Look how few homeless.

Someone posted the other day airlines have a William Shatner seat. One an employee can sit at and see the whole wing while in fight and they call it the Shatner seat lol. No idea if true but sounds reasonable...

I haven't really followed it, but kind of thought one day someone would sue for something. Of course it wouldn't do any good if they could find a lawyer that would sign on but that much money sometimes people get sue happy.

Never heard of the judge but some of the things on the internet talk about him like he was Judge Whopner or something lol. I guess he was super popular somewhere or some media I didn't use.

The thing with Dot Com sometimes I wonder about people who were registering a .com for anything and everything in an effort to try and sell them to a business at some point. I know some made out well but seemed like all the time someone was " I bought a ton of .com names and will make my money...

Nobody (well most people) don't put down a bad reference. It's super common to call the places they have listed as their past employment and ask someone about them. Non corporate, and the person you call and ask about them is normally the owner. I hear all kind of stuff from "wich he still...

That was my first thought. That's back when I watched some TV and seemed like every other commercial was DOT COM even on stuff you would never order. I could never figure out how they hoped to monetize some of it, guess they couldn't.

Society of American Foresters had a very large conference table that was around 5" thick made out of Sugar Pine that took up the majority of the room. One day years after it was made and installed in the middle of a conference everyone was sitting around and a wood borer came out the top...

I know I know I know. The US governemnt will buy 10% of Intel, at least that's what Trump floated. As an investment, no thanks.

Not a commodity trader, but read a while back the exchange upped what you needed to trade futures on margin for platinum when it was up 40% for the year. I could see some getting really underwater fast after a long string of gains then when a margin call came oops.

Had a flight from Chicago to Anchorage before entertainment systems in a plane would show where you are. I asked the stewardess if she could tell me where we were with the ice fields and mountains below. She asked the pilot who announced it over the PA. When we deplaned she introduced me to the...

Till the day she died my grandmother would often say she wish CD's would go back around 20%. Of courwse when you grow most of your food and work at home in a house you owned for 25 years by then. She did not keep buying and holding CD's for long, but for a short while she loved them. I...

I was not a big investor. It was like you would think it was. Had to have an account and had to call and pay someone to do anything and everything. Then at some later time you would get a call (maybe) that your order went through and for how much, or wait for a snail mail. Everything had a fee...

It's not uncommon in my line of work for someone to pick up a little work from time to time while retired. It's a lot different than going to work for someone every day. My dad is 83 and still picks up a small job from time to time. Might work a week a year in total across multiple jobs. Kept...

Someone should make a site or app that tracks how accurate the weather forecast turns out to be. I looked the other day and for the next 3 weeks the future cast which is never right showed 90s every day which seemed about right for this time of year. Then one day it had 105 out of the blue and...

I'll look through the bag mod posted. I tried a few and the ones I got earlier were just bags of crap you get for new players. It's not a weigh issue. I carry all stuff I might actually use all the time on my two players. Anything that gets sent to camp is just for sale later. Some places you...

I need an inventory management mod. Playing with only two players most of your stuff doesn't go onto someone else. I looked at mods and most of the inventory stuff was like more bags or bags that came with stuff in them. Be nice if you could just rename bags but you can't.

Another Python down. Only 1.25 trillion this time, minus the officer mods this time. https://zkillboard.com/kill/129129383/

My last girlfriend was an OR nurse. She had very little patient interaction being head of some "team" they call it. She did actual OR stuff, not out patient stuff. She was normal to me. She did talk about other nurses getting fat eating all the stuff and looking for a doctor to marry. My GF...

My whole adult life was like semi retirement in some ways and in others I was planning for it. I can walk outisde and be on the natiional forest in minutes after I cross my property line. I live minutes away from the largest lake in TX and have always fished a lot. I have a shooting range on the...

Headed to the ER again shorly, waiting on my ride.

Of course the price will drop , bought a pre built with a 5070ti in it which was a large part of the cost. It really doesn't matter I needed a card and I'll probably stick with it for a while. The games I play don't need that much already. Some game that I want to play and requires more will...

Never was a console player. I eventually got rid of all my old PC games that were DOS based. You could make them run but I had already done them at least once, somer more.

I have a "formal" dining room in my house. It has a dining table and has a door to separate it from the hall just down from the kitchen (so the servants can make a short trip lol). I use it as an actual dining room. I don't eat in the living room or while sitting at the computer or whatever. Of...

I would be okay. I played EQ a lot back in the day and a few times later on. I logged in a year or two ago and with the changes and new stuff I really didn't even know where to start and did not feel like starting a new character. I have not kept up with the game and especially on who owns it...

Mentioned it before but a friend of mine right out of college got married and bought a house in Katy, TX where it was really booming 30 years ago. Building houses in what had beeb a prairie and mostly good hunting. Anyway the house was so close to the neighbor when it rained hard (and it rains...

I haven't played in a while but this is making the rounds. People guessing RMT or not. No idea. Not every day you get a 1.5 trillion isk killmail off one ship. If you got the kill on that your killboard would be green for a very long time I'm guessing. Guessing nobody knows how much a hull would...

I looked after someone mentioned a package with DLC or expansion. I did not realise how many the game has had over the years.

I would definitely put some kind of happiness high on the scale of not being a failure. I know some pretty downright miserable people that are succesful but can't go 30 seconds into a conversation without talking about how much their life sucks but the business is doing good and they "own" a lot...

https://www.express.co.uk/celebrity-news/2089668/flaco-jimenez-dead-6-time-grammy-award Him on the accordion. Solo parts around 1:00 and 3:40. Great song by the way. He was with the Texas Tornados at one time.

Normally high ar around 95-99 here where I live in east, TX. Same for where my parents live in Mississippi. Two years ago there they had a week of 105. Here I had around 103-104 for a week or more about 30 years ago. It comes and goes. Hell I was working for the US Forest Service all day every...

Speaking of the eye laser surgery. I've never had it but I talked to someone that had it before. I don't know if it changed after ACA insurance and stuff but it was mega expensive unless your insurance covered it and not all did. Apparently the machines/lasers they use they rent or lease and the...

Been wondering if Mt. Rainier is going to be the next Mt. St. Helens since apparently a lot of earthquakes in the area lately.

When I was in AK the only thing I did in Anchorage was look at some of the 1964 earthquake damage. They had a lot of signs and displays of stuff that happened due to the quake all over the world. It was a 9.2 or so. Some barges were knocked loose of the dock at Dow Chemical on the Mississippi...

Washington state had extermely low power cost, at least till they started trying to change the hydroelectric situation where they get most of their power from. I don't know if it's the same for industrial compared to residential but when I lived there my power bill was about what a meal cost...

Before Weird Al. https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/music/news/musical-satirist-and-mathematician-tom-lehrer-dies-97-3949701 It's not against any religion to want to dispose of the pigeon.

We used to call that "life". I read an article a couple of years ago about how much peanut allergies are a problem in England because they don't eat peanut butter and such and the amount they eat gets lower each year because of all the allergies.
