If you dont' already have one, you should get one of those pedicure spa things. When I was waittressing, it was a godsend. I would come home at 3am and soak my feet for 30 minutes before falling asleep. Made walking the next day bearable. Sounds like you are enjoying your job. Working in a bar is always interesting!

I don't think I explained myself well here. My apologies. No worries, you expressed yourself quite nicely. The topic just gets under my skin. I don't think we are really disagreeing. When I give a gift because I want to, I'm not phased if I don't receive a thank you. But when I've been force

And a gift should NOT be given with the expectation of kudos or some sort of return on investment. I don't think that a "thank you" is a return on investment. However I do think that if someone takes the time to go out of their way to get your a gift or do you a favor, it's just plain rude not to ackn

I don't think it's a generational thing either--when I send something I appreciate some sort of acknowledgement (from the individual) that its arrived (that doesn't mean the returned check from the bank). Failure to acknowledge a gift is simply rude. Of course, I'm not picky, anything will do ("Got your package in the mail today, cheers!" works just fine for me).
I read you. Though I've been away from the computer for a little bit, so I haven't been reading as often.
Sal--Good article (as is anything that pulls Dylan out of cyberspace to comment) Hehehehehe, that was before Belle Sally's tenure, but boy were they hot! If it was before Sally's tenure, it had to be before your
Yea, but does Greenwich do DST? Well, since it's part of England and the Brits do, I would imagine that Greenwich does too.
Oops! Yep! Windows does not tell you the DST offset! Stupid Microsoft! Oh well, yes, we are -5 normally (or since DST is going to be 8 months of the year, is that normal?) -4 Now. Maybe thye can just make it year round so I dont have to try to make my watch move ahead an hour. If that's the case, then Sally can't be GMT, because we are fi
I think that the east coast is on GMT -5 (not GMT -4)-- at least that's what my computer is telling me.
They have authority to act. Given that (thanks for providing the information, Gid), I'd be suprised if Harvard doesn't boot her.
Did she publish the novel as part of her academic work at Harvard? If not, then the school doesn't have jurisdiction. I've read all about her plagiarism, and as a writer with a few publishing credits to my name, I hate it. I deplore it. She should be criminally prosecuted, definitely. If she had plagiarized something in a
I suppose it depends on Harvard's rules. Obviously if she plagarized for class work--she would fall under their policy (which you posted earlier, but I don't remember)--and if it was within their policy, they could see fit to expell her. However, since this wasn't for Harvard related activity, Harvard would have to have an existing policy for punishing students for "crimes" committed off campus/not in relation to the academics. The universit
That is all I am Saying. I wish him well in rehab as well. Frankly, I was unaware of a drug problem until he decided to go through it. But I dont think that is really on point here. The 2 medications he was taking are enough to cause the described behaviour. He's going into rehab for Ambien--which is
I'm not quite sure that one case has to do with another. My "dear friend", Patrick was not actually in the Capitol when he crashed his car, he did not disboey police orders, and he did not strike an officer. Police make judgements all the time. When I used to work nights at a bar, there'd be a rolling checkpoint on my way home (before I would hit the bridge into VA). The checkpoint was a response to drunk driving. The police were meant to check everyone, but after seeing my car so often, I w
Nice to see you around, Tex. I was starting to worry about you. Glad to hear that you and the baby are doing well. Karate sounds like fun, and the flexible schedule sounds brilliant! Good luck with that!
Not to rain on any parades, but you might want to check out this article. Does it really matter who many people died when you have pictures of the children above? I mean, even if only one child had to live horribly disfigured, isn't that enough to draw people to hold the politicians and leaders in char
Oh, and points suck. The man is an absolute genius! Listen to your wise older brother and do not succumb to the point-whoring ways. Points are like crack. Once they've got you hooked, there's no going back.
It actually looks like it might habe been shown: "This clip 'Twangers' from the classic kids tv show Rainbow shows Geoffrey, Bungle, Zippy and George using adult innuendo. Can you belive they showed this! " Regardless, it made me smile. Thanks, Sally.
I shoulda been a dj. Wouldn't that just be the best job? Ah man...you'd love to come to work every day. And you'd probably be encouraged to drink on the job. What could be better? I wonder if it's too late for a career change? <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 c
I love hearing about your little one--she sounds absolutely precious!
ades: I posted at the same time as you. My apologies. No worries--I'm glad to see you posting. You've been missed around here.
They tried internet Grocery shopping. It bombed. I'm not sure where you got the idea that it bombed. I think that it is quite successful in cities--I know loads of people who love the service and would not consider shopping any other way.
What about the families that lost people to the crash. Did anyone ask them if it was ok, or if they were prepared to relive the event over and over? Actually, the families were invovled in the making of the movie. So, yes, they were asked if it was ok, and they agreed to participate. According to a pi
so is a chav to England what a spide is to Northern Ireland?
Ha ha nothing. You seem to forget "before" you get that money, taxes MUST be paid on the sum. If you don't understand that just take a look at your paycheck. See where the government took "their" share? And that's before you file your taxes. There's no getting around that. Uncle Sam takes his bite off the top. <
