\"Hard<\/p>\n

Sorry readers, there will be no review today, due to the sudden failure of the secondary hard drive in my Apple PowerMac G4, which contained all of my por…projects, like the Impulsive Buy’s reviews.<\/p>\n

I do have a backup of the old reviews, but today and tomorrow’s reviews are lost. <\/p>\n

However, to make your stay worthwhile, I’ve decided to have a election.<\/p>\n

Vote to determine what tomorrow’s (Friday) review will be.<\/p>\n

Your choices:<\/p>\n

1. Healthy Choice Beef Franks<\/b><\/p>\n

2. Mountain Dew Blue Shock Berry Citrus Slurpee<\/b><\/p>\n

3. French Toast Pop-Tarts<\/b><\/p>\n

To vote, leave a comment with your choice. Voting will end today at 10:00 pm Hawaii Standard Time, which is 3:00 am EST on Friday and 12:00 am PST on Friday, I think.<\/p>\n

Damn Daylight Savings Time!<\/p>\n

For our Australian, Asian, and European readers, please visit this site<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now as P. Diddy would say, “Vote or Die!”<\/p>\n

What if there’s a tie? Um…We will worry about that when it happens.<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
