Everything you said x 100. Why expose your own money if you don't have to? Why give up the points of using a credit card? What, in other words, is wrong with you? ;)

The bank required that my dad sign the mortgage along with my mom to buy our house. They were divorced and she was the one buying it. In 1982.

The fuck you say?

Alton Brown also withdrew his remarks in a later show.

Lexapro FTW!

Is it, though? It's increasingly privatized as part of public/private partnerships (3P). What is it in SF?

Mark Hamill! "Guys and dolls, we're just a bunch of crazy guys and dolls"

Recipe?

Where can I buy some leftover brandy? My house doesn't seem to have any. Ever.

I use my laptop outside in bright sunlight by turning the brightness all the way off (so the screen looks black) and wearing polarized sunglasses. You have to be sitting at a particular angle to the sun, but when you are, it's just as readible as indoors with backlight. Saves battery, too!

YUP.

I am currently sitting in the last session at the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing Science conference this year and would like to applaud this young woman for her stand. There was a prof from Purdue talking at our keynote this morning and I believe I will track her down and tell her to watch for this one!

Delightful, smart, wonderful squishy people!

The point would be that that would be the PIN that you wrote on the card. The 'self-destruct' one. Not one you have to remember and use yourself.

My dead mother shows up and is already sick. I wake up freaked out but also relieved that that's all over. This last one, she was going to be getting a lung transplant and I was the only one who understood how risky that was.

I think you're merging "Mad Men" and "Gattaca" there.
