The Bunchers hunted down and killed the last Familista years ago. There is no argument any more.

Make this work for you.

1. Once in a while, casually mention to your boss how tired you are of recruiters emailing/calling/texting you all the time.

2. Tell a coworker your going to be a little late coming back from lunch with your buddy from $Your_biggest_competitor.

3. Tell your boss you have an "appointment" tomorrow, and you need to take an hour off. Show up the next day wearing your best suit and tie.

How are the kitchen-built walls different from the garage built walls?

The Skytrain LRT system in Vancouver has been driverless since it was first built back in 86. This is most definitely a train being run by a computer, and it has an excellenmt safety record.

You have picked a good one. The Stars My Destination is quite possibly one of the best Scifi novels ever written.

I just read Dinosaur. I can't for the life of me see how it could be science fiction, (or fantasy for that matter.) It's an ok story, if you like that sort of thing, but science fiction? I don't think so.

We forgive you. Acknowledging the problem is the first step to curing it.

I had to look it up. Browning used to make pistols in America and in Europe (FN manufactured them). The FN Model 1910 was quite popular in Europe at the time.

When I hear the word "Culture"..... that's when I reach for my revolver. Original quote "Wenn ich Kultur höre ... entsichere ich meinen Browning!"
 
Obligatory Godwin, but sometimes they got it right.

I have an old Salton spring scale, and i just put a big plastic bowl on top, zero the scale, and off I go. It reads up to 10 kg. There are any number of fancy electronic kitchen scales that will do the same thing. I do some German cooking,and a lot of the old recipes are by weight

"Every other animal" - I don't think so. If you dump a 20 lb bag of dog food on the floor and leave for a week, your dog will eat till it cant move 3 days in a row and then starve for 4 days.

Your previous method - chop a pile of onions - throw them in the pot - go to the next ingredient. New method - chop a pile of onions - weigh them - throw them in the pot - go to the next ingredient.
 
Is it really that much more difficult?
 
Chopping a pile of onions takes 5 or 10 minutes; weighing them takes 15 seconds.
 
The meat you throw in probably has the weight on the package.
 
If you _don't_want_to_ figure out how many calories you are taking in, and just eat as much as you want, then go right ahead. Just don't pretend that it can't be done.

That's how I got off the ciggies. Got the idea from a "how to quit" book.First I switched to a brand that was about 10% lower nicotine than my regular smokes. Just made sure not to smoke any more for a few weeks. Then I started to figure out when I would smoke and cut out habitual smokes that were close (in time) to other habitual smokes. One before I got on the bus and one after became half a cig before and half a cig after. Then after a few weeks of that I switched brands again another 10% lower nicotine. Ran the cycle about 3 or 4 times. I started out at half a deck of Players Light a day and finished at 4 Matinee Slims (yeah I know) a day at which point I said Screw It and just quit.
