  Where_do_you_keep_your_manuals Comment

  We have a box in our bedroom closet that has all of the manuals in it. We started putting them in our office desk but it was taking up too much room. They're all in a box with hanging folders and put in alphabetical order. It's very easy to find them....

  Find_Quality_Antiques_Online Comment

  Yeah, you can get great deals on ebay but then again sometimes you get ripped off. I ended up losing money (about $20) a few years back on an item that was never shipped so ebay has a bad taste in my mouth. I'm just not very trusting of people anymore....

  The_Office_TV_show Comment

  I love The Office!! Steve Carrell is hilarious, loved him in The 40 year old Virgin. There are some people I know that don't like the humor of The Office and just don't really get it. Oh well, I think it's great!!...
