In Vegas, it gets so hot in the summer that the twig and berries need an occasional break from the tighty whities...ewww!

Which reminds me of a quote from the movie, "Airplane:" Elaine Dickinson: Would you like something to read? Woman: Do you have anything light? Elaine Dickinson: Umm, how 'bout this leaflet: "Famous Jewish Sports Legends"?

Not to plug the company I work for, but we carry a ton of women's shoes in sizes 4-5: http://www.zappos.com/n/es/d/722000223/sho...ge/1/bar/1.html It's time to retire Payless Shoes...

When I used to be an avid runner in high school and college, we usually threw our worn out shoes into the power lines. I always thought of it as a symbol of accomplishment in running...finishing something.

1) U2's "with or without you," as many times as I've heard it, never fails to catch my attention. I think the songs great lyrics and Bono's ability to get his feeling across really stirs my emotions. There are others at the top of the list: 2) The Church, "under the milky way"/the bagpipe solo seals the deal 3) Sixpence None the Richer, "kiss me"/over played, but still a good one 4) Mazzy Star, "into dust"/deep, dark, and hypnotic 5) Billy Joel, "honesty"/heartfelt and sappy 6) Audioslave, "like a stone"/powerful, deep rock 7) Danny Elfman, "icedance"(from the movie, Edward Scissorhands)/touches my inner child 8) Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, "into the great wide open"/makes me think back to the end of high school 9) Green Day, "boulevard of broken dreams"/out of nowhere, one of my favorite songs 10) Radiohead, "Creep"/song was way played out in the 90's, but still moves me

Shoot, 65 G's, that's a lot of lettuce. Just hook up with a person that doesn't mind being videotaped, and you'll get a movie for free. ...I still have a tape from college

My company utilizes Fidelity for it's 401K, so the funds are all the same in my plan. I'm currently in the following: Stock Investments Large Cap FID BLUE CHIP GROWTH FID DIVIDEND GROWTH FID EQUITY INCOME II FID EQUITY INCOME FID FIFTY FID GROWTH COMPANY FID OTC PORTFOLIO Mid-Cap FID MID CAP STOCK FID VALUE International FID OVERSEAS So far these funds have done well for me, anywhere from break even, up to 10% growth.

That FIDELITY AGGR GROWTH fund is volatile and has potential to go up or down quickly. Whereas those bond funds you listed will be fairly steady, with less of the big swings. I've heard the theory that when you're young, you can invest more aggressively, and when you're close to retirement you can get more conservative. But, it still comes down to your personal comfort level. You can always call Fidelity for further assistance. Happy investing!

Hi all, Is having ones car broken into, while parked at your apartment complex lot, grounds to break ones lease? I also had my license plate stolen just weeks earlier. Plus, I've had past problems with a leaky roof, which was finally fixed after 4 months. I'm ready to jump ship, but don't know if I can, legally. Please let me know the low down...
