Why is walking through a park with a GPS receiver somehow less noble than walking around without one? When I've hiked in the past, it was often with a destination in mind, be it a nice view or a waterfall or a campsite. Having a goal doesn't lessen the experience.
You had a good post right up until your point about the expense of delivery. That was just weak.
How often do you buy something that big? I've never had to buy a fridge since I don't own my own house, and I've only bought one TV in my life. And it's not like I could fit something that big into my relativly large car anyway.
I think it's considered gambling when they actually take your money away when you lose.
The game is irrelavent as to whether it's gambling or not. Games like roulette of craps aren't forms of gambling until money is involved. It's just as easy to place a bet on a coin toss as it is to bet on a chess match, and they're both forms of gambling.
The casting change in The Sum of All Fears was the lease of it's problems... The biggest problem was that they had to drastically rewrite the story and the characters in order for it to make any sense at all as a stand alone movie.

Give them a bill, since they're basically renting your truck. If they balk, tell them you'll be happy to drive the Uhaul that they're going to rent.
Tell them to buy a PC from a local computer shop you frequent
That's all well and good assuming that all of the 'local' computer shops haven't been driven out of business by the likes of Best Buy.
And in case it's not obvious, *never* buy anything from BB if you think you might actually need the warranty. I've yet to find any first hand evidence that BB even has any intention of honoring their warranties.
The thing is, it's not always illegal to cold call a mobile phone. The law specifically exempts companies with whom you have a prior business relationship. For instance, your mobile provider can call you to try to get you to buy new features.
Then I take it none of you have ever seen Ganjasaurus Rex. It's about a Gozilla-ish dinosaur that's addicted to prehistoric weed. Draw your own conclusions.
I'm probably going to hell for it, but I always had to laugh at customers who looked all proud of themselves for giving an obviously fake name and address after they'd just written a check with their real name and address printed on it.
Linda Tripp bought the telephone recorder that she used to record her calls to Monica Lewinski from Radioshack. They tracked down the employee that sold it to her and he testified in court that he had told her that it was against the law in DC to record a call without the other party's knowledge.
RS employees aren't supposed to sell to a customer if they suspect that the products will be used illegally. When I worked there, we had an ongoing debate about selling items that we knew the customer would try to use illegally but would fail.
Back when I worked at radioshaft, when I was bored I would look through the inventory to try to find the highest and lowest markups. IIRC the lowest markup was a 30" tv with 5%, and the highest was a button cell battery with a 218% markup.

I assume it's because it's not considered gambling. It's a prize, and it's treated differently. This seems to cover it.
The z23 only comes with a black cartridge. If you want color it doubles the price.
It's not illegal to discriminate against stupid people. At least, not yet.
Use whois to look up a domain. You see any email addresses listed?
Jesus, did you even read the post?

The "question" is not the number of maritime losses, but the circumstances surrounding them.

You should have quit while you were ahead.
Maggie could be a stand in/replacement for Kirsten in the movie.
Ew.
I find having a snailmail address qualifies a person for Mensa.
Are you saying Mensa discriminates against the homeless?

And money. And every once in a while a small child or pet.
Well, you see, Bush DOES suck, and Clinton doesn't.
Right. Clinton *got* sucked. Big difference.
Small businesses with fewer than four speakers per room and no more than six speakers total are exempt from paying royalties.

Um, you can't get Buffy season 5 and 6 on dvd anywhere. Doesn't exist yet...
