Just got a new Valpack and thought I'd note some of the potentially useful coupons for those of you on the UWS:

*RCI discount appliance- 10% off A/C installation (front) and 10% off (back)
*Columbus Wines- 30% off a case, 15% off any organic wine, 10% off any sake.
*TastiDlite- $1 off any reg or large cup or cone, $2 off drinks, $5 off a cake or pie (only some locations have kosher cakes and pies, I think)
*D'Agostino- $40 off first online order of $100 or more.
*Humus Place- free appetizer with an order of hummus.
*Fresh direct- new customers, 25% off first 2 orders; current customers, free delivery with $75 minimum.

Along the lines of yesterday's Eretz deal, though with savings a bit smaller, today is Free Cone Day at Ben and Jerry's.

Here's a question that I'm trying to figure out an answer for:

Why do so many of the great talmudists of the Positive Historical and Conservative movements focus on the Talmud Yerushalmi? (In particular, Zecharias Frankel, Louis Ginzberg, and Saul Lieberman). Is there something about the theology that pushes them to focus on the Yerushalmi? (As a note, this isn't completely random; I'm covering Zecharias Frankel in my class tomorrow.

Barnes and Noble apparently ships so quickly that you can receive the delivery before it ships.

Email I received this morning (09/15), which arrived at 5:18PM: "Your order is now packed and ready to ship."

For everyone's reference:

Under the new MTA fare schedule ($2.25/ride, 15% bonus), the first time you now get a whole number of rides when buying in increments of $10 is when you spend $90. Of course, no one ever buys a $90 metrocard and I don't even think they allow you to buy $90 (or $45) as an option.

At any rate: this has been a public service announcement. If you're starting a new metrocard, try to make sure that you hit $90 purchased at some point (particularly since buying in increments of $20 means you won't be able to fully empty a metrocard until you've put $180 on it).

Anyone have one of these? (laptop with vista x32 or xp?) I need one to install something, and all of my machines have x64 on them.

I was thinking about hosting lunch. Anyone thinking about hosting dinner?

Josh

Like the title says- anyone have meal plans? Or alternatively, not have them? I'm willing to host something, if necessary.

Alright, I know I'm going to be made fun of again, but...I once again have a code for them, this time B1G1 (full price items only, I'm afraid). The code, online and in the stores, is "FREE4U" (no "" marks).

Just as a note- though many of us have them, if anyone's looking, amazon.com is carrying the full buffy series (seasons 1-7) for $69.99.

Don't have any plans yet. I'm willing to host one, if necessary.

Is anyone else getting an Undead Journal header? What do we want? blooooog. When do we want it? Bloooooog.

As of now, I have 1 1st night Shavuot invitation, 2 brunch invitations, and a 2nd day lunch invitation. Anyone planning a 2nd day dinner thing, or should I be thinking in that direction?

Anyone planning anything for this Friday night?

I don't even think that I have any commentary for the moment on this. Besides the post title, of course:

Can you believe this???

Question for people (locals really, since no one else would be interested)-

Does anyone have an interest in a case (i.e. 10 reams) of paper? Staples has them for $20 each after rebate, but only if you buy 2. I could use another one, but 2 is definitely more than I really need (actually, I might be able to do 2, but since I don't know if I'm moving yet,that would seem unwise).

So, for all of those of you who are looking for MS Office 2007, and are a student, and want a low price (IIRC MSDNAA doesn't include Office, in general):

The Ultimate Steal Offer- Office Ultimate for $60. Offered directly by MS.

This public service announcement has been brought to you by the letter J and the number 42.

Many of you already know, but I've been seeing a number of LJ posts that maybe shouldn't be public. Not that they're embarassing, but that you wouldn't want anyone who knew your LJ name to see them. So, a public service announcement: about 30 seconds after posting this, Google will have an archive of it. The same goes for any public posts you make. Be aware.

Do we really need a toilet bowl cleaner under hashgacha?

My better half notes: but if you drink it, drink 203 glasses of water.

I'm wondering whether or not someone just posted a riff on a Python sketch on MSNBC.
