(Thankfully, Aldi's is still 18.5 oz.!) Continue Reading In Kitchen & Food Talk 1371682492.567 Exactly! "Over 30 years ago" could mean that I got my first apartment in my 20s or even my teens, since no one here knows my age; I could also have been in my first apartment for a long time. I guess poor reading skills are something we have to thank our public school system for... (Not saying there aren't some GREAT teachers out there - there are, but they're few and far between.)

I once got some sort of pop-up telling me I had a virus and for (whatever amount of money) I could get rid of it. I tried to close the page, and it wouldn't go away - I kept getting pop-ups saying that I could be sued if my computer was misused and all sorts of other BS; it kept demanding my CC #. At the time I didn't know how to use the Task Ma...

It was almost always on for "company" when I was home, and the Fashion Days were something to look forward to. Now I never watch, and never order anymore.
