This is something I've seen even Darryl do. Definitely. There is no "a" in definitely. If I see you posting and you spell it definately, a big amount of respect goes out the window. The same goes for mixing up their (ownership), they're (they are), and there (abstract, location). ...

This is a simple game of associating words. For example, I tell you a word and you reply to my post with another word that is related to my word (I tell "fire", you tell "water"). I hope you like it. I'll start with a word: flower

- The deficits that most countries have incurred over the last two years during the recession have been blamed on spending. Little do people know that, while spending went up, most of the losses are due with major shortfalls in taxes. When the recession hit, the mix of people losing their jobs and...

I had 5 of my coworkers try on my glasses and they can't see out of them, and then I tried on her glasses and I could see great. I'm coming back in and I want my money back. (Not to mention this someone who ordered their glasses in Feb. and didn't come in to pick them up till we sent them a...

So I've decided to combine my love of Colonial history with my love for glasses. Anyone know anything about such things? (besides the obvious Ben Franklin bifocal stuff) I'm particularly interested in how the lenses and frames were constructed at that time.

Looks like we are going to get a visit from Earl. You wouldn't know it by the present conditions, Sunny, warm, and ocean fairly calm. Right now, I am planning on rideing it out, but tomorrow will give us a better idea of what's coming. So much for a busy weekend! Anyone up for company for a...

I have been using clear care for a long time and I was wondering if in a pinch I could substitute regular peroxide. I know I could just use tap water but I hate it. I think the only difference is clear care has a cleaning agent. I know its a stupid question bur I was curious.

.02 Heard of math?

just wondering if I am being unreasonable, for asking doctors to give me in writting what my pay and commission is ,because since I started they have changed it , and I asked them and they said I should just take their word....then to top it off one of the doctors wanted me to sign a tax form...

After many sleepless nights I made a decision to take a new position that kind of fell into my lap a few weeks ago. I had been happy for the most part with my old job other than the fact that it was a 50 mile commute through the worst traffic on God's earth and in all kinds of weather. Needless...

There are only two persons among the regular posters here that I know I know. Maybe I've met others of you, and don't realize it. Many of you seem to be old friends with each other, to be in frequent contact outside of OB. How many of the frequent responders here do you know personally?

This was years back... Dispenser sent in a pair for new lenses. As soon as I started to open the box I knew there was going to be a problem -- the odor assailed my nose and my eyes started to tear up. Glasses were in a zip lock plastic bag and the inside of the bag was covered with...

Any of you ever pull pranks? We have a guy who took four weeks off for his honeymoon. We are planning a few with him: - Stapler in jello - Leaving 30 messages on his voice mail. With him being gone for a month, he left his out of office reply to say so. So he is probably not expecting a...

I'll start with an old one my dad really enjoyed. Back in the medieval times there was a serf named Benny. Through no fault of his own, Benny was the lowliest serf in the kingdom. One day Benny was sitting near the gutter, head in hands feeling sorry for himself, when - Poof! Right next to him...
