Indeed! Unfortunately, the back of the couch revealed a few misplaced DVD covers and something unspeakable that might have been a peanut in a previous incarnation.

Sadly the passport is slowly becoming a fancy yet dull photo album for the last 6mo of its life.

Combined with Makes Your Own Aventure - make the message a puzzle with multiple interpretations that lead to multiple next stops. Teams running all over the city in completely different routes. How awesome would that be?

Love it. The only issue for me is dispatches of reminders get lost. I'll clear a reminder on my phone and 50% of the time Chrome will remind me again hours later at home.

"Engagement" is the new "paradigm" - a buzzword management picked up from HR consultants — oops "talent-strategists" Management gets a set of easily remembered sound bites they can toss out and feel they're somehow in control. We don't have a management problem, the drones just aren't engaged.

We've never had to fly to the next 'stop' (so this only works if you're driving to the new place, I guess) but we have always moved with a small (rental) van and taken the minimal needs (including a futon.) It's enough clothing, a place to sleep, a place to sit, the computers (which I'd never trust a moving company…

On some sites, I can sort the customer reviews from worst to best. (I don't remember the last time I looked at a 5/5 or even a 4/5 until after I'd booked)

I had one who set my bed on fire - while I was in it.

Wow, R. I didn't even bother to put it on my resume. We'll fix that now won't we?

But even the math-phobic would take cold comfort in knowing that optional cruise they're considering is 232 loaves of bread - there's no context to the number.

Isn't it easier to to compare the currencies before you leave and remember the rough size difference? Right now about 100 Japanese yen is about can$1.05 so about 5%. I'm in Tokyo and look at the menu and see steak for 5000 yen. "Gee is that steak worth $50?" I dunno, remembering the prices of arbitrary things seems…

It seems to be getting hammered pretty badly by the LifeHackerEffect. Maybe they needed to test a server under load? (I'd always assumed that's why io9 has a gif party every Friday ... that and because it's fun.)

I had very "light" root needs for my Nexus 5 - for some reason Google+ (which can't be uninstalled without root) was misbehaving by chewing up 55% of my battery each day. That and a health claim mobile app that kept leaving the claim form photos outside the "sdcard" area and didn't give me an option to free up the…

Watermelon white wine, maybe. Yeah, that'd work.

The cumulative mass of the sticks amounts to approximately 70% of the initial weight on the watermelon slice (dependent on the space that is left in between the holes). The leftover part with the holes is perfectly fit for human consumption: don't waste it.

My sweetie works at a store, let's call it "Mike Hells", and for a while they have "Buy 2 get 1" promotion. During the promotion, he said he spent at least 25min with one customer who kept holding up things saying "So, you're saying, if I but twooo of these, I get onnnneee free?" "Yes, ma'am, anything with that…
