    This is what I keep saying about what makes good and bad television cliffhangers. You can always tell a bad TV cliffhanger because they almost always drop the curtain before the end of the final act, leaving the audience with no resolution.

    Mabye somebody can help me out with a similar issue I’m having on my work Windows computers.

    I once had a coyote cross the street not fifteen feet from my wife and I as we were walking back home one night. Had we had our nine-pound dog with us, it could have gotten her before we even realized it was there.

    What is “doable” is different for everybody. I’m looking at housing costs here going crazy at the price of houses. Meanwhile, what the county considers to be “affordable” housing is 30% of gross income, which is about twice what we’re paying now.

    If only there were a way to bring multiple services together into one service. Let’s call it a “bundle.” That way, by getting more people to subscribe to every service, everybody can pay a smaller per-service fee and get access to a lot of services for the same price as if they subscribed to just a few individually.

    Isn’t the more obvious interpretation that she wants to trade places with her mirror self?

    If I recall, T-Mobile just gives you free MLB.tv, so you can’t get your local teams there either, right?

    The best security screening experience I’ve had was in Kansas City (*the last time I was there was almost ten years ago so things may have changed). What they did really well was that the gates were all in a ring with the amenities inside the ring and - here’s the key - you don’t go through security until you were

    Also.. who the hell would have a baby in that environment?!

    Garage sales are really good too, but you have to be aggressive and proactive. When my father passed, my mother had guys practically coming to blows with each other trying to buy his tools as soon she opened her yard sale.

    When my father-in-law was helping us do some repairs to sell our house, he went out and bought a Dremel just to expand a hole in our storm door frame, which couldn’t latch because of settling. He ended up using it on, like, eight other projects in the week they were there. It was incredible.

    Read the indictment. They talk about this explicitly:

    Before anybody complains about these charges or tries to compare them to another industry, I highly suggest they read (or at least skim) the indictment itself. Schooley and Henry personally designed the slide allegedly without consulting any engineers. They rushed the design, rushed the construction, and did it all

    Except it was the netting (or the metal netting supports) that killed him, so...

    I think it’s worth pointing out that this is doubly rare given that Memphis is now a conference foe for Wichita State.

    PSLF forgiveness is tax-free. It and a program for teachers are the only ones that offer tax-free forgiveness.

    This is especially true of PSLF because there are a billion different repayment plans and only certain ones qualify. I haven’t been eligible for the last seven years (even though I’ve worked public service that whole time) because my combined household income is too much to qualify for IBR.

    That is...exactly the reaction I would expect from a “Chicago-area brewery” to UIC making the Sweet Sixteen, which is to say that it is the same reaction I would see from a “Chicago-area brewery” when Northwestern wins a bowl game.

    This article kind of glosses over the main point of “good” or “bad” debt: Will this short-term debt increase your long-term wealth?

    Yeah, if you’re good about avoiding contamination like that it wouldn’t be an issue. I’m not always very good at that, so I tend to avoid things that can become contaminated and can’t be easily cleaned.
