If I do win,call it an insurance policy...

There is a current eBay "Dutch auction" listing for up to 20 60 GB ZEN Vision W's in one listing.I've placed a bid for one(the minimum bid was actually some $40 less than what I paid for mine almost 19 months ago,and the listing offers free shipping as well),which should win me one unless someone places a higher bid for one or more.If I do win one,it would be good as it both would use the same software as my current ZVW even though and hold twice as much media as my 30 GB one.If outbid,I actually would take an extended eBay sabattical to more than anything save money in the short or long term.Even without that pending possible jury duty hazard in about a week-and-a-half,I'm not even certain if I'll be still be in the same place a year from now.I'm not calling this an unmitigatable disaster yet,as problem-solver Obama is trying his best to reverse this though there are never overnight-fixes for big things...

Anyway,I accidentally stumbled upon someting interesting on News10.net's weather page.The microcast feature has detailed forecasts not only for major U.S. cities,but also London and Tokyo as well...

Happy birthday to Fuupu Nami Akemi Okamura(who turns 40 already),Hikaru Shidou Hekiru Shiina(who turns 35),and Chiwa Saitou(who turns 28)...
