Adam Audioholic Jedi Jul 5, 2006 32,066 0 113 Tucson, Arizona Feb 23, 2014 #11,682 For my mom's birthday, I ordered her flowers from FTD. I did it because I got an offer from ShopRunner for free delivery. Okay, in short, the order page (with the "Submit Order" order) button showed free delivery and had a total price...but after I clicked that button, the very next page showed that I was charged $20 for delivery (and the total price was $20 higher). Okay, that's not right. I assumed it was an honest mistake, so I contacted them. They asked me for the promotion code, and I told them that there wasn't one and that it was a direct link from an e-mail. Their response? "We are pleased to inform you that we cannot apply the promotion without any code given." Oh, you're PLEASED that you stole $20 from me? Grrrr. I'm a polite guy, and I don't go off on people lightly, but that riled me a up a bit. I can only imagine that it's some poor phrasing due to either English being a secondary language or someone just clicking a combination of boxes on an automatic response form, but it still p*sses me off.

I guess it drizzled a bit for a minute or two so they have to stop for a couple hours. If the guys in MotoGP can do 200mph in the pouring rain with an inch of water on the track on two wheels, you'd think the pusswads in NASCAR wouldn't stop a race because of some thunder 100 or so miles away.

I swear there are more and more motorcycles around here all the time. I think it is really gaining popularity with the younger kids and I dont believe it has anything to do with gas prices, they are everywhere today.I also notice a lot of Harley Davidson's, more than I am used to seeing.

A thoroughly dominant performance by....oh, wait.....never mind.... Seriously though, I feel a bad for the US team. The tournament had gone so well for them; if Canada hadn't won it, I would have been happy to see the US team win it. Reactions: sawzalot

Adam Audioholic Jedi Jul 5, 2006 32,066 0 113 Tucson, Arizona Feb 23, 2014 #11,687 Congrats, Canada! I say that sincerely, even though I couldn't care less about hockey. But, two golds is impressive! Do most of the guys play pro hockey in the U.S.? I don't mean that as an insult...just an innocent, ignorant question.

All of the Canadian & US players play in the NHL. They're all over North America. Two of the best US players, Phil Kessel & James Van Riemsdicke (sp?) play for Toronto. Sidney Crosby, from Nova Scotia, plays for Pittsburgh. It must be odd for the players to go from being on the same team to playing against each other.

Once you spread some thanks/rep around (ten other people, I think), you can hook him up with positive rep. You only give out half as much negative rep as positive, so it'll still be a boost.
