All I lug around is a hose and the attachments. It's more powerful than anything you can buy and it's so quiet you can talk on the phone and vacuum. I love mine. Beam is the brand.

I don't know why I didn't think of that, when I had my cleaning business a couple of my customers had central vacuum cleaners and I loved it. The Kenmore cannister is the closest to it so thats what I've been using for the past 10 years. I mentioned to my husband that I would like to try the new Dyson cannister so he got me one for Christmas, it's the second Dyson I'm returning. I don't know why people like them so much, they're pieces of shit.

They are. Just make sure you get the Beam and get the higher end model. Just make sure he puts the canister and motor in a spot low enough for you to empty it without your face at the same height as the dirt bucket. Matt has the job of emptying that out now because he installed it too high.

I'm surprised you don't already have one!

One of the features is you can make a sweep tray in your kitchen if you want. It's close to the cabinet bottoms and you open it with your foot and sweep the dirt into there and it vacuums it out and no more need to use a dust pan!

Matt installs these at work. Feel free to talk to him about them (BallseyMalone is matt).

I want one.

Let me get with you on that one. My daughter might appreciate it. Shoot me the name and model number.


I have 2 Foreman grilles, and big and a small one (I'd love the one you just got). Those things kick ass! You're gonna love the hell out of that thing.

Well, I would love that thing all the more if the sons of bitches didnt' buy up all the bread today in the stores! We were out and about all over, shopping, returning etc and wouldn't you know it - no Italian bread for dinner!

So, tomorrow brings another try. Tonight, I've got steaks and fresh rosemary. I'll whip up something fantabulous anyway.

I returned that crappy jewelry box. God it was crap. EVERY drawer was twisted (not square), there is a chip in the mirror, a chip in the fake wood foot and the doors are painted fucking cardboard! The velvet wasn't even real velvet and that too was glued in poorly. I felt bad returning it on mom. She spent $50 on that crap in Kohls thinking she got a bargain instead of the $60 one I had on my Amazon wish list. Good thing my birthday is coming up in two weeks! I get to accessorize.

Fucking Kohls - what a gyp joint! I returned the jewelry box and we figured to use the money toward that Keurig coffee maker we want. Bastards have the prices on ALL models hiked up by half and they put them on "sale" for what they retail for normally everywhere else. Fuck them. I won't buy on general principal. We went to Bed, Bath & Beyond and was going to go for the Cuisinart model of the Keurig line but they were out of stock. We settled for the $169 model and we are not unhappy.

Fucking blizzard! Every nit wit that is not prepared nor skilled to drive in this shit is out on the roads. Ruins my fun. I actually enjoy driving in this and shopping in this stuff. I got the stores to myself this way. Goddamn chickens are closing shop early around here. Guess what I don't have? enough milk!

Just PM me your address and I'll send it to her. It's a cheap piece of crap. You know those tchotchkies they have in the aisles in Target, Sears, Kohls etc of things like, nose hair trimmers, manicure kits, electric coffee mugs, etc? That's where she got it. It's a cheap item and if she don't like it or has a need for it, she can re-gift it to a friend or something. It has Spanish, French, Dutch, Italian, German & English.

Santa treated me pretty well this year. Got a pair of hockey tickets, Flyers v Hurricaines club box seats....only way to see a hockey game! Also got a Craftsman Hammerhead cordless hammer.....this will come in very handy. Several dollars from Joan's brother helped us get a coffee maker that makes an awesome cup of joe! Oh, I got a titanium spork! Lastly but not leastly, (sp) I got a sweet spy cam that looks like a cigarette lighter. Can't wait to use this at work so everyone can see what a psychopath my boss is! Who knows maybe we'll put it on youtube and it'll go viral?!?

That asshole will go viral once I get through with him.

You forgot a present....

I forgot to mention a pair of singing monkey balls.

Not a soul on this site can tell me that they are not jealous!

Something for the man who has everything?
