8. And here I was ready to convince you to stay

I agree that it is a bummer that DU will be offline today, especially as I don't care for football and don't watch that comedy called the Super Bowl. But I know it will be that much better, so I am prepared to wait and play solitaire until then-or maybe, shock of all shocks, do some housework!

[seabeyond]

11. i figure it would be a good day to get grocery shopping done

without kids. the thing. i was going to check out du's cooking htread for some recipes. think i will jump in right now..... have fun with soitaire. i prefer free cell

[CTyankee]

[Wrinkle_In_Time]

37. Nah, it didn't hit hard at all and thing already look brighter...

... well done to the DU infrastructure people. That was a very smooth upgrade (from this user's perspective).
