Yahoo seems to have changed the news info link next to the players names. It no longer gives me a quick pop-up with news and projected scoring. - Krusty Oct 16, 05:55 2
- Works like normal for me -- nm - The Legend of CQ Hollow Oct 16, 05:57 1
  - That's weird. I haven't changed anything on my computer but now it won't give me the pop-up, just the player page. - Krusty Oct 16, 05:58

    - My opinion is that if I lived in a building where strangers had keys I'd be pissed. We're losing apartments because of this and that's going to - Krusty Oct 16, 06:05 1

- My 2 cents - Strongbad Oct 16, 04:30 6

    - Wilson is a Top 10 Keeper Fantasy QB? - Strongbad Oct 16, 05:58 1
      - Definitely. Especially since you can't count on Manning past this year, or Brady past the year after. - Inigo Oct 16, 06:03
  - (question) - Beaker Oct 16, 04:56 2
    - On their current rosters - Strongbad Oct 16, 04:58 1

- I had one of those Boba Fetts from mail-order when I was little. -- nm - Mop Oct 15, 22:19
- I could have solved it for them for half that....weigh each figure & a box. see which it matches. -- nm - Peglegpete Oct 15, 21:53 2
  - unless you know the weight for every produced figure you would not know which is inside just it aint the right one -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Oct 15, 22:08 1
    - they made a handful of different figures of specific size & weights, and all the other boxes are open. -- nm - Peglegpete Oct 15, 22:31

      - If you can't water your lawn how can they allow a giant water park to use all that water? Makes no sense. -- nm - Krusty Oct 16, 06:09
      - The water park is always limited to guests at Great Wolf. It's indoors (at least around here) -- nm - droidlet Oct 16, 05:34 1
        
        Yep. It's like a super elaborate hotel pool, essentially. You pay to stay there and you get access to the pool. There is one here by Kings Island - volnelk Oct 16, 05:45

- It was the regular quarterly earnings reports. EPS beat consensus expectations, revenue matched, but subscriber growth slowed. - ty97 Oct 15, 19:58 3
  - they did miss their subscriber forecasts. est. 3.69M but it was a little over 3; and they were under their int'l estimate, too. -- nm - b. Oct 15, 20:01 2
    - Thanks, so a miss, but not exactly a lawsuit worthy miss I'd think. -- nm - ty97 Oct 15, 20:02 1

  - Pretty good reviews but not the top. A lot of the complaints (no back seat room, not much cargo space) don't apply to me. -- nm - Dano Oct 15, 19:53
- ignore other sites to a minor extent. to them it is dead inventory. I'd offer $21k knowing the max they will counter is 22K. -- nm - Peglegpete Oct 15, 19:48 8
  - I do wonder why it's been on the lot so long when I've seen other similar cars come and go. Maybe it's the color. There's a purplish tint to it. -- nm - Dano Oct 15, 19:52 7

b. The HBO announcement came hours before the cratering, it really was simply the slower subscriber growth that did it. - ty97 Oct 15, 19:26 2
