dEnnis the Menace

Grown adults acting like children, then patronizing me after I treat them like the children that they are acting as. Had the QA manager ask me to take pictures of two products before they left the building, and he told me that he's asking me because nobody else knows how to use the company's digital camera. To that I thought, this is a medium sized business, with mostly engineers working here. You are a quality manager that has been in the business for a while. You don't know how to use a digital camera, and you can't ask for help? Instead he asks me to do it for him (this is a common occurrence, and before, he told me he didn't know how to upload the pics to his computer, to which I gave detailed instructions to do so). So while he's standing over my shoulder as I take these photographs, holding me up from my own work, he has the nerve to ask for step by step directions on how to use the camera. I got what I thought was the last laugh: I took pictures of the camera, and made a step by step instructions that a 1 yr old could follow. (i.e. (1) set camera bag on desk (2) carefully unsnap camera bag (3) carefully take camera out of bag (4) pinch the sides of lens cap and pull to remove, etc.). I had pictures, and arrows and thought the whole time, I was being a dick. Well he emailed me this morning with an email that says "Great job on the instructions Dennis, this will be Very helpful" :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash: IT WAS AN INSULT TO YOUR INTELLIGENCE YOU ######!

Finally got my official time for the 5k I ran a few weeks back: 28:03, which is a pace of 9:03/mile. Not too bad for my first one ever. I already decided to register for another one on the 14th. My goal is just to improve on that, even if it's by 3 seconds.

My sister gets back on the field for the first time since tearing her MCL this Saturday in a match up of Daemen vs Elmira. She has been doing sprints and cutting, and planting, and finally did kicking drill last weekend. She started fully practicing this week. She'll be playing at a center-mid position. I'm excited for her.

I have to agree with this. I'd rather wait and see what the reports have to say, before making a decision. On another note, I hadn't seen it anywhere yet, but NPR did some fact checking (my cousin posted it on facebook). Pretty interesting. how so?

He does seem to learn quickly from his mistakes.

I believe Byrd had the same issue as a rookie: wanted every hit to be a hard hit. I think the kids going to be something great though once he learns a little more.

I felt, like Liger, that I agreed with some of what Romney said and some of what Obama said. the bullying by Romney (constantly interrupting the moderator and always having the last word) really turned me off to him though. It was rather annoying. I am still leaning towards Obama at the moment.

I'm sorry but you need to wait a day to complain...

oh boy...the lockout needs to end ASAP.

good song! love Toby Keith :thumbsup:

Men's warehouse is where I plan on going, two for one deal.

was it a bicep or a pectoral? I think it was poor execution of a poor plan for the defense, resulting in us getting shredded.

oh wow. best of luck with that! that's crazy/scary!

Apparently he was targeted 10 times, and only hauled in two. :doh: I would have to re watch (not happening) to see how much of that was on Fitz, but from what I remember, that'd be most of it. Also, ESPN reporting that the Bills have been outscored 100-56 in two (that's 2) AFC East games this year. Same old same old... :cry:

HAHA! yes indeed, but still...just makes me excited, and impatient to see him in a Sabres sweater.

I missed that one...explain?

touche sir. well played :beer:

11 points in 4 games? wow!

I had a few beefs with the game. (1) as everyone has said, punting when you're at the NE 41. You go for it there, especially when NE had no pass defense. (2) My only complaint about the refs: NE defensive lineman goes in low on Fitz (below knees) while he's already being hit by someone else. result, no penalty. Kyle Williams does something less potentially harmful to Tom Brady, and it was 15 yards. That was my only complaint of the game against the regular refs. I thought they called everything else really well (except for Chandler getting cocked in the face). (3) Will Steve Johnson and Mario Williams please report to 1 Bills Drive, you have too many absences. (4) I now owe my boss lunch. GAH! I hate losing.

My little sister is coming home for the weekend form college. We're gonna go to the apple orchard with our significant others, and probably catch a movie altogether. I'm pretty excited, as it's kind of boring without her around (she's the jokster of the family, and the one that makes EVERYONE laugh).

I hope not. I finally have a complaint for today: this afternoon has been dragging on so slowly. I had two meetings scheduled, but they've both been pushed until tomorrow (I hate Friday meetings), and means that now I have to do the work I had planned for tomorrow, today...and I have zero motivation to do so. Talk about first world, working class problems :doh:

Have never not had free wireless. I've been to Seattle, LA, San Diego, Ft Lauderdale, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, Philly...the list goes on and on. Never paid for wireless.

Out of curiosity, which hotel? I've never seen that before, and I travel frequently for work. Then again I always stay at the same hotel chains (either Holiday Inn, or Marriott, whichever is more convenient)

Maybe they were motivated by the NFL and NFLRA coming to an agreement? ;)
