43 percent of Americans think President Obama is doing a good job at handling the BP oil spill. Of course, the same poll found that 43 percent of Americans hate pelicans." –Jimmy Fallon
Facebook question: If I look at someone's profile on Facebook (they aren't added as friend yet), is there a way for them to tell that I was looking at their profile?
Supposedly there's a FB app they can install that will do that. I have no idea whether that app really works or is just a viral come-on.

I'm happy to hear that they found that sailing girl alive and well. When she gets home, I'm guessing that her mom and dad won't want her going to the corner store alone. I give her props for trying. And I have no idea how her parents can handle the worry of having a child out there like they did. Admiration all around.
legal question for all my smart ffriends - 3 people from work go out for drinks after work. 1 of them is a manager, but in a different department than the other 2. they have drinks, some laughs and in the end, the manager chooses to pick up the tab. on the drive home, 1 of the other people crashes and gets moderately hurt. Is the manager liable???
Florida is one of those states where EVERYONE involved in the liquor transaction could be held personally liable. You have to take a training course (RVP - responsible vendor program) before you can sell alcohol.

Why does my bank need to charge be $25 to put a stop payment on a check? How is this fee justified? It used to cost me nothing. I am cool with paying a fee for a service, but it's gotta make sense. Maybe I'm just getting old and bitchy....Darn kids.
From RFN Networks - Los Angeles, CA: Solo Commuters unable to use HOV lanes experience increased levels of 'lane jealousy' when watching cars in the HOV lane whizz by. This is especially true when the commute takes drivers through one or more tunnels. The condition is becoming known as 'Car Pool Tunnel Syndrome'.
I still think this is funny. Comedy masturbation perhaps, but I slay me sometimes!

Me too, Morgan. It's why I #badjokememe hashtagged it. There are quite a number of wonderful jokes, both great and terrible, that are so tagged. It's where I go when I desperately need a smile.

Wireless Internet - No phone line at home. No cable line. Looking at the wireless options out there. Anyone have positive or negative advice/suggestions on this? For reference, I'm in the Los Angeles, CA area. Help me FFobi FFreindobi, you're my only hope!
@Morgan it's not a HUGE spoiler, but, I mean, there is a good sized chunk of the film towards the end which does deal directly with the whole "survival" aspect to the highest degree...I mean, I knew "how" it ended, but that didn't change the tension I felt in those scenes, hoping he would make it.

I wonder if anyone will modify the iPad with a flip out protective cover. One that you could store a portable keyboard on. This would make it very easy to use the unit while it rests in your lap. Hmmm, maybe someday...
This guy is sitting in a restaurant, looking at the menu. The waiter comes to the table and asks for his order. The man replies "I'll have the 12 ounce NY steak, rare, and a small salad on the side". The waiter says "Rare? Sir, what about the 'mad cow'?". The man replies "She will place her own order".
Urban Dictionary - Word of the Day April 5, 2010 ‘Air Guitar’ An ancient art that originated after God wanted to rock out but had no electric guitar on hand. He realized how sweet a thing he had just created so he wanted to pass it down onto man when man had no axe to rock with. This talent was given to man, by God, through Jesus. Jesus showed the...
His ex-wife rolled up in the Maserati she took from him, as shiny and new and unscathed as if it'd just come from the dealership, just as the bird came to and flew up in the air.

Valentines Day Plans: I'm gonna take my daughter to breakfast at Norms. Then to a movie. But other than that, I'm just going to enjoy the 80 degree weather here in Los Angeles
When it's time to purchase a bed (full size, w/ boxspring, no frame needed), where do you start your searching? Stores, Online, Catalogs, back alley, a guy with a big truck parked down the street? It's been a long time since I've purchased a new bed, so I'm pretty much clueless. Your FF advice would be most appreciated!
We got ours from Sleep Train. I think anywhere with lots of different beds that you can test out should work fine (i.e. a place that has normal, Sleep Number, and Tempurpedic beds so you can compare the three competing bed ideologies :)
- Shannon Jiménez
I would suggest trying a few beds, and when you find a couple that seem right, then check CR to see what they have to say about the quality of the models you like. Or just get a Sleep Number bed and you don't have to worry about it ;)
