Ahem...you mean over there---->

I was watching NCIS and Dinozzo freaked out when one of those flat robot vacuum cleaner things circled out from under a couch. It goes and goes and goes, hits something and turns and goes another direction.

I have hardwood floor that breed dust over night , and of course there are the two fuzzy furpurrs that fly around the house.

Does anyone have one? Know someone that has one? It might drive my two cats up the their cat trees all day though.

I DO Want that hammer...

I am ready to purchase a Kindle (sp?) but am reading about the one Sony put out for much less, difference is that the Kindle seems to have wifi, and the Sony version is similar to my Ipod, just plug and download... would love to hear from people who have both and their opinions before I buy one.

I have seen the Sony ads recently, and know the Kindle has been out a while.

and Amazon.com has it on a lot of the Book Pages.

..Don't have either one. My girl reads to me , and I don't have to worry about her being charged. She is always on..

Barnes and Nobles has one too... have you seen it?

I'mOneToo · 11-14-2009, 02:18 AM

Every gadget I've acquired has become lost at some point, except for my trusty mini Swiss army knife. It gets used nearly every day. Hope I don't lose it but now I've probably cursed it, dammit.

JustLovelyJenn · 11-14-2009, 02:41 AM

My dad has some sort of odd obsession with having tools he never uses... so I just use them when hes not looking. *bats eyelashes*

but honestly... my "i just cant live without" things are still duct tape and zip ties... *shrugs*

My Ex and her partner went to Switzerland last year, and bought me a wonderful Swiss Army Knife. It remains wonderful, as I can't figure how the hecka to open it.

Everyone who ever wanted to be Batman needs one of those grappling hooks *eyebrow waggle* Gryph was practically salivating--I didn't dare play the video! lol!

I'mOneToo · 11-14-2009, 06:26 PM

ah Warrick this knife has *sentimental value* a gift from someone, and if it was lost another wouldn't be the same.
(but I'd still need another one!)

It's easy to operate Tommi, just pull on the side where the little dips are. Unless it's a full-size unit, that I can't help you with. The oil, yeah, what Warrick said.

Darth Denkay · 11-14-2009, 10:15 PM

Hi I'mOneToo,

I do understand about sentimental value. Most of the knives in my collection could be replaced, but, similar to you, there are a few that couldn't be.But ah, I do love my knives!
