All this kindle smugness reminds me of a South Park episode where everyone was feeling superior because they drove  Hybrids.


I have used my Kindle to find my way when lost, check email, movie times, the weather, instant message, check the head lines, listen to music and oh year read tons of books.

you can IM!!! Vampy I need details about that.

Yes, I am guilty of sporting my kindle. In class when the professor asks us to refer to our notes for some reason. Then there's the gym, the cafe, in line....this can go on and on. My K came in handy in the hour and fifteen minutes (on two different occassions) I stood in line at the registar's office to talk to a guy for less than a minute. My K goes everywhere with me

Wow, I feel inadequate. I have only used my Kindle to read a lot of books. Some day I must expand my horizons.

That was me too until 3 days ago.  I have been Reading Whisky Rebels for the book Klub and decided to wiki the Whisky Rebellion for some extra background info.
5 minutes later, I had to do my first "hard reset" since I got kindle 9 months ago!

Think I'll stick to reading Undecided

Mom of 4:  that first reset is a heartbreaker.  I had to do it when my feedbooks got stuck...It nearly killed me to do it.  It made me feel like my beloved Kindle lost its virginity...lol.

Sheesh... Bast is such an innocent: he is still a vrigin (never been reset), rarely leaves the house (and then doesn't get a chance to be shown off), and is only used to read/buy books... Poor unwordly Bast!

ALMOST...come on; you can admit it...we're all "friends" here; we'd never mock you (us; never).  So, admit it...you DID pee your pants.  You did didn't you?  Hey everybody...Debbie peed her pants laughing!!  Pee pee pants...pee pee pants; not laughing at you but with you.

No matter how much you wiggle or how much you dance; the last few drops always land in your pants.

Kidding.

Sorry, it's always best to go too big instead of too little.  My sisters and cousins seem to have the same problem.  It must be a girl thing.
