Chit Chat Thread for the week of December 8, 2008

yeah!!

(just practicing ...)

You have to be fast here to be number 1

According to my clock it's 10:31 on the east coast and she hasn't posted as of yet.

It really great fun to watch this thread to see who is going to be first and then read the comments.

Starting to get cold, but the NFR is in full swing

#6, and I hope this is a legitimate thread! Where's Miss POI??

NUMBER ONE on the LEGITIMATE THREAD!!

Good morning everyone Starting to snow here Any one want to quess what time Miss POI will post this week? I say around 9 to 9:30 No peeking Miss POI.

Sorry Miss POI I won't get envolved again wasn't trying to take your place.

No harm done sweetie. After I posted my thread I went to unread and I thought that I had forgotten to put the year on my post and then I was welcomed with your little Monday morning surprise.

Miss POI

Just thought I would see how many would post before catching on that it wasn't you that posted.

I agree. It is like a new sport.

I got my GPS this week and I am very nervous.

Couple of times lost SAT connection and voice direction did not correspond to the text direction.

Do i need an updated SW version.

... got to get up earlier next week !

it's the dog's fault

Stay healthy!

Norm

No rain for weeks around San Antonio, just a lot of clouds and a cool 72 degrees.

18 degrees in NJ this morning. Too cold for me!

Regular gas in Rock Hill, SC in the $1.40s today. Wasn't long ago it was $4.00.

Hello poi factory made the top 20

What was the surprise??

don't know if you are asking me, but i didn't say anything about a surprise

Happy Monday

Miss POI went to post the Chit Chat thread this morning and it had already been posted by one of our more silly users.

Miss POI

Lookin Good Miss Poi Nice Pic you finally made the Change LOL

So let me get this straight. You were going to post the post but the post was already posted by another poster so rather than posting a new post you just posted to the post that was posted already?! (LOL)(Who's on first?)

GEE, why didn't I think of that!

Name the right fielder from the classic sketch...

...in southeastern Denver tonight. And into tomorrow. Up to five-inch accumulation expected.

It's a good thing I've kept a four-wheel-drive gus-guzzling Tahoe for a weather like this.

Miss POI - I like your new look!

Rain in Chicago in December - not uncommon, but a lot of accidents this morning because of it. Actually, the news reporters blaming it in black ice.

Our neighbors to the north have had a little snow overnight - up to a foot in the Wisconsin Dells area and nine inches or more in the Madison area.

Sidewalks are flooded with the rain and melting snow in Chicago (Edgewater). But there's talk of snow/ice this evening! Hooray!

p.s. note the sarcasm, please.

I kind of liked the enthusiasm.

ohhh well..better luck next week.

Hello Everyone,

We've had our nuvi200w for a year now and I'm just now getting some poi files. I drive for car dealerships so I am always going to new cities trying to find where I am to pick up or drop off vehicles. My hubbie got the GPS for me so I wouldn't get lost.

Have any of you named your GPS unit? We named ours Gabbie Garmin because sometimes she can be a bit intrusive with repeating the directions too often.

Has anyone ever tried to get your GPS unit to accept a address such as 26485 25 1/2 Rd. Mine would not accept that type of address when I tried to type it in.

Well that is me for now. It is nice to meet everyone.
Jackie

Anyone here posting message while at work?

Yes

Hope you enjoy the site. Some times you will really have a fit with addresses. just have to play with the wording to figure out how Garmin has put them into the maps. maybe if you can give us the whole address we can help you figure it out. Looking at mapsource just now, which is the same as the maps etc that the unit maps have shows a 25 1/2 rd.

Only with my BlackBerry. Never with my work computer.

I finally received my Garmin 765T from back order. Now the fun begins.

What to load up first...?

I think changing the car to a pizza is in order. (I wonder if I can ask Aarrgghh to make a vehicle icon that looks like a squirrel?)

Go Cubbies!

Get a Blackberry Bold. Been thinking about it all day today and still can't make up my mind. Too darn expensive.

Once in awhile..

Good Morning everyone

It is going to be a beautiful day in central Florida.

Yes, it is, but tomorrow sounds like a wash-out. We need the rain.

This weekend it was 8 degrees (not factoring in the wind chill), today it's 60 degrees and on Friday we're getting back the cold weather along with sleet and snow.

N.E. is living up to it's "if you don't like the weather, wait a minute" reputation.

My wife and I decided at the last minute to book a trip to somewhere warm. So yesterday afternoon we booked a trip to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Leaving VERY early Monday, December 22 and will return at a more reasonable hour on Friday, December 26. We're both burned out mentally and need this respite.

Unfortunately (or fortunately), there will ve no need for a GPS since we plan to sit at the pool or on the beach all four days and do NOTHING!

Now to find someone to take care of the cat!

>>N.E. is living up to it's "if you don't like the weather, wait a minute" reputation.

We have that in Iowa too.

I've heard "wait five minutes." in Colorado.

Hi jkaplan, you should love it (depending on the hotel), we have been to Bavaro beach 5 times (one bad hotel) and can't wait to get back.

We are getting cold rain today. Although the temperatures dipped into the mid 60's for the past few days, we have been enduring cold, freezing temperatures for the past few weeks. It would be nice to be going some place warm to get away from the cold.
