Eh, it's way too cold to be out on the Porch right now. It definitely doesn't feel like spring today.

My Norton subscription expires in a week and I'm debating if it's worth spending the extra $60 to renew it. Has anyone tried Microsoft security essentials? Is it any good especially on Windows 8?

Stay away from Norton. All it does is hogs up your computer's memory, and it's very difficult to remove from your computer. Microsoft security essentials isn't bad. There are also good free antivirus programs out there that are TONS better than Norton. Google around and see what's best for you

If I remember correctly, I was going to install Microsoft Security Essentials on my sister's Win8 computer, but there was some message on Microsoft's website saying it was unnecessary. I'm not exactly sure what it said anymore, but it was something like that.

McDonald's fish McBites.   

I hate that commercial too. It's so obnoxious!

Out of curiosity, anyone know the font that's being used for Saturday in IceManNYR's image posted above?

EDIT: I was thinking Verdana or something similar...

That can't be Verdana. Verdana doesn't have a curved tail on the R, so I'm guessing it's some variant of Frutiger, like on most of their other graphics.

Is that Kim on that second photo? I can barely recognize her with that hairdo, and I'm definitely not a fan of it.

That is her. I remember she dyed her sometime last year. I'm not a fan of her hairstyle either.

I took the first picture outside of my school Tuesday afternoon when it was snowing. The second one was taken outside ny window last Thursday night, after it had snowing (and it was probably still snowing).

I don't know why, but when I first found out about Kyla Grogan, I thought she was ugly. But I decided to Google her, and you people are right, she is attractive. And it's good that she also wants credentials to back her looks up. That's all I have to say. I don't want to argue.

Physical texture and musical texture are quite different concepts.

Could you speak a little louder please?

Are the 2-minute LFs only on certain dayparts right now? Yesterday, I saw that the LF at 5:28 PM CT was only :90.
