I tend to cook thicker cuts with low heat and the lid on (to trap the heat) during the early phases and as it gets closer to done, increase the heat and remove the lid. The lower heat keeps the outside from burning and the trapped heat helps get the middle done sooner.

The same way a boat does on a lake.......

Missed item: You are at the top of your salary band and not in line for a promotion.

#8.....HEMI. Dude in a truck thinks he has a sports car. That's why they beat out other trucks.

As a consultant, I keep my client project separate using VMs.....new client project, new VM. It allows me to make sure that licenses and accounts aren't crossed and that no code from one client is used with another client (a concern of theirs). I'm thinking of extending this concept to my personal projects for the…

Oh, I agree — if you need the branded apps, WP isn't the one for you (yet). But most people don't need the branded apps as much as they need the feature that app represents. It's THOSE people that I want to convince to switch to WP. If more of those people are won over, then there will be a large enough market for…

I don't care.... :P blllllpppppttthhhhhhtttt.

Oooo. Platypi are awesome.....

I've got a WP7.5 device (HTC Arrive on Sprint — waiting for my WP8 devices) and have been very happy. I fully agree with the above.

It's not that they WON'T give it back....it's that they take their time to make you stay longer. Similar to the item in the article (source article) that talks about giving them your keys if you are trading in a vehicle. If they have something of yours, you are more at their mercy.

Bring copies of your relevant documents. Never give them your license (etc.). They'll hold them just to keep you there. If you bring them a copy, they have no reason to hold yours.

Key party? Swinger's club? The credit cards throw me, though.

I had just graduated from college and had my first real job with a decent salary.....and still lived like I was a broke college kid.....and not yet married.....and living in a party city.

No....my lower teeth go down (and maybe a tad forward)......doesn't create a smile look. I don't know of any word I say that causes the corners of my mouth to go up.

For a long time, I signed my posts......more from habit than for any other reason. I would sign then the same way I would sign an e-mail. I knew my nick and avatar was there, but my fingers were on auto-pilot. [enter][enter]Layne[alt-enter] was pretty much "send" in my mind.

Agree completely. I never figured out why the would bother putting unit prices if they aren't going to use the same units for all products in a group. Or just make it universal such as oz since those are printed on almost all containers.

If it happens a lot in practice, you would think that would be enough to alter your technique.......now that it's on film, even more reason.

A razor. No hair means it's just exposed skin. And you wash your skin with soap already....just use that.

Pre-paid credit cards. You can get some small dollar cards ($25, I think) and spend the money from the card, but I'd leave a little bit of money on it so that it stays valid. Then use it to register with.

I usually played Lawful Neutral......it's much easier to play a character when they'd make the same decisions you would. Rangers were always a favorite of mine.
