In Viewpoints 1369256286.003 Except for Ninja, I like those brands. But one can only buy so much of the same stuff. I don't watch QVC much anymore. Continue Reading In TV Talk 1369256098.46 I've been looking forward to this for months. Already set to record. I put out a Tivo wishlist for it months ago and it also caught a couple of 'behind the scenes' pieces done on the pic. IIRC, one of those are airing starting today. (also on HBO of course) Continue Reading In TSV Talk 1369254708.89 The more I think about this, the more I think I'm going to get one too. This price is well below anywhere else for this item. I see that the fan only has a two year warranty, which is actually kind of surprising. I just can't get past the low price. Continue Reading In Viewpoints 1369246613.26 Ha! Funny. I don't do texting, or anything from my phone except using it as a phone, but I'm always amazed that I sometimes (not often) STILL get wrong numbers and I've had this cell phone number since 1995. Continue Reading In TSV Talk 1369245776.73 I'm so glad you both are glad you ordered it. This has always been a really good brand. I purchased one of these Island Oasis carts from QVC, as a TSV I believe, probably 6 or 7 years ago. I think it was the first one they had. I still enjoy mine VERY much and I always worry that as QVC has products that gain popularity they end up being cheaply made down the road. Glad this isn't the case with this line. They are such useful products. Mine is out all the time (and has been since I bought it) and fits perfectly at the end of one of my cabinets to give me more area. The only odd, but rat... Continue Reading In TSV Talk 1369245260.48 I've found Dyson to be a very reputable company and never had problems with them honoring warranties over the years. As to the fan, I've never had one, although I've looked at them a few times. Maybe if my 43 year old Toshiba oscillating fan ever dies (oh, I so hope not!) I will look toward a Dyson. But one thing I have observed is that this price really IS good. I think they look pretty cool. I like the minimalist aspect. Fan blades usually don't look that cool. Continue Reading In Recipe Swap 1369244629.947 I printed it out, because I think it's valuable info and I thank you for your thoughtfulness in sharing it. :) Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm really huge on not wasting. I can afford whatever I want to have, but I just still cannot stand waste. I won't use something bad, as I grew up being fed rotten and moldy food, so I am pretty food-neurotic. But I take steps to not waste. When I get a new bottle of something I will empty the old one into it if it takes all day for it to run out. It's easy to figure a way to make it stay up on top so it empties itself into the new one (anchored up against t... Continue Reading In Viewpoints 1369241202.057 I often see a lot of people here giving a lot attention to things about which they claim not to care. Aside from that, my attentions enjoy variety. I pay differing levels of attention to many different things - from the banal to the compelling and to that which is very important to my life or the world around me. I don't subscribe to this notion that if somebody is paying any of their attention to something that is not important, in the scheme of things, that they are unable to pay any of their attentions to things that are much more important. One of the unique things about this board i... Continue Reading In Viewpoints 1369240392.007 Generally speaking, I get weary of seeing the same story over and over hour after hour day after day. I don't say that because I don't care. I say that because, after a while, it becomes tabloid-ish. I saw something the other day that just made me cringe. It was one of those types of questions like 'So, how did it feel to see your house blow away, your things gone forever, your dog dead, your kids missing, yadda yadda yadda - HOW DID THAT MAKE YOU FEEL???'. Really? I'm sorry but that kind of stuff is just purely disrespectful and wrong. It's like everybody needs to get in there and ... Continue Reading In TV Talk 1369239688.55 I watched yesterday. Good episode. Won't spoil since it's not a spoiler-tagged thread, but the 'surprise' was pretty predictable. The Russell/Timmy storyline was pretty cool. That one came out of left field, well until it became obvious what was probably going to happen. I'll sure miss this show. :( I've watched it from the beginning. Continue Reading
