        well you better let Yahoo know! -- nm - moles Mar 6, 22:13 6
        
        Maybe they're using international currency valuations ... might be a bit of a dip since '06 -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 22:16 5
        
        definitely something funky going on there. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 22:19 4
        
        OH .... I think I see. The top three were private sales (although the Klimt sale was done through Christie's). The next three - loosilu Mar 6, 22:24 3
        
        The Klimt has the highest original price paid, but it wasn't a public sale. - loosilu Mar 6, 22:27
        
        i was about to explain all this also -- nm - zork Mar 6, 22:25 1

Anyone watching this Next Great Restaurant show? Fun so far, but a question: - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:57
Very glad that washing machine buyer didn't call when I was putting Kieran to bed - K has a cold, and he's not feeling well at all. - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:50
Leafs off tonight and tomorrow. Tuesday: open a can of Leaf whoop ass on the Islanders - moles Mar 6, 21:44
Frustratingly, I tried Killzone 3 a bit longer tonight. I... still...suck at first person shooters. I wonder if Gamestop accepts bundled games - Qale Mar 6, 21:39 2
- I wouldn't lump Killzone with first person shooters. I've been playing FPS since Doom and Killzone was different. - Mop Mar 6, 22:20 1
  - I wasn't too terrible at Quake or Wolfenstien or Hexen. I mean, I certainly still played them on easier levels. I can't do Killzone. At all. -- nm - Qale Mar 6, 22:44
So, today I sold the old washing machine for $100. As far as I knew, it worked. Buyer just called me to tell me it won't work right. - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:05 9
- Did you run it for him when he picked it up to show him that it worked? If so, he is SOOL. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:07 6
  - No, no way to hook up the water to it - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:10 5
    - Ouch. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:12 4
      - I just talked to him, and he says the spin cycle works (so the motor is fine), it's the logical progression between wash modes that is causing a fault - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:20 2
        
        Eh, that is good enough. If it was dead, I would be concerned but you should be in the clear. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:21 1
        
        And at $100, there's a lot of wiggle room for repairs and still being cheaper than new -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:28
      - The buyer's screwed. He accepted it with the "to the best of my knowledge" disclaimer. - TWuG Mar 6, 21:15
- I mean, who knows what would break it. It's a six year old front-loader. Maybe sticking it sideways in his truck did it. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:06 1
  - Google that and see. If sop, there is your defense. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:13
Secret Millionaire was blatantly schmaltzy. I think I'm done after one episode. - JaxSean Mar 6, 21:05
Faried of Morehead State might be one of the most impressive players that I've seen so far in this year March Madness - JD Mar 6, 20:56
It took me a long time to recognize Herman in Justified. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 20:47 1
- actually i think he's aged rather well. and his acting is pretty good (nm) - howie Mar 6, 20:52
White House kitchen staff is now making homebrewed beer. Cool or not cool? - loosilu Mar 6, 20:41 34
- Bush did . . . oh wait, probably not -- nm - moles Mar 6, 21:57
- It's cool. Your friend is idiotic. -- nm - Stephen, Winning Here, Winning There Mar 6, 21:54
- I typed a reply to him and then erased it. He's a fool. And White House homebrewing is uber cool. - TWuG Mar 6, 20:54 2
  - he's uber right wing, although a funny version of it. It's dumb to engage him. I'm quitting now. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:06
  - until some jacktard calls it "Obama's Kenyan Smoove" -- nm - moles Mar 6, 20:56
- your FB friend might have issues. -- nm - TFox Mar 6, 20:42 28
  - one them being having a black president, one thinks. -- nm - Reagen Mar 6, 21:07 22
    - hard to say, but it's possible. he would have issues with any Democrat. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:13 21
      - You misspelled "probable". - Spawn Mar 6, 21:14 20
        
        you must be very smart to know my friends when you are not even on FB. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:18 19
        
        hey, if you can diagnose Charlie Sheen via TMZ, isn't anything possible? -- nm - TFox Mar 6, 21:19 18
        
        get back to me when you see my frient on TMZ. - loosilu Mar 6, 21:26 16
        
        i found him posted on the Internet, just like Charlie Sheen!* - TFox Mar 6, 21:28 15
        
        it doesn't set off your twattometer when someone calls your friend racist even though they've never seen him or read anything he said? -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:33 14
        
        You were the one who brought his admittedly off-kilter rant to the board for comment, loosi. -- nm - TFox Mar 6, 21:39 5
        
        I didn't even quote the guy here. Not one word of his is anywher eon this board. I didn't bring up racism. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:40 4
        
        i'm just trying to explain it to you so you can see what happened. that's all. - TFox Mar 6, 21:45 3
        
        I think I do. - loosilu Mar 6, 21:51 2
        
        ...not exactly. - TFox Mar 6, 21:54 1
        
        that makes more sense. thank you. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:59
        
        Given the undercurrent of what he's posting in this current exchange, I wouldn't put that far off the mark. - TWuG Mar 6, 21:38 7
        
        You're on FB reading his actual words, and he's a douche. if you're not there, I don't think there's basis to make that call. - loosilu Mar 6, 21:41 6
        
        Reagen mentioned the potential reason for this guy's distaste for Obama. Others trust Reagen - TWuG Mar 6, 21:47 5
        
        everyone here but Spawn was able to see the whole thing on FB, that's the difference. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:49 4
        
        *Heavy Sigh* The *CONTEXT* of it was brought here by you, buy me, by TFox, By Reagen, By Meg. Spawn would have to be blind, deaf and stupid not to - TWuG Mar 6, 21:51 3
        
        Nothing new. - Spawn Mar 6, 21:53 1
        
        I overreacted. Sorry. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 22:01
        
        ok, I guess I must be. sorry all. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:52
        
        Exactly. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:22
  - remember when I mentioned a FB friend who got into arguments with other FB friends, and I had to smack him down? - loosilu Mar 6, 20:44 4
    - His comment that the prez "ordered" his staff to make beer pretty much says it all. -- nm - MojaveMeg Mar 6, 20:53 2
      - Well he's running a regime, Megs! -- nm - Rush Limbaugh Mar 6, 21:37
      - yeah, I've quit the conversation but he's still posting, and he is really big on the "ordering" part. -- nm - loosilu Mar 6, 21:14
    - "it's as if millions of irony detectors cried out in terror and then were suddenly silenced" -- nm - moles Mar 6, 20:52

WTF, The Simpsons?! Heh. Weird but funny episode. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 20:23 3

  - I laughed. A lot. But it was funny. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:47 1
