Uncle Ralphie, your ill gotten reward is on the way .... those poopie head Patriots :grr: ..... they wouldn't let me whip up a batch of brusselsprout-boiled cabbage so I had to settle on shenanigans.

We all have our crosses to bear ...I think I can survive without the Brussels sprout/cabbage, if I must :)

Ditto. Luckily for me I'm really OCD about my budget... I'm either perfect or worse than an 18 year old with their first credit card. So I check all 3 of my accounts daily & spend at least 45 minutes a day in Quicken.

Edit: I don't believe it's either Target or Amazon. Target did have a huge breach recently, but I just don't believe this is 100% related. It could be from a processing center, it could be from an auto-pay service, it could be using numbers from the Target breach & trying different combos with the last 4 digits. Hard to say. It's likely they're doing the 9.84 charge as a tester & coming back later to wipe it out, or it could be just a low cost hit across so many sources that it adds up to a big payout. No one really seems to know anything about it at this point.

That bolded part is me lately. I don't use credit cards though, I had an ex who DESTROYED my credit. I just spend everything right up until there's ALMOST nothing left :) So there's nothing for them to swipe from me.

That happened to my boyfriend's grandparents though. Small charges. They are old and didn't notice. Then...boom...almost 10G in one fell swoop.

Long post this, here goes.......

BARE-NAKED LADIES ! Duet !

So mcol and Kelli, your up first, K

before the champagne and brandies kick in,
you both look like you can sing.

It's The Last Day of 2013 Hogmany Karaoke Challenge !

This song is just a shade under 3 minutes long,
Quite a few words
You have 2 hours rehearsal time, then I will switch your webcams to 'Global-Skype'
and then we will mark your performance out of 10.

Good Luck !!

Here are the lyrics

"One Week"

It's been one week since you looked at me
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"
Five days since you laughed at me saying
"Get that together come back and see me"
Three days since the living room
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like LeAnn Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous,
you'll have to sign a waiver

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air
and said "You're crazy"
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault
not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry

Chickity China the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy

Like Kurasawa I make mad films
Okay, I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides
and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame,
but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
Birchmount Stadium, home of the Robbie

And a video

I know the pain. Up through my early 20's I wasn't very good about it... maxing out cards at the bar & the like. Took me years to build it back up & was getting ready to buy a house... then my ex happened. It was really frugal living for a couple years after her & pretty much working nonstop. But I made it - bought my house this past June. Ever since that hot mess I like to borrow a phrase I learned from a friend - 'single but unavailable'. Bills get paid, the budget is strict but it leaves me room for everything I need. Occasional loneliness beats the snot out of headaches, relationship stress & general bravo sierra.

On a better note, I just wrapped up an awesome coil yesterday. My first time playing with twisted Kanthal. Twisted 32g, 11 wraps, 1/16 ID, 1.9 ohms & downright delightful. It even looked pretty. :)

Yeah I just let it get out of control with credit cards. Now I'm not in serious debt but I am in debt. And just decided, working in my noble field, I will never pay it off. So I'm declaring bankruptcy while I'm still young enough to recover.

I really want to learn to rebulid coils and at least get into the whole dr burning thing but right now i just don't have the time. Since the Kanger PTII Mini coil units are not actually meant to be rebuildable so I think for now I am just going to change them out as they underperform (EDIT: And SAVE them for when I'm ready to learn) then spend the summer really learning how to do it right. I just don't have the time I need right now. Or the money to buy more when I screw it up, as I inevitably will :)
