Thanks for the idea for the headset. I am always looking for something for Jess :)
ReplyDeleteabout number one--the headphones. get a headset/microphone with a usb connection so you can leave your computer speakers plugged in. i paid $35 for a logitech set and i am not doing a testimonial for them even though they work great.
ReplyDeleteMy old lady can do the shopping, I do not own a gay cup coffee maker, I don't like any one playing with the thermostat, I dint drink beer, or by any craps get builds.
