You're cool. You and your finger that you've got sticking up in the air directed towards me. You're a terrible drive and I honked my horn at your because you almost took the front of my car off. Your response...show me your finger. That's really cool and adult of you to do that. I want to grow up to be just like you some day. I can go around and solve all my problems by showing people my finger too. Not only would I show folks my finger out my car window, but I'd do like you did and stop in a right-hand turn lane where a stop isn't required. I'd stop there at the next major intersection and wait for the person that honked at me to pull up to the light. Then I'd show them my finger a second time. A double dose of the finger. That's totally rad, dude. You must be cool now, showing everybody your finger. You could have used it for so many other productive things, like picking your nose or scratching an itch, but no, you chose to show it to me. How kind of you. Don't worry though, I'll miss you and your finger. Their memories will be with me forever. What a cute finger. You will never have the minute it took you to read this back. Deal with it :). emily_renee That's the second time I've heard this story. That's at least two minutes I won't EVER get back! Haha! :)  iamchriswindham sounds like you had a bad experience...  iamchriswindham I think I'm scheduled to work til 7pm. I bought tickets to see Twilight at 9:40pm in Cedar Park. Want to come? Did you go to see James Bond last weekend? I was pretty worn out. I had to work 9am-7:30pm Sat with no lunch break!  adampual lol...good way to deal with that situation.  adampual that video is just disgusting. it is pretty disappointing how much framing affects elections.  bah It's a good thing I wasn't driving you because I would have ran him down and then showed him 4 fingers and a thumb to the face! Some people...  windham4life wow....lol...some people are just dumb.  adampual great article. i don't see why the gov't doesn't realize the simple principle that a bailout just allows any industry to continue the practices that brought its demise. let the bankruptcy wipe out the foul execs and get someone in there that knows how to grow a company.  adamandjessesdad Good article by Romney. I remember the 80s when insurance became "health care" and everyone wanted their company to pay for every penny. I saw a comment today that U.S. automakers need to "quit refusing" to modernize their plants and that they should make more of an effort to "go green". GM updated everthing in the 80s, and invented computer control of the assembly line (and the MAP protocol that allowed the entire assembly line to be connected). They have continually updated since that time. Their real problem is that $1500 of every car goes to pay for health care, with $1000 of that going toward retirees. The 80s gave us a sort-of corporate socialism mentality that we haven't let go of. Of course, I read another article the other day that said Japan has never recovered from their economic crisis in the 90s, and that their government is still propping up an inefficient auto industry.  dianna haha...I didn't mind sparing that minute. :)  cmvermont um, and why does that agilent system cost $250,000 to lease for a year when you can purchase one for $17,850??  viarostultega The one you're buying doesn't have all the options and accessories and probes and such.  login to comment hide comments If this doesn't scream nerd, I don't know what does... 11-07-08 10:16pm CST My new favorite work toy: At more than a quarter of a million to lease for a year, this isn't exactly "my" toy, but since there were seven being unused in our lab, I thought I'd do my best to fiddle with what I could. The touchscreen feature is also a gimmick, at best. And we wonder why companies claim to be having financial problems. Perhaps obscure purchases and leases are one way they could improve their business practices, resulting in a better bottom-line. Nonetheless...it's come in handy. This past week's work schedule: Monday: 9:00am-9:30pm Tuesday: 7:30am-8:20pm Wednesday: 9:15am-8pm Thursday: 9:15am-2:30am Friday: 9:50am-6:40pm Whew! adamandjessesdad It looks like a PC with a non-traditional input device. Is there anything you can do with that wheel that you can't do with a keyboard? (And it ssems like just a wheel that plugs into a USB plus the software would be more economical.) Maybe they had to package it like that to make anyone think the software was worth the price.  adamandjessesdad That's a lot of hours!  iamchriswindham those are all terrible hours, but especially Thursday!  dts That's ridiculous - if you wanted hours like that you should have gone into public accounting...but our hours aren't even that bad right now...  tgatzajr Looks like a Fisher Price busy box. Does it do a quarter million dollars worth of work?  kalawi Wow...you've been having really really really long days! That's crazy. I hope it's better for you this week!  lois Proud of you for getting your picture taken today!  adampual no wonder they can't hire me. that is too much work, though.  dianna Way over my head!! You sure have been working a lot!! Time for a vacation. :)  lois What are friends for?  whymeohmy no worries, buddy. and btw, i am not jealous at all of your work schedule :(  windham4life You are such a nerd. lol...j/k  bah looks fun!  login to comment hide comments And I Found This Humorous: 11-01-08 11:42pm CST Follow Obama to la-la land After watching the Obama infomercial Wednesday evening, I had the urge to hook arms with Joe the Plumber and skip down a yellow brick road through a field of flowers chasing butterflies with visions of Santa’s gifts dancing in my head.
