oh, i was posting at same time. even tho' that cup is shiny and two-toned...i do like it (much better than the one on e-bay).

i'll keep looking and might just get those if i don't find exactly what i'm looking for....darn, how did you find those? i thought i did a thorough search. TVCH never ceases to amaze me.

thanks so much!

Teach, I was wondering if your husband was able to get a Wii for your son. we have opened the one bought for our son and have it hooked up to our TV in the living room to try it out. It is so much fun...don`t know if we are going to want to part with it. I love the bowling and tennis. It actually has me up dancing, lol. If it weren`t for all the kids wanting it for Christmas presents, I`d seriously consider trying to get another one for our use.

has dolphin handles, and other handles. It looks like you have to buy them by the case though! But if you have a lot of dolphin lover friends...!

eta: just noticed that one's designed for children, so it might be too small

Yup, he got one, Dakota. :-) He found that Circuit City managers were the BEST! They told him Friday they would have 15 of them on Sunday; he went in early (6-7 AM). The managers came out around 8 w/the vouchers (everyone in line got one), then at 8:30 they opened up the store for them to come in 2 at a time. All the accessories were set up separately for them...so they were in and out before the doors opened for "real."

The Target people and Meijer people, on the other hand, kept proclaiming ignorance and said they didn't know when they'd get more...then they had them on Sunday too!

We were playing the bowling the other night (DH insisted some sites online said to "try it out" because a few units had been DOA and you didn't want a child to get a "lemon" on Christmas morning) -- and it was FUN! I just hope I have time to play w/DH over the holidays! :-)

kitt, i just saw your reply earlier today. regarding the coffee cups, i'm not going to purchase any since i haven't found exactly what i want. i did find:
http://tinyurl.com/yzpzyp
(see: blue soup mug lug bowl/very last row/middle item)

the photo of the "mug lug" (i know nothing like i described, but it shows the type of coffee cup i'm looking for. this bowl is the same color, texture of my cup i already have. so, if that bowl was a cup (short, fat cup) with a dolphin handle...that is what it looks like.

thanks again. in my search, though, i have found several other items...not cups...different websites (i even found a guy i went to high school with...he is an amazing artist. we have "caught up" through e-mail).

FYI on the Wii. Nintendo announced they are replacing all the straps on the Wiis (due to over exhuberent bowlers and tennis players smashing their tv screens). Dont know when they will be coming in but your retailer should provide them to you. so save those receipts folks

Well, I guess the hand-free can opener from the "as seen on tv" infomercial is a big seller this holiday season. i actually had one in my hand and bypassed it...had to think about it. i then realized it would be the perfect gift for my aging mother in law. of course, bed bath and beyond totally sold out and all 3 kroger stores in my area totally sold out. had to order online and pay extra shipping. aaahhh!!!
at least it is on the way.

Hi, the people at TV Clubhouse are so helpful. I'm looking for a country song and I can't remember the title or artist. The man in in the boat is fishing, he says he will miss his wife and then he gets another bite (I'm going to miss her?) We have a fishing tackle store. Thanks anyone.

Oh, here's the lyrics:

Song: I'm Gonna Miss Her Lyrics


Well I love her
But I love to fish
I spend all day out on this lake
And hell is all I catch
Today she met me at the door
Said I would have to choose
If I hit that fishin' hole today
She'd be packin' all her things
And she'd be gone by noon

Well I'm gonna miss her
When I get home
But right now I'm on this lakeshore
And I'm sittin' in the sun
I'm sure it'll hit me
When I walk through that door tonight
That I'm gonna miss her
Oh, lookie there, I've got a bite

Now there's a chance that if I hurry
I could beg her to stay
But that water's right
And the weather's perfect
No tellin' what I might catch today

Well I'm gonna miss her
When I get home
But right now I'm on this lakeshore
And I'm sittin' in the sun
I'm sure it'll hit me
When I walk through that door tonight
That I'm gonna miss her
Oh, lookie there, I've got a bite

Yeah, I'm gonna miss her
Oh, lookie there, I've got a bite

I have been looking for an item I once placed a bid on ebay for. The item was a hanging utensil holder with the most beautiful utensils. They were brass or copper and had twisted metal around them. I have searched the internet for days on end trying to find them with no luck. I have a picture of a similar rack but not the utensils. It was list on Ebay as Vintage Brass and Copper pot holder with decorative utensils. utensils

LOL... I was gonna post and ask if GAL was pulling someone's leg!!! But then I wasn't sure if I missed an undercurrent or something. But that potrack sure did look like a medieval torture device, or else some weird sort of head protection as one heads into battle!

I have to admit, in my haste, I immediately started a search and then it hit me. LOL tooo funny GAL but you have to know that you are dealing with a crazed shopper! I simply must find those utensils!

Thanks you guys for your help!

eta: now that I think about it I could use one hook for the handcuffs, one for the whip, one for the leathers and oh well now I simply must have the potholder!

Okay I need help. My cousin Barbara will be moving back to New York. She will stay with me for a few weeks or so until we find her a studio apartment. She has no furniture or anything. I wanted to get one of those cardboard chest of drawers for her to use here temporarily. Anybody have any idea where - I don't find them online. I did find one at Amazon, but if anyone else can get me a site I would so appreciate it.

Ginger, you might call a moving and storage place and ask if they have such cardboard items for sale.

I know I've seen such things (yeah haven't we all) at places like Target but I can't find anything on Target.com

I searched on storage at qvc but they seem to have wood or plastic.

found one item on ebay called storage drawers but can't tell much about it.

Nothing cardboard found on Container store search..

The Amazon one looks pretty good, actually and.. lol.. it is from Organize.com .. Gumby has it right!!

Ginger -- way back when when I left my ex, I lived at my friend's place for a month or two while I got my sh** together. I slept on the living room sofa, but kept my clothes in one of these in the corner of my friends' room:

http://www.containerstore.com/browse/Product.jhtml?CATID=62561&PRODID=10015491

Once I moved and got "real" furniture, these bins were still very handy for storage -- inside the closet, in the kitchen, etc.

Just an idea.

I love those bins, Yank! We use one for Caleb's legos and it's awesome. One drawer is for the big stuff, one for the regular square blocks, and one for everything else. When he wants to play in different parts of the house, he can take the one drawer he wants to play with (easy clean up too.)

I was also thinking that you might get something that would be useful later in your own place.. or in hers.

I love those bins. I have them all over my house. I use them to organize my craft stuff. I used one when my niece was here for the summer. My daughter uses one for a night stand and I have one in the guest room.

Yay!!!

And I am glad Ginger is doing well enough to go to Target. I have been a bit out of the loop past couple weeks and am not really up to snuff on who is what.
