...They're cutting, shaping, drilling, soldering, programming, talking, and generally having a great time...

no welding? i love welding. welding is awesome. the 'texas friendly' seems a little weird to me. i lived in texas for 5 years and never heard the term. (terrible comment? mod me down more? my karma can't get any worse.)

I really like Logitech keyboards. they are quiet. I have never had any issue with them. about 10 years ago, I had to move to a trackball. I have used all kinds and so far, the best one for me ergonomically is the trackman cordless. it will sometimes not work after booting up the computer first thing in the morning, but other than that, it is rock solid. I wish it wasn't cordless, but I take what I can get.

(with terrible karma, one can't even post AC!)

I would like to get struck by this lightening. I want to lose about 15 pounds.

I like this - add stuff to the pill so that i don't care that i am missing out. i love food. unfortunately, i had my gall bladder removed a few years ago. (no, i don't fit the stereotypical criteria - i am not over forty, fat, or female - just bad genes inherited from my mom.) i haven't grown out of one of the side effects yet. i have to run to the bathroom shortly after eating and sometimes during. maybe the food pill would help me.

I was watching a tv show on HDNet and Samsung builds ships! That is very impressive.

i totally agree with you on all counts. i do think her "smoking crack" is a bit unprofessional. did she really say that? i like it, but i am shocked at the inappropriateness. yes, yes, we are all adults. hahaha. :~)>

i'd sure like some links to your claims. i am not saying your are trying to mislead anyone, i would just like to have some further reading. i suppose it is off to google now to find it. thank you for the heads up!

because depression is easy to hide.

I agree! if you fix the acronym, how does it read? 140 million dollars United states dollars. redundant?

jmorris's reply was very descriptive, intelligent and made several good points. if i had mod points, i would have mod'd OP up.

i get the awful aching pain at the junction of my shoulder and neck. whew, it is almost too much to bear. i am glad i read your post. i was hoping i would find something in this particular article to help me. (i don't have mod-points for obvious reasons, but i thought a positive reply would be good, too.)

i totally agree. my LG Spectrum is a pretty awesome phone, but it seriously lacks cyanogenmod support.

this is really interesting study. it reminds me of an article from some time back about how the time to choose when presented with 3 options versus 2 was considerably disproportionate.

here is more off-topic and not aligned with groupthink comments---- i appreciate your +1. thank you. i really don't get why my karma is so bad.

I once had a manager (engineering manager - didn't even know what a dowel pin was...) that used comic sans for everything. It sure doesn't make it easy to take a person very seriously.
