    The pole dancer is Gary Busey, actor. I'm sure he got a lot of attention. Looks like he might have been drinking!

    I wouldn't have guessed Gary Busey in a million years. He's changed a lot since Gumball Rally. But that was nearly 40 years ago.

    Welcome Mrs. Dex.

    I bought a potable scanner on one of the shopping networks a couple years back. If scanning a page, it is ok but the edges are a little bit distorted. If what you scan is single unattached papers, the I would go with one you feed the pages in. My bother goes around closing home loans. I called to ask him. He said he didn't have one to recommend feeling that they have too many problems. He did say that the paper feed is more practical. With that in mind. I would recommend one that has the best access to service and warrantee. When it brakes, you don't want to be without.
    Another thing he mentioned was that the power converters are not all equal. He lost a machine and an alternator from an inverter that didn't produce pure sine.

    I have no idea what Merrell shoes are. If they don't sell them at WalMart they aren't my style. Lol. I wish my hubby had a "the cheaper the better" attitude too. I don't say too much an out his spending habits though. He could be spending money on something worse. He could also be spending it on something cheaper. Lol

    Thanks for making a call on my behalf. I found a good Brother feed type today on Amazon for like $100. My boss said to get a good one. She doesn't want me to get a cheap one which is pretty cool. Thanks for your help.

    I have an HP Envy 5530 printer. It is an all in one that I can print easily from my phone, laptop, tablet or from anywhere in the world. It has its own email address and it was only $100. Best Buy has an Instant Ink program. I print tons for for and it's $9.99 for ink and if I don't use my quota it rolls over.

    This is a great insight into who she is...

    I couldn't be happier. She is a great Mother, a great Sister, a great Wife, and a great Friend! :)

    I know I pizz her off at times with my Chainsaw (well, anything saw or hearth related) purchases. But at the end of the day? We love each other unconditionally. She is my best friend and I can't thank God enough to have her in my life.

    Thank you all for the recommendations. And Larry, thank you for making that call earlier. You didn't have to do that.


    Not my thread. But I was going to bed and wanted to comment. Sorry babe.. ;)

    I use slickdeals.net. You can set an email alert if one gets posted as a best price so far or "frontpage" deal. I have seen the hand held models many times at great prices as I eyed them for several years. Also look into how you will you use it, some are great at business cards while others are better at full sheet documents. I bought a portable printer from HP a few years ago for my husband to print contracts in his truck and it turned out it scanned quite well too.

    Nice to meet you!

    @Mrs. Dex Sorry did not mean to jack the thread.
    Sounds like you guys have a great love for each other and that is one of the best things in the world. Congratulations on that.
