Does the job require that you have a car? Can you take the bus, ride a bike, have someone drop you off / pick you up until you save enough cash?

Reminds me of the film "52 Pick-Up".

Thanks for the clarification.

Co-worker mentioned yesterday that the Clunkers web site makes mention that the government is scanning the connection while on that site. I have not confirmed this, nor do I intend to.

I thought the architecture in / around Rock Ctr / Wall St. to be interesting. WTC site is right near Wall St. And there is a fire station just south of the WTC site that has an incredible piece of art on the side of the building.

Wifey and I along with my parents, who were original season ticket holders.

If I was to pick a place it would be Orlando. Sister lives in Jax and BIL has a second home in Orlando. I have visited both many times. Jax does little for me. Orlando is centrally located, great airport, major league team in the area, and seems to still be growing.

IIRC, the futher up you get on the floor the seat become more "restrictive" as that is where family / friends of the inductees sit. My opinion, the stadium seats are better for seeing the ceremony.

Godspeed Coach. Note to all - Coach Johnson was originally diagnosed with melanoma. This then spread to the spine in his lower back. PLEASE make sure you see a DR once a year.

If you are looking at a Murano or a Highlander, why not consider a VUE or Outlook?

Take care of yourself and enjoy the Sat.

Head shot too messy - crotch shot would have been better to keep him from multiplying.

I'll play the serious card. If you do get a couple of words with him tell him that we just want an honest effort from him.

Somewhat similar experience. Wifey is on my back about the cost of my dry cleaning. Says she found a shop that is half the price of my current place. Current place is a one off - not chain, owners know everyone by name, does a good job, opens on time, etc. So, to get the wifey off my back I try her place. Sign says they open at 7am. I'm there a few minutes early. 20 minutes later they're still not open - I leave to get to work. I try again the next day. Same deal - 15 minutes late - I leave. I tell this to my wife and she says that I should try again. I go in this place the next Sat and ask for the owner / manager. I tell him this story and he says that it will get corrected. I drive by this place every day the next week and it is never open on time. I go back to my current cleaner and relay the story. He says thank you for the business and matches the other stores price. I'll pay a bit more for the service thank you wifey.

Wouldn't it be cool if some network would replay the entire A-11 flight?!

Looking into comments about the article - sounds like the book's title is Moon Landing: Apollo 11 40th Anniversary Pop-Up. Authors are Richard Platt, David Hawcock.

Damn Nic, we need to have more off site meetings here in Italy.

Dinosaur B-B-Q sauce not bad. It has an interesting flavor. I mix a bit of it with Ancor Bar wing sauce just before taking chicken off the grill. I got it at Wegman's on my last visit home.

Take your cell phone down to the absolute minimum. No texting, internet. If you don't have a car - don't get one. If you have one - get rid of it and get a bike / walk. Limit your partying to 1 to 2 nights / week. Don't go on spring break.

John - I'm somewhat of the poster child for Dean's last comment. I graduated out of HS in the top 15% of my class of ~400. Thought I knew stuff. Applied to RIT, Syracuse, Pitt, and Cincy for engineering. Accepted to RIT. Boy, did reality hit - hard. I couldn't study my way out of a paper bag with both ends open. Darn near flunked out. Made a deal with school if I went JUCO route (ECC) they would let me back in - on probation. Learned how to study and darn near aced ECC while working and being an unpaid asst coach for 2 sports at old HS. Went back to RIT and struggled again. Realized that I did not have the aptitude for theory - practical was my game. Finished with Mech Eng Tech degree. Signed on at TI making more than my old man. 20+ yrs, 2 layoffs, 4 employers , and 2 moves later I am in a good place. Point here is just because this particular door closes not all are. Many are still open. Look at the options at D2 or D3. I hear / talk to more people that played sports at that level and are still tight with their teammates than at the D1 level and are very successful at what they do. I appreciate your disappointment, but don't be. Encourage him, kick him in the butt when he needs it. In the end, it is your son that will set the direction for his life. You and your wife can only set the foundation.

The banner on the top or bottom of the screen that shows the score. Can that be reduced in size somehow? I don't need to see it 90ft away.

For small repair / fill jobs, I use a slightly damp (almost dry) sponge when the mud is still a bit "grey". Light pressure and no sanding / dust. Tough to do though with corners, small space, that kind of stuff.
