Interesting all the atheists are either hiding in the shadows or yelling, "Oh God," and ,"Burn in Hell, Josh!". Quit being hypocrites - either there's a God, Heaven and Hell or there isn't - you can't have it both ways! Here's an interesting thought though: if there isn't a God, Hell or Heaven where these kids can be reunited, then it's "lights out forever," - just like rest of us will get when the time comes. Not much justice for these kids in that point of view is there?

Now you understand why we believe in God, and his righteous justice! Let it be done for them all, and rest in the peace and love that only God can provide, little ones.

Atheists would do well to remember this event the next time they spit on the name of God.

You watch too much tv. Put down the remote and go get some air.

I haven't been to see a new release in years. Looks like the lineup for 2012 won't change my mind either. I am beyond done with the sequels and prequels to re-hashed stories I've already seen. How they make billions in profit is beyond me. I guess people really are that desperate for any form of on-screen entertainment.

No kidding! I live in DFW now and while I don't need to travel the toll roads, my jaw dropped at the price for "peak usage." $3.50 is a rip-off!

Enjoy your traffic jams.... yikes.

12 years ago @ KOMO - Seattle, WA - Best Buy cancels some ... · 1 reply · 0 points

Just because YOU'VE had a great experience at Best Buy doesn't mean EVERYONE does. I used to be a frequent shopper at that store, but after the last time I made a significant purchase, the hassle I got from the store staff, along with the 'you're a tech idiot' treatment and high-pressure sales tactics of the staff, I went looking elsewhere.

Case in point:

I went into Best Buy looking for an HDTV about 6 years ago. After settling on the one I wanted, I finally gave the store rep some attention and asked to buy it - $2600 at the time and I was ready to go, but come to find out, they didn't stock any of this model at that location! It had to be ordered and delivered, which would take 4-6 weeks.

I can tell you - right now - I never walk into a store with cash in my pocket and expect to leave with only a receipt (furniture stores being the exception). I expect to go home with whatever it was I intended to buy.

I walked out and drove 20 miles to Circuit City. They had the exact same model, in stock, for about the same price. I walked out not only with my TV, but with a Bose sound system and all the accessories I would need (cabling, battery back-up, full 4 year warranty, et al). They got $5,000 of my money that day, and Best Buy - well, they got nothing - AGAIN.

I have certain expectations when I walk into any store to spend my hard-earned dollars. I expect courteous, non-pushy, knowledgeable sales staff, and I expect the products shown to be in-stock. I expect competitive prices. I expect a reasonable returns policy (which, frankly, I haven't had to return anything in many, many years).

If a retail chain like Best Buy doesn't live up to my expectations, two things will happen: (1) I will never shop there again, I don't care how good the deal is, and (2) I will go out of my way to steer others away to other buying options. It's called consumer-backlash. Get over it.

Bring on the negatives? Done.

I quit buying anything from Best Buy about 5 years ago, when they insisted that they had to open up, test and "optimize" a new Gateway laptop I was buying. The optimization including setting a bunch of registry crap that I could've found and done myself - online - if I'd wanted to. The kicker? When I told the kid I was going to wipe and reload the OS myself to get rid of all the bloatware, he insisted it would void my warranty! I haven't been back since, and I never will.

It's Newegg or nothing!

I recognized about six people out of all the pictures. The rest of these people all look like crap! Do they stay up for days at a time as part of their work schedule? If they are the definition of "in" and "beauty", God help us all. Yikes.

Ah, I was wondering when the holier-than-thou Morality Police would show up!

Hello, welcome, and have a seat. Syban, extra small for you, the uptight and repressed.
