Orange, the original.  O0

It was kind of my 2nd default drink of choice in Germany, after Apfelschorle. Because if water is not free with your meal (never is), you may as well order a fizzy drink.

Just squeezed back $120 worth of account fees from BMO.

They upped the minimum on their Premium account from $5k to $6k. As I only keep that money there to get the free credit card I never check it...until lo and behold mah monies are missing!

I think the bank should have kept the money.  Plenty of notice was given.

I never, ever thought I'd say this... but I've been enjoying shopping for a stroller. Our first is on the way in September.

If you've got other stuff you want taken off your hands, let me know  :rofl2:. I've already negotiated a high chair and crib from my boss.

It's kind of like car shopping right?

You want to get the best balance of features for the price. Your wife just wants the pink one.

Walking up the driveway yesterday and just happened to glance down at the top of the left front tire. Noticed a nail head sticking out. Grabbed the sidecutters and wiggled it out. Fortunately it was a short carpeting tack and hadn't penetrated through. Whew!  ;D

That happened several times last year. I wonder when my luck will run out.

Several times?  Somebody nearby have carpeting installed?  And they made a mess?

I just wrote a buddy who might be purging some baby stuff. Will let you know if he has anything.

Oops! Didn't mean to imply they were all tacks. The last one in Dec was a 5mm sheet metal screw. The large flat head prevented it from being punched through.
