Dollar Rac Kennedy Djamaica Automobile Rental
Just a cheap rental in NY. Got through Priceline.
· $189.92 credit card purchase

· $17.95 credit card purchase
Auto Europe Us
Best (least expensive) service I've found to use for car rentals in Europe.
· $442.42 credit card purchase
impulsebuyer Do you mind sharing which car you rented and for how long? I'm curious to see how far that amount goes across the pond.
boburling I ordered a 4-door economy car, manual, with AC, but they didn't have one, so I wound up with a larger car. Don't remember the make or model. It was diesel, however. Always best to get diesel in Europe. Fuel is much less expensive.
Ticketmaster
For David Gray and Ray LaMontaigne
· $138.25 credit card purchase
girlfriday David Gray! I haven't listened to him in years. Used to love him. How's his new stuff?
grantcline Same as before, like sticking a fork in your eye... :)
boburling He was great. The old stuff sounds even better when he's doing it in person.
boburling No, Grantcline. The old stuff is still amazingly good when sung live. Live really makes a difference.
grantcline sorry, not trying to offend you, just not a big fan... and I am not always good with the "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" thing... the filter is broken.
saunieindiego David Gray is AMAZING live. So much emotion!
Emily Barker & The Red Clay Halo - Despite the Snow
This is the Wallender theme. She's English.
· $0.99 song "Nostalgia" from iTunes
boburling I'm not awesome. I just like good music, and girlfriday and I have great taste!!!

This is funny. Casa Orinda is where my wife and I celebrated our 40th anniversary. It's a restaurant, and--as far as I know--has nothing to do with Court Appointed Special Advocates.
