Anyone have any odd shipments through UPS lately? I've got two packages, one from Georgia and the other from Michigan. One was transferred to USPS in Missouri, and the other is in town already, but also got shipped to the post office.
Something up with UPS anyone knows about?
This is weird.
I don't hate the organization, but for one that is designed to be family-friendly, this completely misses the mark. This child is going to be screwed up, and the Girl Scouts will have contributed to his psychological damage later.
I just got off the phone with her. She thanked me for caring enough to write (barbara streisand HR crap).
her answer was a cop-out.
her: "That's a girl scouts of another regional area. That's not our position."
me: "Are you going to put out a statement distancing yourself from this...
A rather unexpected turn of events. I actually got a reply. The director of communications gave me her telephone number and asked that I call to discuss. I'll call her back, but I may use my PC/Skype so I can record the conversation.
I'll post the results.
No matter what happens, there is a little thing called "consequences" that can never be completely ignored, only delayed. Right now, the feds are delaying the inevitable and making the consequences worse for the rest of us.
We are in for some incredibly hard economic times, but they still...
Home Depot carries the model I purchased for 298 w/tax, and they provide a DVD (also available on their site as embedded video) with a step by step install by one of their representatives. Everything is extremely straight-forward.
The only thing I'd say that was left out wasn't...
I've got no problem with a boy hanging out with girls (in fact I strongly encourage it! :)). What I DO have a problem with is giving legitimacy to a mental condition. Schizophrenia is a good example. "I believe I wasn't born in "enough" bodies." Wrong, it's treated as a disorder.
I don't...
I only touched it with the back of my pinky reaching for something else. Thankfully, I wasn't touching the breaker box at the same time. I'd not be typing this if I had :). Some chest pain today, but nothing serious -- the wife made me go to the doctor to be sure :). All in all, my first...

Six circuits of generator goodness. I recommend picking one of these up. no back feed problems, and really easy to install.

I've heard no end of existing laws that few people complain about because they aren't enforced.... but what if the authorities start enforcing them?
It is because of complacency that I believe any law on the books, constitutional or not, should be enforced to the fullest extent in order to...
I can't remember the exact numbers, but earlier this year I did some checking, and I think we are owed (about) 50% to 75% of the amount they owe us. If that's true, we should just "reckon" that portion paid and write it off. That would bring our debt down significantly.
You should come to my GA meetings :). We all sit around and correct the local newspaper together :). Then when we're done, we tap lamps for about an hour.
