Important Two-Liners You May Not Have Considered

December 21, 2000February 17, 2017

Rick Reidy: ‘The number one rap music star in America today is white, while the number one golfer is black.

Joe Cherner: ‘When someone asks you, ‘A penny for your thoughts’ and you put your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?’

Jonathan Levy: ‘Rather than trying to get rid of merchandise cheap after the election, maybe GoreGear.com should have considered actually filling orders placed during the campaign!’

David Rothman: ‘Those wide power-adapters are known as wallwarts. The wallwart-ready power strips are great. I’m partial to the Kensington, which costs about $19 at buy.com.’

Alex: ‘Wait! Search cyberguys.com for item #121 2550 and you’ll find Power Strip Liberators that let you plug in all those fat converters into a regular power strip at half the cost.’

Dan H: ‘Here’s a really useful number that you may wish to add to your junk mail reduction link: 1-888-5-OPT-OUT (1-888-567-8688).’

David Shupp: This site offers software – MYM2QIFW – that can help you translate files from Managing Your Money (and some of the banks that use it) into files readable by Quicken and Money.

Still interested in low-energy light bulbs? Click here for a link from the Department of Energy, for those interested in buying them in bulk (I think 10 may be the minimum) cheap (around $7.50).

FLORIDA: If you don’t like the way we count, visit one of the other 56 states.

Quote of the Day

"We've forgotten all the sacrifices that the people who've gone before us made to give us this wonderful life that we have. We accept it; we take it for granted; we think it's our birthright. The facts are, it's precious, it's fragile -- it can disappear."

Ross Perot, 1988
