What was the issue with the faulty shipping boxes?

I've already ordered the regular kind, but I'd be interested in the three-in-one also!

I do occasionally drink my coffee black if it isn't super bitter.

I'm actually a daily instant coffee drinker so I'll definitely check this out. Currently I use the Korean instant coffee packets (includes powdered cream and sugar). Since I get these for about 12 cents a packet, it's unlikely I'll be a permanent convert, but I adore the packaging for Sudden Coffee.

Please do what's best for yourself and your health. One possibility is to take a disability leave for depression, or talking to a mental health professional may help you fight the negative thoughts. Speaking from experience, talking to my therapist helps to ground me and prevent my thoughts from spiraling out of control.

You deserve happiness and to be around those that appreciate you. Don't give up the fight.

transitla.com - I had intended to build a better bus route finder, but I left LA 5 years ago (and I assume Google Maps covers it now)

chatsnippet.com - I wanted to create a bash.org style way of saving funny conversations among friends

Wow, I've experienced getting headaches every time that I've gotten a new pair of glasses. I never thought it would be because the pupillary distance was off. I just thought I had to adjust to the new prescription. But half of them were from a brick and mortar store so I'd expect them to get the pupillary distance right.

If it means anything, I still remember APictureOfAGoose's Jarvan/Leona bot lane play.

Thanks for sharing your story. I got into LoL when my friends moved to new towns since it was a way for us to "hang out" while being physically separated. Although I stopped playing, I still like to follow competitive LoL. It's kind of interesting because only now I can relate to how other people follow pro-sports.

So if you're no longer charging consumers for their first deal, are you charging dealerships?

I think I paid ~$60 for the service that they're offering for free now.

Carwoo http://carwoo.com does something similar where the buyer submits what kind of car they're looking for, and local dealerships will submit bids, after which you can send them a counteroffer. The last time I used it was 2 years ago so wouldn't know if they've changed features since then.

Actually the email field is not public so you'd have to add your email to the "about" section.
