  1. He's busy burning evidence of the latest Patriots Scandal
  2. Thinking 6 to 8. When do you need to know?
  3. Well yes and no. When the pats lost their first because of spy gate they still picked 7th I think and picked Mayo. With the raiders first rounder
  4. Technically they can't lose the 19th pick because it the Bills pick. They would lose the 12
  5. I remember I teared up when I got the text. Was surprised at how sad I felt having only met the man once for 15 seconds. At the memorial service Mrs.Wilson shook my brothers hand with tears in her eyes and said "Thank you so much for coming". One of those moments that will always stick with me Thanks You Ralph. My avatar has been you for this entire year as a thank you. RIP
  6. I was in a hotel recently that a Book of Mormon but no bible
  7. So my friend from the second company called me today and asked if he could give his pitch. So we talked for like an hour and this other job sounds much more like me. Less technical, more outreach and talking to people, managing projects and also comes with a fairly significant raise. From what he told me it sounds like it's my job if I want it. So now I have a legitimate problem. I do like the people I work with. They seem to like having me around and definitely need my help. The job itself? Meh. It's ok, I don't love it, don't hate it. I'm not one to quit on anything but if the offer is fairly significantly more..... It's hard to pass that up Anyone been in this scenario? How would you handle it?
  8. Yeah it's tough. Between the two of us we have roughly 70 k in debt and she is starting a small business right now so not really making anything. As a practical matter, I don't make enough to support both of us in an apartment with that kind if debt. Marriage doesn't work when you have to live in seperate houses with your parents
  9. We have to pay off loans before we pay for a big ass party The two people I interviewed with at the NP had 30 and 37 years experience respectively. I think they would get what I was doing I do think this other job, assuming it is the one listed on the website now, is more in line with what I'd like to be doing. Also likey comes with a raise With regards to my current job, basically what I do is indentify ways to save money and energy by selling new efficient stuff. Important? Sure it is? My field? Yeah sorta. The issue I have where I am now is I could see myself burning out. I fully expect to do grunt work, I'm the lowest guy on the ladder, but I see people that have been there a while just drained, talking about how migraines are a normal thing at this job. I'm not one to quit anything, so if there is nothing out there, I'm staying put and I'll kick ass at this job. But I think I owe to myself to hear their pitch
  10. Happiest mug shot ever
  11. Ha sorry guys. Haven't been fired yet but they are working me hard. No time to get on the board at this job. Work is fast paced, I'm learning a lot but the work isn't exactly the most stimulating. Something interesting happened today however. In the midst of having 8 projects dropped on my desk on day 6 of my new job, I got an email from another local company that does something similar wanting to meet me for lunch either this week or next week. I know one of the project managers there from school and he recommended me. I actually didn't notice the email until a few mins ago because I am convinced my employer checks our online activity and I don't check my personal at work because I am still pursuing that other job for next year and having a regular correspondence with the NP people. Anyone been in this position? How do I hear what they have to say without getting fired? No updates to life plans. Wearing big boy pants and started last week. She's still on board. We are no rush for the wedding tho. Still have a lot we want to do before then. Her mom asks her once a month if I'm going to propose soon haha
  12. Yeah Josh McCown should bring in some viewers
  13. Because Vick is awful? In HS we won a game 35 to 7 without attempting a single pass
  14. Im not sure trading for a busted wheels, inaccurate, can't read a defense QB is better than keeping our own inaccurate QB and a draft pick Bob Griffen has been awful since he came back injury. AWFUL.
  15. Sierra Nevada is a good brewery. I wrote a paper about their operation and sustainability stuff. Really interesting. Applied to work at their new plant in NC but I didn't get the job I like Southern Tier Helles. Really delicious. The head brewmaster is a friend of mine and he's so good at combining flavors and hops.
  16. Does anyone know if these two work together? My brother is without cable and hoping to watch some of these games this afternoon. Does he need to go to the bar or will this work? Thanks
  17. Cool. I've seen him interacting with fans at TC. He seems like a nice guy, loves his job
  18. @JasonLaCanfora: Hearing Jon Bon Jovi will be introduced as Bills owner tomorrow. Trump to be Vice Owner until next presidential bid
  19. Its a niche market. I know people that would do this but admittedly I hang out with nature nerds from time to time and some of them would probably jump on it. Me personally, I wouldn't be one of the first to buy it, I may eventually if enough people persuaded me however. The sustainability stuff is cool and something I'm always interested in. But its a tough market to be in. Its growing but like others have said, you are selling to to trader joes and thats it
  20. This offseason reminds me off last off season for the Bills. We signed Graham, Rivers and Spikes. All solid pro bowl talent players to boost our defense. The D was good in 2013, but lacked depth. Those signings made a big difference This year we focused on improving an anemic offense. Adding Cassel, Clay, Harvin, McCoy and Felton Pro Bowl Talent and solid players. We now have depth on the offense. I expect a big leap for the Bills
