That's good to know. I just have one question though, Who has cookies last long enough to worry about them going stale? I don't think I've ever seen a home made dessert go stale in my house.

At some point over the last few years we were gifted a small bear molded out of terracotta. you soak it in water, pat it off and toss it in your brown sugar. It keeps it soft and moist for several months. When it starts drying again you just soak the bear again.

Which is exactly what should be happening. The problem is that most companies of any size have started using those infernal automated systems that weed out anyone with less than X years experience, so perfectly capable candidates are dismissed before anyone has a chance to see their potential.

Isn't it slightly ironic though, that one of the most fundamental prerequisites for a job opening is the number of years of experience someone has in a particular field? Everyone knows someone in their field who has been doing the job for a decade or more and is still completely inept. Yet, I can't think of any job…

Good to know, I have only stayed in Marriott chain hotels for a number of years and they are completely non-smoking even in their cheaper brand hotels. As a non-smoker myself, I honestly can't stand the smell of smoke, no amount of cleaning and deodorizing can ever mask that awful smell.

In my experience the preferred guest levels or the concierge floor as Marriott puts it are generally reserved for elite members or cost extra at time of booking. Nothing is stopping you from asking, but those rooms are generally kept open for that gold club member standing over in the line with the miniature red…

Now it looks like they took a grand cherokee and left it on a liposuction machine until all that was left was an oddly bulgy, thing that once resembled an attractive car. Gen one was ugly, Gen two is a terrible interpretation of what a miniature Grand Cherokee would look like.

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree on that one, They have pretty weak little four banger engines connected to crappy CVT transmissions with no upgrade options available. Even as an avid jeep enthusiast I can't recommend them to anyone.

Is it possible to be both over and under qualified at the same time? I am currently vice president of a small company and looking for something with more stability in a larger organization. I realize I can't jump into senior management somewhere else primarily because I haven't finished my bachelors.

I'll see that and raise you this:

while I agree with the later two, I think the new 4-door wranglers are a halfway decent substitute for the 110. If only they would drop a diesel or a small v-8 in them then we'd be somewhere.

I can't argue with buying an older 3/4 ton pickup, nothing wrong with buying what's already been made. And if your pickup is the one seen in your avatar, I take my hat off to it. Looks like it's pretty awesome.

We can't forget either when for built two different F-250s in the late nineties. There was the light duty version that was basically an F-150 with a new badge and there was also the heavy duty F-250 that was a rebadged and slightly modified F-350.

I'm not arguing the difference between F-150 and F-250, I completely agree, they are for totally different purposes. My argument is why Ford even bothers to make the F-250. The differences seem pretty minute (and it seems that the difference changes from year to year). Why can't they simply drop the price of the F-350…

I actually don't understand the draw of an F-250/2500 pickup. You either need a moderately sized truck to haul stuff around in the bed and maybe tow some smaller things, or you need a beefy truck to haul and tow larger/heavier items. It seems to me that this in between size only gets you the higher weight of the heavy…

The entire time I was reading 1st gear I was thinking the same thing. Every human on the planet has the same mortality rate: 100%, unless you include the Highlanders. by my simple calculations that would give crappy drivers somewhere in the neighborhood of 180% mortality rate. Does that mean they get to die twice? It…

I would add that nearly every deer strike I've seen (including my own), the deer was not just standing in the middle of the road waiting to be hit. They were almost always waiting on the shoulder until the very last second. The deer I hit came bounding up out of a ditch so my view went from bright blue skies to fur…

Right on, I was stationed at Peterson from 2001 till 2006. I couldn't see the tails very well to know if they were the Guard or Reserve planes in the vid. Keep up the good work, We all appreciate it very much!

Actually, it's not a powder at all. It's a pretty thick red liquid, think something along the lines of the syrup you use to make strawberry milk. The liquid is aerosolized (sp?) by very high pressure air.
