    Perhaps you could get a new wife "off Amazon".

    Interesting thought... I'm sure Bezos would get into that business if charts show he could make money out of it...

    Unfortunately, our account is under her name and her credentials and she'd probably find out...

    The Japanese are developing sex-toy robots that are getting more amazingly 'real' all the time!

    Just wait until you can start ordering THEM on Amazon! :w00t:

    We had two packages from Amazon delivered today in separate deliveries.
    Boycotts are basically stupid not effective. Since I finished two apocalyptic Kindle novels this weekend I probably will order one before midnight today. Or Sci Fi, or Zombies, or ......... See what productive things you can do by staying off PF for couple half days.

    It is about the price of labor which is the largest component of the price of manufactured products. American business corporations thought that they would get the market of the expected growing Chinese middle class.
    Does not appear that it happened. American companies gave up their technology to thevChinese companies and as far as I am concerned did not get quid pro quo.

    And, with Amazon Prime, you get free one or two-day shipping!

    If it is real, it will be late because it was picking out the right dress.

    Anyway, I generally avoid amazon 52 weeks a year. I only very reluctantly buy through them once in a blue moon. In the last year I think the only things I bought through them were a xmas present I could not find anywhere else and a cat toy in the same order. the cat toy was because its price was just enough to get the whole order to free shipping as the primary purchase was a couple dollars short
