I moved from New York to Detroit last year. One thing I can no longer understand here in my hometown is how people drive to bars... You have to drive home afterward! And if you don't go because this makes no sense, everybody else acts like you're from Mars.

So I'm on call this week. Get called while trying to make dinner, have to scramble to get the oil off the burner, remote access is screwed up because some idiot decided to change security policies without telling us...get it fixed. Get called 5 minutes later by my coworker, scramble to turn off the burner AGAIN, find out more shit is broken.
Get that resolved, make dinner in record time so my kid can eat at a normal time...get called again after dinner about a problem I can't do anything about. ...then get called again about it at midnight (waking me up). Then my kid wakes up crying about 2am. And of course, I had a doctor's appt this morning. I'm shocked when they tell me my blood pressure was high. Shocked I tell you. |

Looks that way. I'd make a "people lost posts!" joke, but that's not really important. Hope he's doing alright.

I'm looking for a new phone, that can do video chat without a bunch of lag, that doesn't cost too much. I've got T-Mobile, and don't get a discount on phones at their store. Any suggestions?

The Galaxy Nexus from Google Play store at $350 is the best value to price unlocked unsubsidized phone. There's some decent t-mobile prepaid phones astound $200 as well. |

Yeah. You just have to make sure it's an unlocked phone. Also you want to make sure it supports tmobile 3G if you're using data. Most of the unlocked phones only support AT&T

This actually looks like a really good deal here. Older phone, but effective cost of 169.
http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/p...y-S-4G-Prepaid Unsure if it does video chat, but I'd imagine. |

I was just pleasantly surprised to discover that if someone leaves their gum in one of those waterless toilets and you blast it around the bowl, you can get a little bit of a minty scent out of the toilet.

I want to wear a Falcons Mexico #7 jersey to the Eagles-Falcons game this season, but the NFL Shop still has it banned.

Can you grab a generic #7 and have someone else put "Mexico" on there?

I'm toying with the following Personal Challenge - throw myself into my job 100% for one year and see what dividends it reaps. Don't get me wrong, I do a good job now, but I definitely pursue "life balance." What if I didn't? If I went absolute balls-to-the-walls, I'd have a major impact on my company. Transform it. But there'd be a major hit to time spent on games, girls, sports, socializing. Basically, I'd be a tunnel-visioned beast. Does anyone else here wonder what would happen if you made your job the end-all-and-be-all of your life? Just for a while? No? Well, this IS the thread for random thoughts, right?

"Mexico" is a banned word, so it won't matter for an Eagles #7 (although I wouldn't be caught dead in an Eagles jersey-- even for a joke) Didn't think about VT, and I'll have to give the Cardboard Heroes thing a shot. Tried to link the image, but I do have a t-shirt of Vick in a sombrero with a caption of "I'd hit it". The jersey would be far better though. |

Going from 0 hours of math in my life to 24 hours in a week just to stay afloat in my 8 week college class has been a wee bit more of a jump than I was expecting. Granted, I thought it was a typical 16 week one and I figured it was "only" precalc. It is, but it's been so long that getting back into it has been a bigger struggle than expected.

I haven't taken a decongestant with pseudo-ephedrine in a few years. I took one last night, and have they changed the formula or something? It is only one step removed from straight crystal meth. I only slept a couple of hours last night, and am still wide awake right now. Pseudo-ephedrine has never affected me like that before.

Decongestant rules for me are simple: Psuedoephedrine during the day (Claritin D is my drug of choice), good old fashioned Benadryl at night. Both work really well as decongestants and that way you mitigate the side effects as you want to be awake during the day and asleep at night. SI

I'm taking an online machine learning class through Coursera, and even thought I've done a lot of 3D math programming since school, it's amazing how much linear algebra I'd forgotten when it comes to giant matrices and vectors and the math operations you can do. I think I'm finally over the hump, though.

This morning I was reading my town's little free weekly newspaper. I enjoy reading it, mainly for the entertaining "crime watch" reports or whatever local "scandal" is going on. I like my small town dramas.
One of the cover articles this week was about a woman in my neighborhood who got the West Nile Virus from a mosquito bite. It turns out it was our next door neighbor. OUTSIDE. BANNED.
