$20 to Borders... I'm drawing a blank. Probably because I'm busy.

How would you spend it?

I'd probably spend an hour or two looking at books before realizing I haven't read 90% of the ones I own anyway. Then I'd move on to the CDs and use the $20 on a CD that sounds interesting at one of the listening stations.

Ky, with probably $5 of yr. own thrown in, you could score American Tabloid and Cold Six Thousand by James Ellroy. Best books I've read in years.

Hmmm... I do need a lot of new music.

I got it for trying to fix the boss's laptop, unsuccessfully. I don't have the time to do a proper browse, unfortunately.

Heeeelp..... C'mon, Senator. You're holding out on me.

Only problem is that most of my Obner time is spent on tha man's computer. And mine is sharing peripherals w/ the wife's, meaning any usage involves swapping out every cable. =Pain!

Ever heard of a wireless network, Ky?

I'm usually NIFOC when posting.

Oh we wireless at home. I'm talkin monitor / keyboard / mouse etc. I just got it free bout a month ago, just the tower, cuz it needed too much work and somebody gave up. P4, 40gig drive, etc., but had a botched raid controller setup for 2 drives. Anywho, haven't bought a 2nd monitor or anything else yet.

We lazy.

I have no idea what NIFOC means (and with the vomit comment, I don't think I want to), but I, too, have recieved a $20 Boarders certificate, and am trolling for ideas...This will help to counteract their overpriced goodness, though:

Use it, Cap'n. Use it well...
