What the hell do I want for my birthday? It's in 2 weeks.

Something good, but not too expensive. Everyone wants to know, and I have no idea myself.

Any ideas?

Sorry glatt, all the good things I can think of are almost certainly in the realm of "too expensive."

Some kind of garage/woodworking gadget, maybe?

Yep. When I'm in doubt of what to get my dad or brothers, I get them something for their respective Man Caves!

here's another one for a "SIGN WAIVER"

Quote:
Tax service needs an energetic person to waive a sign starting Monday 5 April from 12-6 daily until 17 April. The waiver I hired just called and said they cannot take the job. Here is your chance to make some easy money while you listen to your Ipod. Right near EMU on Washtenaw.

Hmm...I wanna post something, but I can't think of anything that deserves it's own thread. Should I post my post that is a post here?

Oh, wait...I just did.

I don't know Westwood much, but I'm loving the Masters tournament this year. Westwood the current leader, Mickelson trailing only one behind, Woods and Choi next...Couples in it.

Tomorrow should be some great golf!
