Does anyone else feel that this would be creepy if it was done to you?

“The American Life” did a great episode on what car dealerships go through every month: http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives…

The clay type kitty litter really doesn’t work. Just get the play sand from the home improvement store.

Do they have recent movies like AT&T Uverse or Red Box? No? Then I’m not buying.

I learned a trick in Boy Scouts to warm up sleeping bags quick. Just jog in place for a bit (15-30 seconds should do it), to get your heart pumping and raise your body temp a bit. Then get under the covers and your body heat will quickly warm the surrounding sheets.

How do you know it’s a power only cord? I recently came across one of those, and it was literally the first one I ever encountered that DIDN’T transfer data. I had to actually write it on the connector in black marker so I would remember.

Not in Texas. We have ton’s of land here so every apartment has enough room for at least one car, usually 2.

You adapt and decide on your living arrangements based upon what’s possible.

That’s what she said....

I thought they DID use lasers, but with a interference grating that broke up the laser beam into the little dots.

I had thought of buying one of these, but creating a stencil so that it only illuminated the eaves and around the windows. Instant Christmas lights without having to use ladders!

The self-sealing design is nice. But the absence of a lip on the edge makes it tough to drink really hot coffee, since you can’t ‘slurp’ it to cool it down. When I use this, I usually have to ad a few ice cubes before I close it up, just to get it to a temperature that won’t burn my tongue.

If you have a ceiling fan, flick the switch on the fan so that it pushes air UP (And turn down the speed to low). This will push hot air near the ceiling, down the walls and help keep the room warmer (while avoiding a breeze that could make you feel cooler).

drat, you beat me to it

My son had a terrible time learning to take his ADHD medication, especially capsules. We probably didn’t help with his nervousness either, because those pills were expensive and you can only try swallowing the same capsule so often before it turns to mush.

Thanks for you reasoned response. I agree on the “Grow self and company” part, just not the method. I have adapted and grown with my company over the 25 years I’ve worked here, but none of it was part of a pre-defined plan. I’d come to work, be told we were converting to a new computer system, new software, new org…

they can, and should, have some kind of trajectory in mind.

In my house, there is actually very little standing at the stove at Thanksgiving. Most of it is done in the microwave (stuffing and instant mashed potatoes and steamed green beans), and the oven for the turkey and crescent rolls.
