My new idea for a product... 2008-02-13 15:29:00 OK, some of you might not have this problem, but I'm thinking there has to be a market.Let me start out by saying I get at least 200 e-mail messages a day telling me I can increase the size of my penis. Now, I'm a girl, I don't have a penis...but it got me thinking.What about all those guys out there that have gotten great results from these pills and acutally need to reduce the size of their penis? Now there's a product idea.Can you see it now... Is your penis so big that you keep tripping over it? Can't find pants that fit? Elephants getting amourous with you??

Homeland Security, Privacy, and My Phone Bill 2008-01-07 10:27:00 The above things are realated, really they are. I know, I was surprised too when all I was trying to do is pay my phone bill.Having just moved offices, I am a bit behind on my own personal admin. I received a call from Verizon last Friday and realized it was time to pay the bill. I usually handle this thru my online account with the bank or directly on the Verizon web site.Realizing that the call was serious, rather than pay thru the bank, which can add a few days to the posting time, I went to log in on their website. Well, for whatever reasons, my login no longer worked and trying to reset didn't work either because the site wanted account numbers that would be on a physical copy of the bill. OK, I can relate to that EXCEPT I get my bills electronically and cannot retreive the infor Read more:Homeland
