I've played around with the Facebook Messenger app for making calls, it works pretty good. Can you tell that you are calling over the internet... yes. Is it bad enough that my wife will stop calling me... I certainly hope so. All kidding aside, it seems to work pretty good and is how I plan...

A coworker of mine was trying to become a firefighter. Trying to get on as a full time paid firefighter is very competitive I guess (at least in my area). They have to go through all kinds of testing and stuff and finish in the very top percentage just to get the interviews usually. One...

My bill online breaks out my minutes and shows how many VZW-to-VZW minutes were used even though they are unlimited. I too am a little hesitant, but for me I am rarely away from Wi-Fi so I should be able to make it work. I even have Wi-Fi access at most of my favorite restaurants. Little...

I remember reading Trent saying something along the lines of "I'm sick of doing the greatest hits bullshit" in regards to this tour. They could end up playing mostly new material.

If I fire someone who "isn't a good fit" I will get dinged for their unemployment should they claim it. If I fire someone for a "lack of availability" I stand a chance of not having to pay that unemployment. And at least in my state, having to pay unemployment means more expenses than just...

Finally dumping Verizon and am going to give this plan a try. I figure between Google Voice and Facebook Messenger/Google Hangouts I can easily keep from going over the minutes. I was generally sitting around 150 minutes used per month on Verizon but that was without caring at all how many I...

Can't wait to see the lines at the first couple games with all the girls trying to get in with their purses. Car prowlers are going to be like "lolololllololol"

Not like Gronk is going to make it out of the training room and into the locker room anyways.

Because it didn't happen that way in the books. Duh.

My grandfathered unlimited data plan through Verizon has unlimited text. I do have voice limits though.

I am not sure why exactly, but it isn't available for certain areas as of yet. I know I can't get a number ported or a new number for my area code currently with Google Voice. It's not a state thing because I can get a number with a Seattle area code... For some of us, getting a new number...

I also use Endomondo. On top of the GPS timing/tracking, you can manually enter in workouts such as weight training.

This works well. Might have to get a new phone number through Google Voice as they won't port over numbers from certain area codes.

Exactly. Not every model of T-Mobile phones have the built in WiFi calling and unfortunately the Nexus 4 is one of those phones that doesn't have that feature (even if you get it through T-Mobile).

You really do have to ride some bikes to get a feel, but I am 5'12" (Just shy enough of 6' to where I won't call myself that tall) and I ride either 58 or even 60 on some road bikes depending on brand. I feel more comfortable on a bigger frame though. I also ride a 'Large' for my mountain bike...

The field I worked at they had to be 14 I believe for insurance reasons, although it has been 10+ years since I did that so my memory is a little hazy. I do remember having to turn kids away since they weren't old enough, talk about some sad kiddos. Doesn't stop you from letting them shoot...

Not sure, my brand was recognizable (because we have been in town for so long) but the fact we delivered was not, even though my place started delivering before Pizza Hut, Dominos or anyone else in town at the time. I still get "I didn't know you guys delivered!" all the time. Probably because...

I know in the pizza business, car toppers have been shown to increase delivery business by as much as 30% (I've personally seen those results). Only thing on my car toppers is my logo. No number, no website, people don't really have the time/ability to write those things down anyways. Thing...

Think he is reverse nostradouching?

I played a bunch in the late 90's/ early 2000's. I even worked at a field over a summer one year. I probably started and quit a couple of times. It would start with playing some woods-ball every weekend, realizing I was too good for that, moving up to speedball, playing in a local tourney...

No, the audio books are awesome.

Wow, Fedor is on a roll today

This isn't new, when it comes to following along with a book/TV show/movie Astro seems to have the attention span of an A.D.D kitten who just had its first taste of catnip.

Finally got around to seeing this tonight. I've got mixed feelings on it overall. It hit all the nostalgia buttons for me for sure. I thought the effects and the acting was all well done overall. I thought Cumberbatch did a pretty decent job at re-imagining Khan. I personally feel that...

I don't understand the urge at all. The more clueless the spoiler-free crowd is, the more epic the reaction will be. Not hard to just stfu and get the popcorn ready.

For me, flexible schedule is a fringe benefit I consider more important than salary. Big reason I became my own boss. Whether it is hitting up the mountain on an epic powder day or taking advantage of a mid-week deal to Vegas, being able to leave the job for a couple of days on a whim is...

Thankfully Android is getting better about getting some of the newer features out without going through entire OS updates. Many of their newer features (such as Google Now) are being released across multiple versions and are attainable w/o having to wait for the carriers/manufacturers to push...

If all 9 of those people actually redeem their offers, $3 per redemption actually isn't that bad... at least in my experience it isn't. Although in my experience not all claimed offers are redeemed... so we'll see.

Having to take a customer to court is always a dubious situation. You just know the customer is going to bad-mouth you to anyone and everyone who will listen and you get no chance to tell your side of the story. But eventually you have to weigh the potential losses and protect your interests...

You should set aside a budget for sure. I am not sure on the appropriate numbers for a retail location such as yourself. I know I spend about 4% of net sales on ad-fund plus my discount (which I consider a part of advertising) which runs around 8% (which is average for an ad budget and low for...

I have ran Facebook Offers, although I have not paid for further reach. Only going to my fans (and whoever they shared it with) and the redemptions were meh. But since it was free for me no skin off my back, plus I got a few new likes out of it. I would not recommend this either. Yelp keeps a...

None of us are psychic so why even bother discussing which teams will be better than which next season, right?

Niners beat 3 of those 4 teams in their houses last season. Actually, all 4 if you want to count the pre-season...

For those interested in swapping beers, legal info re shipping alcohol:

You mean like GB did? The read/option was only ran 6% of the Niners offensive snaps after Kaep took over (with the RB getting the handoff the majority of the time). Some DC finds a creative way to shut down the read/option... I think the Niners will be fine.

They ran the read/option 11 times against Atlanta. Number of times Kaep kept it and ran, 0. He is only running the ball when it is wide open and there isn't much of a chance for him to take a hit. When Kaepernick runs the ball he simply is not taking the hits like other running QB's do... I...

Bridge on I-5 collapsed. Several cars ended up in the water. Rumor is an oversized load clipped the bridge. I was on that bridge about 1.5 hour prior to it happening.

Oh no doubt. I think the implication was that Jay-Z was going to be his agent and I was just pointing out that wasn't the case.

Jay-Z is just a face, there is a legitimate sports agency behind him.
