School hasn't started here, yet, but hits and bids are up already for me, too. Doesn't it feel gooooood?

I did well in July, but once August hit, my hits and bids went down. The last few days, however, my hits and bids are back up! Yippeeeee!

Some areas--such as mine--have year-round schooling, Jack. One track starts in July...

They finally did away with year round schooling last year in my area. Everything is back to a normal school year here. And I agree with the others, bidding and hits are starting to pick up.

Jack, do they run that commercial with Alice Cooper as a father shopping in office max[i think] with the pouting daughter going back to school out there in CA?? Its a pretty cute commercial. She says, I thought you said school was out forever and he says, no I said school is out for summer.

He got way old!!! I heard he said rock n rollers should not be endorcing politicians. He said something to the effect that they are just morons who sleep all day and its treasonous to rock n roll for them to hop on with politics! hahahaha!!!!!!!

There's only one flaw with that commercial - he DID say school's out forever in the song when he said school's been blown to pieces! I do agree, it's a great commercial!
