A friend of mine bought as Jetta TDI over half a year ago. He's been bragging about excellent mileage and how every consumable is half the price of mine (i.e.: tires for like $60 a piece?). Anyways on a trip, I rented a Jetta for a week and I loved it. It wasn't a TDI or a Premium, but it was very good nonetheless.
Got a tip for us?

Its funny you look at the standard whey ect label and it looks very plain and uninviting like it would taste bad yet its the best tasting whey that ive ever had. definitely good choice.
Yes it is a very nice car for what it is, but I just wish they didn't skimp out on some features (in order to cut costs and make it more affordable) when these new MK6 Jettas was released. It's not a deal breaker in any way, but I feel bad for the 2011 folks with the same car that has no disc brakes and better interior upgrades. The only thing I wish the car had is the IRS (since it's torsion beam for the rear on the Jetta), but to be honest it's not that big of a difference to me personally.
Other than that spent some more time with the car today and really love it. Can't complain that we are able to get 45mpg on average while I'm only getting 28mpg on my GTI.
On a related note just ordered a front plate bracket for the TDI. The front bumper was not drilled (thank goodness) so we're going to mount our front license plate to the tow hook.
Also another Escort 9500ix for the GF in her TDI.

it was a deal by B&H Photo.
keep an eye out for http://dealnews.com/c625/Computers/Storage/SSDs/
they're the ones that told me about the deal
Bought from local seller. I've wanted to try Android, and i got it for a good deal so i couldn't pass it up.
It's gonna take some getting used to
The new 70-200 f/4 looks pretty good to me but I will have to wait and see when reviews come out. I'll have an altered 'holy trinity' as well.

It was time to upgrade my wife's White UniBody MacBook. She didn't want too much so I decided to go with the following:
500GB Seagate Momentus XT
8GB OWC RAM
Mint Quickview for my mac:

You won't be dissapointed - Android is the way forward - Once you go Android ya cannot go back
There's a lot to get used to, so far I love it though. Funny enough I thought the 4.5 inch screen might be a little much, but I love it, and it doesn't make my iPhone feel small like I thought it would
Bought myself a couple things and they arrived just in time for my b-day yesterday.
New t-shirt
Due to crappy packaging, this poor guy didn't survive shipping unscathed
And added another one to my Portal collection!
http://www.thinkgeek.com still has these available in stock, it's are just the mini version

I just purchased that exact same bottle from Amazon. LOL! My wife wanted it for her morning drinks. I just make a cappuccino myself with no flavoring. Just steamed milk and espresso. My machine is small and makes a somewhat good drink, but I plan to purchase a nice plumbed-in espresso machine some day. My wife and I have saved so much money buying our own machine. $8 x 7 = $56 each week. $8 x 365 = $2920 per year in savings.

finally found the 30 pin adaptor at Walt Whitman Mall. It wasn't on the shelf but the guy looked on his ipod touch and they had them. Moral of the story, if you don't see it ask to check the stock.
I visit Apple Store almost every day (I work in a mall, at lunch I browse internet there) and they are full everyday since launch of them... I'm still can't understand how people can't find them...
Picked me up a black iPhone 5 64 gb last night at Micro Center, only place in central Ohio that had any without a wait. Very happy with it so far.

Where did you buy the Android guy from?
I wish I waited. I just installed my Kingston HyperX3K and also found out I had a bad ram module so I had to go out and buy some new ram:
Just ordered the iPad 4 32 GB this morning. It's for my daughter's birthday. She wanted the full size not the mini.
