help me
advice needed----
I am moving my kid to Georgia. I need to get a car moved, and a small amount (like a bedroom's worth) of personal belongings. I have no desire to drive. We found a company that will move the car, but they insist it be empty. Anyone with experience moving car and stuff?

Adder, I have to go with Thurgreed on this. She looks great (though something about that dress makes it look like one boob is bigger than the other). The others you mention also look great but there is room for more than one great looking actress that age.

With a car and that small amount of stuff, driving seems like the best option. But since you don't want to drive..... when I moved cross country with what sounds like the same amount of stuff (and no moving allowance), I mailed it. UPS would probably be better than USPS but it's always good to compare.

For the car, hire a car-moving service. It's a lot cheaper if you let someone drive it for you (when I checked years ago it was about 1/3 or 1/4 the price). They're insured and responsible, so it shouldn't be an issue (if you have a car that's an issue then pay the extra).
For moving, most moving companies do small loads. Also, PODS and other storage box companies move stuff from one city to another in those big driveway crates. That might be another option.

Isn't that just the way she's turned?
Yeah, for 51 pretty damn good.

It wasn't a fiasco but none of the performances were particularly exciting. They've got a final group of people who all can sing well but, with the exception of Allison and Adam, are vanilla pudding. Even those 2 were fairly vanilla last night.
As for the article about Cashman posted by Gatti, why would the author think a 28" penis would be an asset in getting laid?

PODS is too big. The net warns about bad car transport places, but if they're insured they're good? any recs?
Fugee, do I seem the kind of person that drives cross-country?
(actually it's a small car and I worry about it pulling a trailer over the mountains).

You're from Michigan. You must have a boat. Boats require trailers. Surely you have some experience.
Be a man. Like Flower.

He doesn't even have Rose drive and kick it to Gordon. Just give Gordon the ball, run around looking confused and then force up a stupid shot and hope it goes in.
If he had any brains at all, Da Bulls would have won this series already. And it's even less complicated than what I wrote above. At the end of the game, know where the shooters are. Double Pierce. Deny Ray Allen (one of the greatest jump shooters in the history of time) the ball. If he gets it, SWITCH ALL PICKS. Noah blew this simple principle three fucking times this series, sticking so close to Perkins that he created a makeshift picket fence to block out his teamate. Hell, Hinrich had to literally push him to get him to close out (late) on the last shot of game 2.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2LvvNzmv90
Watch as Noah fails to fucking switch again in Game 4:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KMPgnAxmHI
Either he's a complete idiot or Del Negro can't coach or both.
And I love Rose, but Rondo should not be putting up these numbers against him.
On the other side of the country, watch out for Denver. I gotta give Billups his due. He has made Denver into a much better team (although I don't know why anyone would think Iverson and and Melo on the same team works).

Google maps says Detroit to ATL is 720 miles/11 hours, which is not exactly cross-country. I've knocked out more miles than that three straight days. That's one long day. Take turns driving. She can sleep, you can blackberry when not driving. Get a cheap flight back, eating the backend on the ticket if you need to.

USPS book rate is awesome for any books that are included the "small amount of stuff" described in Hank's post.
Why not make the kid drive em's own car across the country?
