Yep, your views on it are pretty consistent. :)

I was in London and one of the locals and I were talking about beer; the feeling was companies send the "bad" stuff overseas since they can sell it as "imported". I rarely saw Bass (beer) in England, but at the time it was a staple of import beer in the US. Going the other way, Budweiser and Rolling Rock (of all things) were pretty prevalent American beer over there; which completely explains why foreigners have such a bad opinion of our beer.

I do fine it interesting that a lot of people that want no part of the government regulating business are perfectly fine with the government snooping into their lives and personal space. (I'm not referring to anyone in particular here, just interesting how we all compartmentalize things that seem at odds with each other)

That's what I was thinking. Maybe the Republicans would be better out laying plans and ideas rather than being focussed on making someone regret "her entitlement" (assume that slang for "having slightly different ideas on how to run the country").

I have no idea where the nickname came from, I've just seen it used here. BTW, HCHDDB is "Head Coach Hot Disco Dan Bylsma", the concatenation of all the nicknames I've seen here.

Hot Daniel (Bylsma), I believe.

I'm guessing Terry told GMTM and HCHDDB that he wants Kane on Eichel's wing. :ph34r:

Maybe not that exact quote, but diabeetus for sure.

They're sold in FL for when the temperature gets below 70.

I feel like I "newer" member despite registering in 2007. Even then, there was a lore, mystery, and legend surrounding this place.

Just the three, promise. Hedy is a mom to the other two. We started only looking for two kittens but fell in love with Hedy and adopted her too.

Episode II I only half watched and it was so terrible I turned it off (I never do that). I should give Episode III a shot, but none of the Star Wars stuff is on Netflix streaming or Prime Video so forget it. I might take a look to see how much it is to rent if I magically get some free time. :)

If you attach a picture to a post, it'll be thumbnail sized unless you click on it, if you link a picture from another site (imgur, smugmug, etc.), it'll be full size in the post.

Are you talking about the cat or is "Bubs" a nickname for d4rk?

I'm not entirely disagreeing with you, but very good defenses don't have bad days 50% of the time. The point someone made above about the offense giving the defense bad field position and little time off is very valid, however. Perhaps the defense will look a lot better if the offense becomes competent.

Interesting, I guess I've only run up against it in the context of maternity/paternity leave. That seems like a pretty questionable practice from the outside.

I can't watch the video, but from the preview image I assume that's a game-day shot? :)

I'm kind of with you. At home, I have a box of tools (I have a lock-open box cutter that I use a ton, FWIW), and otherwise don't need a knife all that often. I have a Leatherman in my backpack that's with me at work and most travel, but I can count on one hand how many times I've used it in the last year. I used to carry pocket knifes more often and all it did was substitute using a crappy screwdriver on the knife instead of going and getting a proper tool. :)

You got it all wrong, I'm the Ensign in the red shirt. But I gotta run, away mission; see you guys later!

I'm not sure what kind of FMLA you're talking about with the bad coworkers, but here if you take it, you're effectively not an employee in a lot of ways until you come back (no door access, computer accounts suspended, etc.). I'm almost certain they wouldn't let me use it as a part-time or ad hoc solution. It sounds like your company needs to set a few FMLA policies in place to stop the abuse. Having just done the baby thing, you described almost exactly what I did. After the first week, my body started to adjust to the sleep schedule and I worked a few hours a day from home. My vacation time is by hour, so any time I could put in was worth it. I didn't take any FMLA because I can't afford it (turns out kids are expensive) and from what I've heard from other coworkers, it takes days if not weeks to get all the access stuff sorted out.

I don't know if you read The Register (an IT news site), but they make fun of Yahoo! using titles like "Yahoo! Wants! to! merge! email! business! with! search!". That forum seems like an ideal place to do the same.

Except they refer to it as Le centre de l'univers du hockey

I think PA is a fan of the supposeitory (intentional typo, there). #heyooo

I remember hearing the same thing about people my age and Walkmans. It was BS then and it's BS now. And dare I say it, if I'm using the Sabres as an example the quality of information and debate I get on my electronic device is far better than any three dimensional conversations and exchanges of ideas I've had.
