Ortho's Home Defense...

One thing I love about US products are the awesome names. I'd never have guessed this was basically bug poison without googling. Sounds like some kind of Pentagon-approved laser grid...

It does, doesn't it? For years, I thought it was called "Best Defense," but then realized today it was called "Home Defense." Hubby joked that it should come with a handgun.

Well, that's ONE way to stop a bug. :lol:

Suddenly, I'm thinking Starship Troopers... :lol:
 
Picked up my new C30 in Denver on Saturday and have been enjoying the hell out of it since.. Such a sweet ride. Still trying to figure out why my ipod won't sych in with the stereo, but that will come, I'm sure.

There is a setting in the ICE you need to change. I dunno about the yank Volvo's but ours have specific settings. Generic MP3 or iPod. Unless you set it for iPod it'll just give you an error message. It'll recognize it as a portable unit, but it wont be able to access anything on it.

EDIT: If its a iPod Touch, the software might be incompatible. iOS 4.2 is the newest that works. (2009 Volvo S80)
 
^^ Think you are right.. Been reading a bunch of complaints on the Apple Forum about this from Volvo owners. I have 4.2.1 on my Touch.. have been afraid to upgrade since it's an older (3 years old) 8GB model.

Seems that 4.3 is working for a few owners.
 
3 dress shirts - spread collar, french cuff, white.

Boring, I know, but I have a bunch of my dad's cufflinks that I want to wear more.
 
I pre-ordered a bunch of PS3 games in the last week or so (sorted by release date):
- Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Limited Edition)
- Team Ico – Ico & Shadow of the Colossus HD
- Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One
- Batman: Arkham City
- Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (Special Edition)
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
- Assassin's Creed: Revelations (Collector's Edition)

And I got Marley & Me and Fantastic Four on Blu-ray today.

That's as good a reason as any!

Not that one needs a good reason to buy new shirts, of course...

I do. I bought two shirts today to replace two others that finally fell apart. I guess it was about time. I've had them since Regan was president.
 
Bought this necklace for a friend of mine. On the back, it says, "A Friend May Well Be Reckoned The Masterpiece Of Nature"-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Talking of historical clothes, I just ordered a couple of books I've been meaning to get for ages and kept forgetting about/putting off/hoping someone would buy them for me:

Fifty Dresses that changed the World

100 Years of Menswear
 
Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Augmented Edition) - used a Best Buy Reward Zone coupon to get it for $50

The Big Lebowski BRD

True Grit (2010) BRD
 
^ My copy of DX: HR for PS3 shipped yesterday (games are released on Fridays in Europe), so hopefully I'll get it soon. ;)
