Shawna Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 and if you have nice hair, then by golly, I'm gonna too! I dunno about that. Mine is extra-baby-fine with no life whatsoever. The longer I let it grow, the more unhealthy it looks. I'm going to go get it chopped off here pretty soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mars88 Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 For you UncleJoe...a change of subject... How much do things cost, where you live? In my case: A liter of gas $1.06 A 4-liter jug of milk $3.30 Bananas are about $.60/lb Cost of housing has gone up a lot in my area. The average resale house is around $260,000.

Farin Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 a litre of gas (Super) around 1.30€ (1.90$) we usually buy milk in 1-litre packs... around 0.70€ (4-litre 4.10$) bananas are... (I think) about 1.20-1.30€ / kg (0,88-0,95$/lb) housing... no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 a litre of gas: around £1.08, or so I've been told (2.10$) 4 litres of milk: about £2.80 (5.50$) a pound of bananas: something like £0.50 (1$) Now am I completely off and/or shopping at the most expensive places or are prices really this high compared to both of you?

Shawna Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Our gas prices are hovering around the $3 mark (per gallon). The same year I bought my condo (2005), my nephew bought a house. His house was $130,000. Within a year that house was worth $250,000. It's insane. But the market has almost completely died. A gallon of milk is anywhere from $2.89 to $4, depending on the brand. I bet Marc's house is balancing on the half-million line, or better, since he's in SoCal (and it's a nice house!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I think) about 1.20-1.30€ / kg (0,88-0,95$/lb) housing... no idea In Spain, 1 litre gas (Diesel) is 1€ and something. Milk is 75 or 80 cents. Bananas, no idea... A normal rent in a big city (75m2 appartment)= 1.000€ and you´re very lucky. A house could cost some 500.000 €. An average salary= 800€ Yes, we still have the sun...

The Seeker Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I wish! That's the price for semi-skimmed (or was it skimmed?) long life milk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcM Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 regular gas is $3.11 a gallon right now (it has gone down a little) milk is $3.30 a gallon My house now, Shawna, is b/t $730,00.00 and $750,00.00. I bought it 1 1/2 years ago for 740K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 The cheapest gas I see is $2.73/gallon for regular. I really don't pay attention to milk prices...isn't that sad? I've probably been paying more anyway, since I only buy milk in a carton, and sometimes that's hard to find. House prices where I live can vary. When we bought our house, we paid about $250,000 (4-bedroom colonial). We live across the street from the builder and his house could probably sell for a million (five bedrooms, everything upgraded, on the lake).

The Seeker Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) Is there anyone on here who uploads youtube videos and/or is familiar with their copyright policy?

The Seeker Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Okay... well it told me that the company which owns the rights allows their songs to be used on youtube, and the only option I got was "Do nothing - Your video will continue to play uninterrupted everywhere."

Steel2Velvet Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 This is a question for those with adult children. My daughter is 13. When will she turn normal again? If you are one of the fortunate ones, around the age of 32. With a 31 year old son, at least that is what I am hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayzor Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 These are the reasons I've decided to become a lifetime bachelor and never have children.

Houses in Riverside are the ones which seem to have taken the biggest hit in prices. At least, that's where I've seen owners default. Houses by the coastline didn't see any change. Neither did houses in exclusive neighborhoods. Hell, I couldn't afford to buy a house where I currently live at. To rent a room is at least 1K/mo. and the avg. house price is 1 mill USD... although it might come a little cheaper if I paid in Euros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 I read UK will sue people sharing files and downloading music... is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 I'm not sure. It would be difficult for sure, but not impossible. They would be so busy chasing computer geeks sharing music files that people could walk in and out of a bank without a policeman in sight. Sounds like a threat but they won't catch too many people.
