Upgrades have not been done yet... Just stripping the site in preparation... You'll know when the upgrade is done - I promise... Patience young grasshopper... Double T PS: Good Thread Freddy...

I know that's a common perspective here in the US... But not one I necessarily agree with... I for one "invest" in my son [and daughter in-law] now, today, while I'm living... My wife & I enjoy spending on them... They are both 21, and a gas to be with... Took them last year to Mexico with us... Bought them a car... And continually look for ways to bless them... If there's not a single cent left for them when I suck my last fresh breath of country air... But I lived a full life with them while here... I say well done... justmy2centsforwhatitsworth Double T

Excellent! Double T

Don't have to go to TZ to answer the question... Had dinner the other evening with Nanug at the Snow Goose in Alaska... He was wearing his Genuine Vintage DRSD... Double T

@F Nanuq is not Human... He's an alien from a planet that has an average temperature of -150... So the Alaskan weather is nuttin to him... TT

@Yahoo You need to put on the brakes... You have a total of 3 posts on this Forum... All 3 today and have been directed at a Dealer... This is your ONE and ONLY warning...

@Hambone One should never assume how members choose to contribute... Some choose Supporter Membership... And some simply choose to Donate... Our community is setup to receive both... Please don't let an icon under a Avatar imply an individuals choice to support or not to support... TT

Ummm... Scoop... Totally disappointed in you... "Advertising" is a part of Marketing... So indeed the "Lighting" could be [and is] considered "Marketing"... Here is the USA we call it "The Display"... Advertising is really the part of the Marketing Campaign that brings the customer into the Store... Double T PS: I'll quote one of your famous sources: Wikipedia Marketing is a societal process that is needed to discern consumers' wants; focusing on a product/service to those wants, and to mould the consumers towards the products/services. Marketing is fundamental to any businesses growth. The marketing teams (Marketers) have the task to create the consumer awareness of the products/services through marketing techniques; if a business does not pay attention to their products/services and their consumers' demographics, the business would not be able to endure longevity. Marketing tends to be seen as a creative industry, which includes advertising, distribution and selling. It is also concerned with anticipating the customers' future needs and wants, often through market research. Advertising is a one-way communication whose purpose is to inform potential customers about products and services and how to obtain them. Every major medium is used to deliver these messages, including: television, radio, movies, magazines, newspapers, video games, the Internet (see Internet advertising), and billboards. Advertising is often placed by an advertising agency on behalf of a company. Advertisements can also be seen on the seats of grocery carts, on the walls of an airport walkway, on the sides of buses, heard in telephone hold messages and in-store public address systems. Advertisements are usually placed anywhere an audience can easily and/or frequently access visuals and/or audio.

Did somebody say "Doo"...

Yes indeed... Happy and Safe New Year to all... Double T

Many factors go into a Great cup of coffee... It all starts with the Grind... And for me, ends with the Froth... Grinder Cuisinart - Has awesome flexibility in the Grind... I for one go for a fine grind for a much stronger flavor... Coffee Maker Went with the Krups because I like Stainless instead of Glass... Hold the heat longer and allows you to turn the warmer off as to not burn the Coffee... It has all the programmable features, but I don't use them... Won't pre-grind the evening before, no way no how... Kills the flavor of the Bean everytime... Espresso Maker Went with Breville... Small footprint, and is a work-horse... Family Shot My idea of a great cup of Joe is... Two Shots of Espresso... One 1 oz. Shot of Torani Vanilla... 5-7 oz. of Coffee... And a quarter cup steamed half & half... Might be boring, but tis the way I start off every day... Double T

@Narikaa @All These things happen... Nothing to worry about, you'll have your fix in no time... In the mean time, try relaxing and doing a little browsing while you're here... Double T
