I’m curious, where there times when you didn’t use the Gorillapod due to the risk of theft. You are using a proper digital camera, I would be more worried walking a few metres away from a smartphone than a camera. Are there even Gorillapods for a smartphone?

So have you started calling actual cheese something else then?

Flights are more puntual due to an accounting trick. The planned duration of most flights are now about 10% longer than 20 years ago. The varianz in flight times is quite high, so the ailines lengthen the slots to increase the number of flights on time.  A 2 hour flight is often 20 minutes early and the arrival is…

Not true if a flight consists of 2 legs and the 1st flight is a bit delayed. The airline/airport will rush the passengers through to the connecting flight but not the baggage.

“which wax to use on my lawn jockey?”

I think this method works primarily for English and not so much for other languages. English has inconsistent spelling rules and is littered with Homonyms, and Homophones, which leads to many spelling mistakes which a spell checker won’t pick up. The grammar is relatiely easy, assuming that the right tense has been…

I have never needed the use of a toilet plunger, and I have only ever seen/heard of them in an American setting. Having lived in 3 different countries in 2 different continents I am wondering why. Are North American toilets designed differently?

Don’t we all do the things that “make today great” anyay, like going to the pub with friends. This mantra should be “what will make life less akward in three weeks time if I do it today?” which is unfortunately much less motivating!

Then it’s no longer a stew. If it’s cooked in the oven it’s called a casserole.

Absolutely! As he got out the first time I thought he was going to say “I need to go an dry off now” and run back to the truck, but no I’m like “what he’s going to do it again!!!!!”

And for $20 I’d want a version designed for A4 paper.

I saw this on WnW. What struck me is that many of those 10 minute blocks are taken up with work, and this problem is mainly about how we spend out free time. So first of all, cross out all those blocks due to work and commuting and then take it from there.

Another “cost” is disposal. Where I live anything larger than a bin-bag and everything electrical has to be taken to a dump (a big hassle as I don’t have a car) or left out for collection on the one day per year that the council collects such garbage (easy to forget or be away at the time)  or arrange PAY someone to…

The problem is that it’s the people who obsess about creating a beautiful journal, who blog about it. People who just use it to stay organised don’t upload photos and videos about their organiser.

I don’t get bleed through with my notebook which cost 5 Euros, but I am careful with the type of pens I use. My point is though to develop what works for you before you start worrying about having the perfect book and perfect pens. If the Bullet Journal works for you then after a few months it will be worth forking…

Yes!

This is similar to how teachers (both at school and uni) aim to teach.

It might have been a good read to someone who likes Harry Potter, but as a Uni Project it obviously fell short. Part of the assignment ist to set the article in the right context. You can assume the lecturer has a good knowledge of contract law, but assuming that he has knowledge of harry potter is a mistake. Even if…

I can understand that people might want to demonstrate outside the convention, but who are the delegates inside booing Clinton’s name? As elected as delegates of the Democrat party, if they can’t support the Democrat Presidential Candidate they shouldn’t be there.

It’s appropriate that this article is in “Adequate Man”.
