Well shmokes doesn't have any kids, so his "life-partner" musta got him a man-ho ;) ;D

I got Seinfeld Season 4 and what the heck do kids find funny nowadays?  Some LAME jokes in these cards ::)

The wife wouldn't let the kids get me the hooker, but then again, I've actually GOT kids, so I think I'm ahead of shmokes thus far.

Nowadays?  I don't think greeting cards were ever an untapped source of brilliant comedic possibilities.  At best, they're amusing.

I think a better joke would be " guess what dad, i didn't get you jack ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---" atleast i would have a laugh.  ;D

Yeah got the stand / base also.

Not sure... Maybe a big MAME(tm) atomic logo. Just kidding. I'll likely go anddo a custom logo (maybe all my fav teams). Can't leave it looking like anyone elses.  ;D

Two handmade cards, one mostly scribbles, the other a spaceship fight.

We went to the movies, saw Shark Boy and Lava Girl in 3D.

We went out for BBQ lunch and got some pulled pork and smoked chicken.

We picked up one of these (http://images.hasbro.com/common/images/products/60302_imageMain400.jpg) and spent the rest of the afternoon playing.

Then my wife made an 18" chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich and we ate that.

It was a good day.

I was checking out one (dunno if it was the same model/version) at Sam's Club, and man, I'm hoping it's just because it was a demo, because it wasn't finding ANYTHING I was putting into it.

Does anyone know if the demo's only let you find stuff in certain areas, do you have to load/add any other maps....and if so, WHY the heck do these marketing dolts NOT customize the demos to the area?  How the heck am I supposed to know any addresses or places in San Francisco, of all places?

I want the Road Mate, but if it's as annoying as the demo, it can rot on the shelves
