Katie was great on Eli Stone last night. -- nm - Beaker Oct 22, 08:52 2

- If I got ABC, I would probably watch Eli Stone. I love me some Jonny Lee Miller. -- nm - Dano School Musical 3 Oct 22, 08:54

  - this is my official position on the matter. I'm sure I will see people posting about it here. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 08:59 2
    - This is my plan as well. Not being able to function within my port is simply very disappointing. I'll wait. -- nm - Diva Oct 22, 09:03 1
      - yeah, when every page you load fails at least once, its not worth trying. -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 22, 09:06

    - *slaps Spawns hand* Don't be mean to Bery! -- nm - sheba Oct 22, 08:55 4

        My price? A brand-new Lavezzi 40. With a full computer system and solar power system rigged up. -- (link) - Beryllium Oct 22, 09:05 2
        
        At this rate of collapse, that is doable. -- nm - HSX Oct 22, 09:07 1
        
        Are you sure? It's 500 grand. :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 09:08
- I have yet to go there, and think I will just skip it. -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 08:52 1
  - I've tried several times, but have yet to make it past the main page ... which looks surprisingly like a yard sale. -- nm - sheba Oct 22, 08:54
