    Contact your credit card company. If you have a good track record, they are usually pretty forgiving of that sort of thing.

    I did, and they said they'd keep things on hold until payment arrived.

    I'm just absolutely stunned that the bank could screw up this badly.

    I realized right then and there that for now I believe its the best thing Will Smith has ever done.
    The correct answer lies in a time before that show, when a young Fresh Prince laid down some mad rhymes with DJ Jazzy Jeff. "Summertime" was his peak. :lol:

    I wouldn't argue with either. Smith is far better when he's not trying to supress his goofy, off-the-wall side. I simply can't buy him in serious role.

    "Too early" for coffee? Does. not. compute. I barely understand when people say it's too late for coffee either.

    Some of us are rather light sleepers. I try not to have caffeine after 1500 during the week, since it has a half life of around 5 to 6 hours.

    I'm thinking about buying some cheap surround sound speakers. I'll have to prop them in weird spots/positions, because I'm not going to rearrange the furniture to accommodate them, but I think it will be worth it. Any recommendations? And mind you, all I have is a cheap DVD player that I own because it plays all region dvds, so my options are probably limited.

    Oh I know, I was mostly joking about the "too late" part, though I do occasionally enjoy the after dinner cup.

    Coffee gives me horrendous heartburn, but when it's prepared right, it tastes better than candy.

    Coffee is rightly the greatest thing ever. I cut down to half a pot (five to six cups) daily a few months ago.

    I think coffee is nasty. I like the smell of coffee sometimes though.

    This is where I get to be a snob and look upon you condescendingly, believing you to have an undeveloped palate.

    I'm sure properly prepared coffee is great, but it's too much of a hassle to prepare, which is only compounded by its dependency-developing levels of caffiene.

    We usually make three pots a day. The last one is usually made at about 9:30 P.M. I could have a cup of coffee just before bed and it wouldn't keep me up.

    Love the smell of coffee, hate the taste. I'm not really at the point where I need something to get me going in the morning, so it's not a problem.

    I don't like drinking coffee, but tiramisu is the bee's knees.

    I'll get a french vanilla cappuccino from time to time, but only if it tastes a hell of a lot like french vanilla and not so much like cappuccino.

    I love coffee, black and strong (insert Airplane joke here). My girlfriend loves hot tea. I don't understand hot tea. It's pretty much tasteless compared to coffee. That is all.

    i am sick. yesterday i had a cold and needed to stay in bed. i just heard that my ex-girlfriend moved in with her new boyfriend....well...one of those days. :|

    For a while, I was doing almost two pots of coffee a day. I still need it if I'm to be expected to think straight and start going through withdrawals about five hours after I wake up.

    But there's no part of me that would want to give it up. I love everything about coffee and it's an addiction I can afford.

    These days, I also take a cup of tea or two in the afternoon or evening. For something a little more soothing, light, while still being something of a pick-me-up.

    This morning I was watching "I Love the 90s" on VH1 and it mentioned The Fresh Prince of Bell Air. I realized right then and there that for now I believe its the best thing Will Smith has ever done. Almost 15 years later that show is still funny and the theme song is still insanely catchy. Plus Smith actually showed a regular knack for comedy on that show as well.

    I think you're all forgetting about this little slice of awesomeness:

    Who dat is? A mean brotha, bad for your health
    Lookin damn good though, if I could say it myself
    Told me Loveless is a mad man, but I don't fear that
    Got mad weapons too, ain't tryin to hear that
    Tryin to bring down me, this champion
    When y'all clowns gon' see that it can't be done
    Understand me son, I'm the slickest they is,
    I'm the quickest as they is, did I say I'm the slickest they is?
