I asked a different post about which is better, Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks and one reply was each company had it's own way of promoting their products. It made me think, I can't ever remember seeing a starbucks commercial but...

wesderby Come to think of it, I've never seen a TV commercial or heard a radio ad for them. Even though we had them when I lived in Phoenix, I'd never actually gone in to a Starbucks until I moved up here to the Seattle area...I think most of their advertising comes...

wesderby Hmmm...In that case, sounds like he needs to step up and spend more quality time with hit son before he has any right to complain about you running the haircut by his ex. Hopefully, he'll get over it and see that you did the right thing.

It's not often that you buy a CD that's totally worth your hard-earned pennies so I'm curious to what people are buying these days.

wesderby I'll admit, I do mostly free downloads now, as most CDs aren't worth buying, but in the last few months, I've found some that are absolutely worth the money and have bought them. If you like country, the new Jason Carroll CD is VERY good. (I think it's...

wesderby This is a tough situation. I think you did the right thing, but I can also understand your husband's feelings. As a father, I can't honestly say that I'd react any differently if my wife and I were to divorce. Just out of curiosity, if she'd wanted to cut his...

wesderby I've never bought anything via Woot, but heard about them a couple months ago on a satellite radio blog I read daily. That day, Woot was selling an XM receiver and (I think) either a car kit or home kit for $20...It was one that normally retails for $100....

wesderby I, to, agree that it's just become part of a common greeting. I notice sometimes when I'm listening to talk radio, if a caller asks the host "How are you", there is one host in particular who, instead of answering, will ask, somewhat snidely, "Do you care?",...
