  • A friend of mine needs someone (soon) to create some "very clean" HTML markup based on Fireworks designs. He says it's probably a couple days worth of work and there is pay, but I'm not sure how much. E-mail me if you're interested: curt dot merrill…

  • I got one of these for my birthday a while back: http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CPK-17-PerfecTemp-1-7-Liter-Stainless/dp/B003KYSLNQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1340299013&sr=8-3&keywords=electric+kettle Heats the water to specified temp (se…
  • I see a lagoon -- or maybe a swimming hole -- well, it's a body of water of some kind.
  • Maybe Don had eaten squid recently: This study, published in February in the Journal of Parasitology (?!), presents the tale of a woman eating squid who experienced "severe pain"...

  • So the never-button-the-bottom-button rule doesn't apply to vests? Just blazers/sport coats/suit jackets?

  • Watch out for the smoke monster! Did you meet Ben Linus? Don't trust the people from the tail section.

  • This video is only kind of related to this thread because it involves a (big) cat and an oblivious baby, but it's pretty funny:

  • I would like a couple of nice hammy's.
  • I've had the fitbit for about a week. It's pretty neat, but I'm not sure I would have gotten one without the discount I got through a get-healthy program at work. If the web site were better, it would be easier to recommend. But as it is, I think it…
  • I went to the gym this morning and burned some calories. This chart proves it.
  • I listen to RadioLab and This American Life podcasts. They help me focus on listening instead of looking at the clock and thinking about how much time is still left in the workout.
  • I played Pirate Laser Tag on Friday night, met a friend for coffee and studying Saturday morning, watched the Silverbacks play a 0-0 draw Saturday night, and had an awesome brunch (amazing deviled eggs and coca-cola ham among other delicious foods) …
  • "Nuts aren't legumes!" makes me think of this:
  • I saw him doing push ups when I was last there. Didn't realize that he created it -- I just thought it was a cool habit to get into.
  • Java and Javascript are as different as night and day. Javascript is called that because the people who created wanted to trick people into thinking they were related.
  • yeah, there was an article recently that said standing still for 8 hours was pretty much the same as sitting. But if you can alternate between the two, that's supposed to be good. The benefits are in the changing of position, eg. motion. I got this …
  • This thread is inspiring. I didn't have to work this morning so it would have been easy to sleep in. But I didn't! I got up at 6:00 a.m. and hit the treadmill with the bossy British lady. Now I feel great!
  • I think I'm using the same app, Wanda. I like it a lot, now I just need to get off my butt and do it more than once a week!
