Would you really want a toaster that was so cheap they could still make a profit off your $5? It would burst into flames before you even plugged it in!

I made the leap too. Maybe not i’ll post more 🙂 Since i’ve been a bit of a ghost the last year or so.

Also, if $5 is going to break me i’m in bigger trouble than i could recover from anyway.

I’m in- Iver certainly read a lot more than I’ve posted over the last 3 1/2 years, and I’d be willing to bet that nobody recognizes me- but, here I am. $5 well spent, as far as I’m concerned.

Well, assuming every post is 2 cents, I guess that means you need to make 250 posts per year. Better start working on it.
