I’ve been playing with my Nintendo Wii for the past 2 days and loving it. I started playing because I wanted to play with Dead Space: Extraction. Now, I am interested in buying more Wii games from Amazon, GameFly and/or GameStop.

I never thought I’d play with my Wii console ever again. The last time was over 10 years ago. Good times so far..........

Long live the Wii........

Anyone here ever buy Money Orders from the Post Office? I pay my Rent with money orders and never had a problem...until now. How can I find out if it was cashed? Tracking says it was delivered but my landlord claims he never got it. Now I gotta pay him 2 months rent and I aint got the money

You have to open an investigation with the post office. I had to do it way back in the day, and they found that the money order was indeed stolen with a stranger's signature on it.

That investigation took weeks, and I can't even remember if I got the money back. I hope you have a quicker turnaround.

Damn, this means I'm gonna have to lay out the money. Was hoping I'd get a quick answer and/or refund. My landlord's not going to sit around waiting for an investigation

Well, check with the post office to be sure of all your options. Again, I did it WAY back in the mid-'90s. They have probably changed some of the policies since then (hopefully).

i'm thinking about a text i just got and hoping my package doesn't get lost. according to the text, it was shipped with fedex...and i'm definitely NOT a fan of fedex.

it's supposed to be here next tuesday, so i'll have to wait and see if that holds true.

Just out of curiosity, What's wrong with FedEx?
I worked in a local hub one holiday season, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would've been. I have plenty of packages delivered by them and never had any issues. UPS, on the other hand...

my experience is basically the opposite of yours. and while i didn't work directly for ups, i did work for a the ups store. it was owned by a friend. i got a lot of inside knowledge of how they (ups) work and what you need to do and who to call with any issues. i've never had any issues with ups, though. so i've never had any need to call them for any personal reasons.

but just about any time i've had stuff get delivered be fedex, it's usually late by at least a day. and a good bit of the time their tracking isn't updated as it should. like it'll say it's still in one city, but then the package will show up. and if you refresh that page, everything will magically update and show as complete. ups, on the other had, has always been really good with updates and showing things in real time.

Wondering if I need to contact the DM again to see about working at another store to insure I eventually get a ASM slot. I had to actually take a walk after the SM tried to “coach” me about something that wasn’t a priority last night when I was at work. I took a walk, which I think is going to be my routine from this point on. Between that and some dipshit trying to steal shit it was a helluva a day

Please go to the DM. This isn't fair to you and you deserve better with all you are going through.

Found a movie at Walmart today that I'd never heard of titled Dark Encounter. Not bad for a $10 DVD. Could have been shorter though, still recommend it.

Does anyone here soak their toes in mayonnaise?

The more appropriate question would be is there anyone here that doesn't soak their toes in mayonnaise. I just assumed it was something that most people did

I’ve been playing several games on 4 different consoles.

- Nintendo Wii ~ Dead Space: Extraction
- PS4 ~ Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End
- PS Vita ~ The Walking Dead Season 1 (Telltale Games)
- XB1 ~ Tales from the Borderlands (Telltale Games)

I’m not sure which game I will finish first, but I am hoping to complete one by the end of the month. I am really enjoying Extraction and Uncharted 4 and have been playing those games the most.

Is a triceratops really a dinosaur, or a unicorn with a birth defect that caused it to grow three horns instead of one?

What's on my mind is I'm looking forward to my first real weekend in a month after getting rid of my family, who were visiting me for the holidays. I'm unmarried and don't have children so I've often wondered if I should just find someone and get hitched and get it over with but after this, I'm ready to spend the rest of my life going solo

So I just found out my employer provided life insurance actually has value now and apparently I'm worth more dead than alive. How do I fake my death and get away with it? Hmmmm....
