Post by: Mikal on October 03, 2006, 12:00:17 AM: Fru-fru.... hmm, I heard this the other day and it's a good description.... "Imagine if you body had no bones, how else could you walk?" This was a serious question posed to a class. The class title was something about Yoga and spiritualism... That's fru-fru.. So the wood computer is for the new age fru-fru yuppie, drinking lattes', driving Hummer, who is also an environmentalist.

(I'm crossing my fingers for my point to be proven, but this analogy could horribly backfire)

Post by: Jami on October 04, 2006, 02:16:22 AM: Hmm, my last pair of jeans were $255.00 But they are designer so it doesn't count!

Don't they look like they are worth that much..? heh...
