  1. Simplehuman trash can liners. About as boring as it gets.
  2. I have been very happy with the Klipsch Image x10. If they run another 50% sale, I recommend snatching them up.
  3. I didn't even get a chance to talk to him!
  4. hm, maybe it's the PC...
  5. Ugh, sorry to hear that, it sucks. I received many similar letters while in law school. Things will work out for you in the end. But in the meantime, here's a little humorous response to such letters that has been floating around the interwebs for some time: Herbert A. Millington Chair - Search Committee 412A Clarkson Hall, Whitson University College Hill, MA 34109 Dear Professor Millington, Thank you for your letter of March 16. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me an assistant professor position in your department. This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals. Despite Whitson's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore, I will assume the position of assistant professor in your department this August. I look forward to seeing you then. Best of luck in rejecting future applicants. Sincerely,
  6. Just wanted to take this opportunity to mention how much MobileMe continues to suck. It is basically unusuable for me on a PC with Firefox. Even when it does work, the UI is clumsy, the mail functionality is minimal, and the apps are useless. Apple really really screwed the pooch on this one. I know that has been confirmed already, but it seems to me that they continue to screw the pooch. The poor pooch.
  7. ^How did they taste?
  8. moar MRI. Should know more tomorrow.
  9. Cool!
  10. Watched the worst Oscars production I have ever seen.
  11. What's the youngest age that can appreciate/use it?
  12. How's the site doing with funds?
  13. Cool. How do they like it?
  14. Concealed Weapons Permit?
  15. heh, The Greenskeepers. A classic song.
  16. Got up. Had coffee & bagel. Sent Mrs Monkey and the little one to a birthday party. Threw in some laundry. Still have headache. MRI revealed some possible slight swelling of an area near pituitary. Sounds scary as all hell, but doctor (whom I trust despite his slight dickishness) is not worried at all even if it is the case. Says meds will take care of it quickly. Need another MRI, though, before diagnosis can be made. Talking to doctors makes me a better lawyer. Reminds me to take the time to explain shit to clients even when I think things are perfectly obvious and clear.
  17. I still don't get what the fuck this Bel Canto unit does that's so great (according to Bel Canto, at least).
  18. Didn't see it on the site, so I just emailed them.
  19. I'll just throw them in the freezer.
  20. Cool site, Mike. I need to find a place that will ship me some Pliny.
  21. Went to the doctor for the headache. He didn't seem too worried, but saw a "little swelling behind [my] eyes," (??) so he sent me for an MRI. His initial diagnosis is migraine, but I call back tomorrow morning. The MRI tech (forgive me if that is not what they are called) was very good and obviously had experienced his share of freak-outs. But I've had several MRIs, and with constant putting out fires at work and a 2 1/2 year old at home, 25 minutes in the MRI machine was kind of relaxing.
  22. As stated in title, if I can build an interconnect, can I make a power cable? Anything special I need to know so that I don't burst into flames?
  23. Where are you buying online? As for Russian Imperial Stouts, I liked the Brooklyn Black Ops I had the other day.
  24. Sorry, I wasn't clear. I think the ECD-1 could be the better match, but I'll need to do a head-to-head when I get the KGSS back. To me, the north star is a bit brighter than the ECD-1.
