That was too bad, too. The Battlestar Galactica spaceships were AWESOME! I had a Viper and a Scarab with the original, shooting missiles, and a Cylon Raider with the captive missiles.

Ehhh.... There’s like three situations where your GPA matters... Your first job out of school (when you don’t have any real experience), jobs in academia, and high-profile jobs where people are going to be digging into your background (say, if you’re the President of the United States and people want to see if you’re…

I actually make myself look a little less qualified, to give other candidates a sporting chance. It’s intimidating enough that they’re competing with a sentient snowy owl/German shepherd hybrid; finding out I’m more experienced, smarter, more attractive and more qualified just makes it worse for them.

We found out Mrs Snowdog’s cancer came back a few months ago. Nobody tells you grieving can precede a loss.

Here’s a parenting hint for you... Take a look at the Scouts BSA Handbook for parenting tips and ideas. Lots of things like this, and if you take a look at some of the merit badges required for Eagle, you’ve got a pretty solid “Adulting 101" guidebook for your tween/teen...

They found Amazon Women. They’re waiting until Monday to see if Captain Nelson is available for the exploration mission...

Given Superman’s dating history, chances are that “Leslie Larr” will be romantic competition for Lois Lane.

Can I introduce you to Mrs Snow Dog? Back when she did the cooking, it was required that you taste everything she made for the meal, and forbidden to complain/comment on it.

It’s a microcosm of his whole view on Star Wars... He can’t/won’t leave it alone, to its detriment. I don’t think there’s been a single editorial change in any of the extended/expanded/special/director cuts that makes the original better.

Yep, there’s nothing wrong with it, and knowing your families food foibles is the best way to passive-aggressively express your displeasure with them.

I just call the Snow Pups “little assholes” when they’re difficult. Everyone understands it — other parents, single people, even grandparents.

I’m only antagonistic towards idiots, though it seems there are more and more of those around anymore.

Ugh. That’s gonna be a nope from me, dawg. Ready Player One was hot garbage, I can do without more of it...

My name isn’t on that list, unless they want to put my name on the building after they lose the breach of contract lawsuit.

“I had a client recently whose California-based employee decided that while she’s been mandated to work from home for the next year, she may as well go live in Arizona where her boyfriend is. She can certainly do her job from Arizona, but what she or her manager didn’t realize when they agreed to this arrangement…

There’s a difference between picking up and moving permanently and just going somewhere else to work for a few weeks, or even a couple of months. You absolutely need to keep your employer appraised of your permanent mailing address, since that affects your tax withholding, but as long as you aren’t changing your…

Sure, if they have written criteria, that’s one thing. If there isn’t anything in writing, I don’t see where you owe your employer to notify them that you’re going to the lake house for a week, or moving from one town to another...

That question really needs to go to a tax professional... but I doubt it. There are plenty of people that lived in one state and worked in another before the coronapocalypese, and the tax code managed that with no problems. Ditto local/city taxes.

Counterpoint: If my company isn’t paying for my remote office, I don’t have any obligation to tell them where my remote office is located, period.
