With all the talk of food and drink, thought I'd post this recipe in advance of Halloween. [I don't drink vodka, but it sounds good!]

Dracula's Kiss creates two layers: the bottom is red with grenadine and the top is black with cola. Add spiders to the drink or hang them on the glass for a ghoulish finishing touch.

Ingredients:
•1 oz black cherry vodka
•1/2 oz grenadine
•cola
•maraschino cherries for garnish

Preparation:
1.Coat the bottom of a highball glass with grenadine.
2.Add ice and vodka.
3.Fill with cola.
4.Garnish with cherries.

nod I already have 3. One for mints, one for chocolate/caramels, and one for Sugar Free items. I make it clear that folks that take a piece must at least say hello. This works for me somehow because I really don't eat candy that much.

Color me confused!! Confused
Of course he's married. Scratchchin I wonder why you thought otherwise.

Being that I had a very good friend (dinner together at least 2 nights a week) that came out of the closet (well, I'd call it blow the entire house down), I'm obviously NOT a good judge of that Teehee

Okay, so I need some advice. My son is fixing to be 7 and wants an iPod for christmas. I am the most iPod challenged human on this earth. I don't think he's mature/responsible enough for anything touch screen, but I also don't want to get him something that's going to quit working. I saw the little nano ones for like 50 bucks but they are reeeeally small and easy for him to lose.

So gimme the low-down on what's good and what's not.
As others mentioned, I have heard positive reviews of the SanDisk Sansa and Microsoft Zune players
as well and they usually cost considerably less than an iPod. Here is a recent deal with 14 TU votes
for the SanDisk Sansa Fuze 4GB MP3 Player.

Oh yea, I looked up his picture and I've seen his show, just didn't know his name.

I like him much better than the obnoxious rachel ray.

LOL Ohhhhhhh did you find a good deal on netbooks? Hope so... lol I am soooo seeking 2 new laptops but soooooooo don't wanna pay for it, even if it is cough in giftcards cough lmao
No, I bought the $269 Acer that Target has since like you, it's paid in gift cards. I'm a little peeved because we bought two of the Acer netbooks that were $199 in August, I wanted to get a third and dh said no. Now, this one was $70 more *and* has only half the battery life. Mad 3 cell battery vs. 6 cell battery that was in the other one. I wanted the HP that's on TPC but only one store in the area had it so I just picked up the one where I was at. The Acer is even low in stock in my area.

I admit it, I just didn't feel like fighting BF crowds for a possibly better deal.

Someone here pointed it out, it didn't click from the deals thread. Embarrassment Then I was sorting coupons on Thursday night and oh my I didn't realize how many of those $1/1 mq I had from inserts. Half are gone now, weekend of transactions. The floss mq does beep because the bar code doesn't match but haven't had a single cashier yet question it.

oh dreeme, you asked about the ipod... so here's my take:

i have an ipod shuffle and an ipod nano.

the shuffle first:
it is very practical and easy. it is small, has no lcd screen, just play, pause, fast forward and rewind buttons. mine is from a few years ago and only allowed you to put all the songs in sequentially. but really not a big deal for on the run listening to music. i have it in my purse/clutch all the time. just fish it out to listen while grocery shopping, while excercising, waiting at the doc's office. anywhere and everywhere. it is light, it is easy. it clips onto your shirt or pocket or whatever. at 1gb mine takes up to 250 songs depending on size and quality. plenty of variety.

the newest model of the ipod shuffle is a great thing made even more special in that it has 2gb capacity, allows for playlists, has a voice over function where the ipod announces the song name, artist name and playlist to you should you so choose (as an alternative to seeing it on an lcd screen), and it has a genius mix function where depending on the songs you pick to listen to, the ipod realizes what you are in the mood for and makes you a custom mix playlist. very nice.

and you can even get small hard shell speck (that's the company) zipper cases for them that holds the ipod and the headphones safe. child can just keep that case in backpack or hoodie or whatever.
best of all they're 49 bucks on the apple site. but you can get em cheaper from apple dealers/resellers and also you can get em cheaper from ebay. i got mine on ebay from a very reputable seller and had no problems.

ok, now the nano:
i love the nano because i really wanted playlists (my shuffle, as i mentioned is older and doesn't have playlists), wanted to have video playback, wanted to store more music in a portable device, wanted radio. the 5th generation (previous generation) ipod nano has all that plus a camera. the newest model -- 6th generation -- has no video playback, no camera, is smaller, and has a touch screen instead of the push buttons for fast forward/rwnd/play etc. i like the buttons. i like the option of playing videos and taking videos, too. so i actually prefer the 5th gen over the 6th gen.

at any rate, both 5th gen and 6th gen come in 8gb and 16gb versions. the 5th gen does not clip on. it is handheld or needs a case with a clip on it. the 6th gen has a clip on the back just like the shuffle.
the 5th gen is of course cheaper now that the 6th gen is out. again, you can get em cheaper through amazon/apple authorized sellers/ebay.

ipod touch:
for those of you interested in this model, around this time in the fall, apple runs a promo where when you buy a laptop as an educator/student, you can get the ipod touch for free after rebate. result: a lot of people put their brand new touches on ebay to basically bring down the price of their laptop. so you can get some great deals on them.
the ipod touch is great, in that it is fun, it is super versatile - surf the net, have gps, email, a gazillion trillion apps for everything you can think of, take pictures, and listen to music. essentially everything the iphone can do, except calls.
the downside for me? too big. it is super slim, which is nice, but it really isn't convenient to hold etc when excercising or using on the fly. it's 2010 and i don't want a walkman-sized player (height wise), although the touch is oh about 1/200th the thickness of a walkman. laugh out loud
a friend of mine got himself a touch. loves, loves, loves it.
friends of mine gave their 7year old daughter their old iphone, with phone service disabled. so essentially a touch. she loves it, and emails on it. but, i will say that being the oldest of now 4 kids she is very, very mature. and has a generally gentle, careful, thoughtful personality.


so, all this being said, i would say the shuffle is the most appropriate for a young child. it clips on easily. you don't have to look at a screen constantly to fast forward, rewind, play etc. you don't have to worry about shattering an lcd screen. and it is comparatively expensive, so that allows a young child to get used to the interface without worrying about it getting damaged.

I think it was you that pointed it out last week when I asked what the big deal was.

And I agree about the Nano. I think it was an odd move to go backwards from the 5th gen Nano with camera, to the 6th that doesn't have it.

I need some honest female opinions. I am planning on upgrading my wife's wedding ring for Christmas.

This involves a new diamond, settings, the whole deal. I got a price for her existing set. What is the rule of thumb in regards to spending on this type of item? I know that the 2 months salary rule is common for engagement rings. Are there any guidelines for upgrades? Thanks in advance.
