I’ve never had an upsell on memberships at Costco - and I’m there every two weeks.

It’s in my kinja handle, but more as a joke about money than my sons. If I had the choice, I’d do it all again even with one just now through potty training.

For my money, I’ve had the most success with OneNote. I’m a Project Manager and the links between Outlook and OneNote are killer for meeting minutes, action items, and running issue logs and task tracking. The flexible hotkey tagging is also a key tool because of the ability to run reports over these tags for summary…

How dare you bring up Trent Dilfer.

WINNER

It’s free, but you’ve got to look really, really hard to find the free ‘General Account’ creation/login on the site.  You’ve got to really push past the ‘Gold’ signups where they want $100+ a year.  Also, if you have an ESPN account, they now transfer so just click the login link and you’ll be good to go.

Absolutely.  There was a guy I went to HS with.  He went to Nebraska as a tailback but his QB wanted the Heisman and never pitched on the option or audibled to a pass when he couldn’t.  Got pissed off and left Nebraska for a D2 school TWO WEEKS before the QB got benched or hurt - can’t remember exactly.  This guy…

Not to reply to my own comment - but I want to make clear:  I do not believe that football should survive in its current form.  It has to change and should change.

I’m with you - completely. I think the only way that football survives is with the receding of the ‘Football at any cost’ mindset. I want to clarify that this was also 20+ years ago, so I hope it is on its way out.

I think part of the backlash is that this is also landing at the start of the season when all the FOOTBAW fans are getting hyped up for the Sundays to come. And here’s this STANFORD kid DARING to remind them that this entertainment has real life consequences for the men out there.

Yep - definitely. I know his name is anathema around here, but I agree with Dave Ramsey - you only get hurt on a roller coaster if you try to get off in the middle. It’s a reductivist argument because the ‘ride’ will go on well after I pull my money out for retirement, but if you’re not retired right now the money…

My oldest is going into first grade and I think they will be learning cursive (Catholic School - so, you know, a bit old-timey).  Otherwise, yeah, cursive and penmanship is probably starting to slip to the side.

Don’t know if this even counts anymore, but my handwriting is poor (and with the time spent typing instead of writing) and getting a bit poorer.  I think I need to take steps to actively improve this, though.  Thinking about just getting a cheap notebook and trying to start journaling in order to focus on improving my…

Starred for the John C McGinley gif.  Carry on.

I know United does this as well - happened to a coworker of mine a while back.

Missed Jersey Devil too.

How about a primer on the upcoming Rugby World Cup *Now Including the USA Eagles*?

Perfect, now fix that rust ASAP so you can run this thing for the next four years of winters while you finish/sell some other in-flight stuff. Get to one project at a time, David, for your sanity and to avoid becoming the proprietor of a junkyard-nee-house situation.

Fuzzy’s Taco Shop does a damn passable fish taco. May not be a name that many have in their area.

Used to work for the company that made Arby’s ‘Roast Beef’.
