Is there any reason why this needs to be a taxpayer subsidized organization?

I realize it’s not quite the same thing, but there are already corporations who pay private meteorologists for their services.

World or not be better to allow corporate America to pay for these types of services and free up those dollars for other things?

Well that’s the end of me ever doing anything productive for the rest of my life.

This was a great read. Thank you!

Me…

Two email threads on the same subject with the same subject line, slightly different recipient lists.

It was a really deep thread and at one point I had emailed the internal version with “the customer is not good at math.” And included the correct math.

Some time later we had resolved the issue and I replied to the customer, but somehow ended up on the wrong thread. Fortunately it was so deep that I don’t think they ever saw it. But one of our VPs did. We had an entertaining conversation.

To this day I hate threads that go on for ages and I hate it when people reuse threads.

I’m impressed you were able to convert the Oreos! 😉

6’6" (247.5 Oreo Cookies for those of you who use that measurement). My wife is 5’1" tall.

When I was growing up my mom would always say “the tall girls are going to love you!” Every tall girl I ever asked out shot me down in flames.

I’m a fan of capitalism, but not the kind of capitalism that decrees something is too big to fail and must be bailed out.

Yes, but what gorgeous country to get fucked in! When my wife PCSd from Long Island to Fort Knox, we drove through that country several times.

She would also spend a lot of time at Fort Lee (now Gregg-Adams) and the drive from Fort Knox to Fort Lee also crossed amazing parts of WV.

My father was an itinerant minister. He traveled all over the country. We made great use of TripTik (I think that’s what it was called).

Hey! Thanks so much for the helpful response. I really appreciate it!

I get a big red banner saying sorry, according to your usage patterns you are not in the same family.

I have three sons, they live in the West Coast, I live in the Midwest. I can’t join a family with them. That’s a bummer.

My absolute favorite AC game. My wife just got me Sideshow’s Edward Animus statue for my birthday. It’s stunning.

I’m a sixty year old nerd. No one hires those.

However, thank you very much for the kindness of your post.

Today was one of those days for me.

Your worth, your value is not determined by what someone else makes.

Also, I’m a bit ignorant of this subject so forgive me if I get it wrong, but did he not go to school significantly longer for his MD than you did for yours?

I believe he also had to go through the hell that is residency, I didn’t believe nurses do.

If you’re envious of his salary, improve your skills, or your education. If you’re happy where you are at In life, then don’t let the fact that others make more than you interfere with that happiness.

No matter what you do, there will always be others who make more, one of those sad facts of life.

Boy THAT will work! Good idea government!

I hate to think about what your familial experiences must have been like to believe that couples can’t love each other, have kids they love and who love them, and genuinely enjoy being around each other.

I’ve even helped by putting my nose in the air and saying, “that’s ok, I’ll put it away for you”

Loved it. TMI. It came out when my first wife and I had split after 20 years of marriage. I was living in a dive apartment. Alone for the first time in my life.
