I hope you've tried other running brands. Nike is total dog crap in comparison!

I have.

Nike fits me best, by far, and is the most comfortable. I've never had a quality issue with them.
New Balance and Saucony have been the worst I've tried.


I had one of those a few years ago when they were new. Tasty, yes. Heart bomb, yes. Worse for you than a Big Mac. Never again.

WOW, I can't believe Rome is Amazon's Deal of the Day!

I have been so patiently waiting for a price-drop on the blu-ray. I even sold the DVDs of each season months ago! $60 for both seasons on Blu-Ray, you can't beat that!

I jumped on that deal too! Loved that show!

Perrumpo, what do you think of these:

I may be saving for those next. My Nike's are getting shot out. LOL. Seems like my legs need more recovery time after every run because of my
crappy old Nike's.
Don't you just love the feeling of putting a new pair of running shoes on,
and how good it feels after they are broke in? It's like running on a fluffy
pillow. I miss that feeling.

Unless you already know, I would go try out a bunch of brands to see which ones fit you best. After all, that's what matters most when it comes to brands. I haven't tried Asics, so I can't give an opinion on them, personally.

I don't like New Balance because they are too wide and fall apart rapidly. Saucony was very uncomfortable for me. They caused me problems when I was forced to use them a few years ago at basic training. But don't avoid a brand because they weren't comfortable for the person criticizing them. It's all subjective.

What is that? I mean I get it's McDonald's and it's cheese and sausage but what's the top about?

Yup. Sausage egg & cheese Mcgriddle. Heart attack in a bag. It was delicious, but I felt nasty for almost 3 hrs afterward. I only get one on rare occasions.

Left 4 Dead 2 for PC. I was holding out on it, but it was on sale for $30 today, so I said "why the eff not?"

I had previously looked for this game a few months back, but couldn't find it. I went to pick up Mass Effect today, found this for 10 bucks cheaper, so I grabbed it instead.

Had waited a little while for a tripod, but it's been too long. I grabbed this on sale for $29.99. For the price, it's more then you can ask for. It'll get the job done.

Danbo (or Danboard, whichever you like more). The original, larger version was too hard to find in stock so I ordered 2 weeks ago. It was only suppose to arrive on the 31st of December, so this was a nice surprise. I've never been much of a collector, but there's been some toys I've always liked, so I usually grab them.

Since I'm not asking for much this christmas (my mum actually bought the only christmas gift I asked for with me today (a nice dressy jacket)), I treated myself a little bit. Either then gifts for others, this'll be the most money I waste all month.

Once you try them, you'll never get anything else.

They don't fit me well enough, so I guess I'll never know! But thankfully, I couldn't be happier with my Nike runners and SFBs.


Bought this for my dad for Christmas, though I will definitely steal a Lossless copy from him!

Ditto. Best running shoe I've ever used. I'm a big guy and if I don't use the right shoe my feet KILL. Asics are the best I've found so far. New Balance is fairly close, but I like Asics more. My wife only uses Asics and Saucony's. At barely a 105 lbs, she's more of a true runner than I am, I suppose. :D

I even remembered to add these PS3 triggers to my cart while I was buying something over $25 for free shipping. They're only $3.99 right now. Got two. I'm hoping they will really help. I hate the triggers on the PS3 controllers. My fingers always slip off of them.

They work great, and they are a must have.. I have two sets myself..
