Vibe, Torrent, Equinox, Escape
We've had a Toyota Matrix for the past few years, which is very similar to the Vibe. Car drives nice, good gas mileage, never had any problems with it at all. We chose the Toyota over the Vibe for the warranty. -
Worst/Best summer job
Worst job: I spent 2 summers when I was in middle school working at a can redemption summer. Hot, humid Iowa weather in a warehouse that had all the doors open most of the day. I got to count and sort cans and bottles. This probably has a lot to do with the fact that I don't care for the taste... -

Kansas City/St. Louis trip help...
Just south of Liberty, Mo. is a mini-golf course. Last I was there (years ago) it was a bit of a dump, but compared to a few years before that it had really been cleaned up, and I would assume it's continued to get better. The place has 3 different courses that kind of overlap each other, and it... -
Favorite iPhone/iPod Touch application
I like Bejeweled, and my hubby is recently addicted to Peggle (i think). He even got a version for his PC - and he spends hours playing the game. -
John & Kate Plus 8
They should cancel this tv program - there has to be more "500lb teen" and "half-ton mom" that they can play instead. Then we don't have to listen to Kate - and don't have to hear about their lives in the media! -
Bought a minivan today
My brother picked up a Mazda5 recently - looks like a car but has the roomy interior and sliding doors like a mini-van. He thought it was the best of both worlds, since he's not technically driving a 'mini-van', but he can still get the carseat in and out of the back very easily. I just looked... -
Fast Food You Wish Would Come to the Area
I'd like a Dairy Queen that sells cheeseballs - or any fried food for that matter, near me. For some reason the one closest to my house only sells hamburgers, hot dogs, and potato chips. -
Fast Food You Wish Would Come to the Area
A few restaurants I would love to have in DM: Taco Time New China (from Boone - have to go to HyVee to get good decent chinese food in this town) Margaritaville - chicken quesadilla and a strawberry margarita... YUM! Some little Swiss restaurant they had in north-central WI - great strawberry... -
Washing Machine Advice ($600 or less)...
This. I just got a new washer/drier a couple weeks ago and I love it. There are tons of settings, buzzers that let you know when the loads are done, I use less soap and water, and the drier only takes 35 minutes for a normal load and 45 for towels (as opposed to 1 hour for a normal load and 1.5... -
Self Arrest Day
I would think that would be considered entrapment or something. -
Working Out
I haven't done it, because I have no desire to kill myself to get in shape, but a bunch of my co-workers are doing the 9 week program at Goals In Motion, in Urbandale. The lady at the top of this link is a co-worker. Lost 101 lbs in 10 months. Absolutely amazing how different she looks now. -
Tornado in Metro
Well this is creepy - We're in WDM, watching Casino Royal on TNT, and our weather radio has been unplugged since last winter. I didn't know anything about the storms until now. I think I'll go plug that in now. -
Bought a new bed today...
We bought some latex pillows many years ago - and I love it. Very comfortable, still in great shape after all these years. I think the bed was a little more than we wanted to spend at the time, so we got something else, but they were quite comfortable. -
The Hangover
I agree. The other part of the movie with male nudity was 'barely noticeable'. :yes::biglaugh: -
The Hangover
I agree - this definitely surpassed my expectations. I don't know that I ever stopped laughing. There was actually a chic who sounded like she was hyperventilating, she was laughing so hard. GREAT movie! -
Where do you work?
Or you could read the thread and find out where people work who answered something OTHER than what was on the list. Just a thought. -
Summer vacations
Did Vegas earlier this year - Saw Ka, which was amazing. Front row seats - so close you had to keep your feet in or you might trip one of the actors running by. Expensive, but worth it. I won't have free time now until November as I'm studying for the CPA exam. I'd much rather be anywhere else... -
Online Universities
My brother tried to take classes from UoP while working full time as the manager of a bank. He lives on one coast, and had people in his class whom he was required to do group projects with who lived on the other coast. He said trying to coordinate a schedule to get together with these people... -
