We have similar experience. In London we booked 4hrs in the Yotel "capsule" hotel at the airport for shortly after we landed (about 6am local time.) A 90min nap, a good shower and change of clothes and we were ready for the day. There aren't many things more refreshing than a shower and a change of underwear. As…

Forgiveness is free - give it away every chance you get.

Are the "Negative"/"Print" captions backwards? The right one shows a much better depth of colour. I'm no photoshop ninja but I'm pretty sure I could "tame" the right one back to a nice shot faster than I could 'punch up' the left one. Also the text on the box on top of the fridge is readable in the right one.

We were in Toronto visiting family and cut through the university one morning. What a great use of space, right? It sure beats the usual square acre of stands. You can't see in this photo but they're also very close to the building entrance but the space between them means walking isn't blocked.

Now if they could design a stable, upright one (like these are Ryerson Univ. in Toronto), it'd make a better use of space.

Almost 5yrs ago - about the time we finally got rid of the landline too. One day I walked into the living room to turn on the TV and get the weather. It was on the channel where we last watch Amazing Race - 3 months previous.

We don't have children but I have to say, over the years, the true melt-down is pretty darn rare. I refuse to scowl at the kid who talks too loud because, well, I'd have to scowl at the drunken, over-loud frats on the other side of the room and, at my age, if I scowled any more I'd start looking (more) like a…

I've always said "Good" isn't necessarily better than "Evil", but "Evil" is a heckuva lot more fun.

How long before Google decides it's not worth supporting and pulls the plug? (Geez the help page still says you can create a "Feed" alert and access it via Google Reader.)

Dear "Can I Drug Them?"

Maybe it's because the phrase elides so well: assless chaps, assless chaps.

I'm pretty sure Feedly occasionally "forgets" to sync. I'm a fan of "scan the headlines and mark all read" and, likely to make it worse, I use the browser-plugin and the Android app. I'm pretty sure sometimes items I've marked read with one just show up later in the day in the other.

Nope sliced out and stuffed in the jar. And, yes, the outer edge is wider than the jar mouth. I supposed he's right though - it's just gonna get banged up anyway.

I have a coworker who brings his pie (yes a slice of pie) stuffed into a Mason jar. I mean, it doesn't actually harm the pie or the eater but still... kinda disturbing.

I'd test this a little before going whole-hog. Vinegar is a mild mordant and could end up actually "setting" some of the stains even more firmly into the carpet (ie a stomped on blueberry or strawberry.)

I never book bulkhead seats (no underseat storage and I'm short so the extra legroom's not that big a deal) but the behavior of people in that row sometimes makes me cringe. We were on a 12hr flight (Tokyo->Toronto) one row behind the bulkhead row. A middle-aged couple in the bulkhead row seemed to equate "extra leg…

You're never woken up in a bathrobe in the middle of Red Square.

If you mean "sharing" in the sense of collab updating, oneNote allows you to share a link to the Notebook and, shared correctly, they can read, update and annotate the page. My team works this way.

Yes, a few times - when something about the interview just doesn't feel right - the job spec doesn't seem to be what we're talking about, the interviewer seems flustered when you ask about something other than the job-spec (ie the company's charity fund-raising.)

And while they're soaking, there's nothing getting in the way of cleaning those windows.
