Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10

Ha. I was sure something like that would happen. A theater played a preview for Sausage Party before a screening of Finding Dory.

Re: Lame Claim to Fame

My algorithms and data structures professor once mentioned during one of his random aside stories that one time he rode in a hotel elevator next to Lou Ferrigno.

Lame Claim to Fame

I've been to the simple nondescript in-mall Chick-fil-A where the Chick-fil-A sauce was first served.

That test has a number of questions not unlike Einstein's Zebra puzzle, or, the Penny Press Logic puzzles at the grocery store, right? Better you than me, friend. I stink at those :)

Worst beverage you've had

This one made me wonder what's the worst beverage I've had. Probably Inca Kola. Bright yellow and tastes like concentrated bubble gum.

Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10

Now the gas stations in my area advertise Regular, Diesel, and Ethanol Free. The ethanol free is the most expensive. Seems I remember when they tried to push the goodness of ethanol.

Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10

Seems like Diet Coke Lime is disappearing, if only in my area :( Used to be seen by me in 2L, 20 oz, and lots in 12 packs of cans in all the stores. Now just three 12 packs at Walmart. No I didn't hoard those :)

Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10

Compared to United where when my old company merged with another our insurance group id changed I had to get a new United account and register a new online account when essentially at the same company.

Re: My new job insurance story, it was funny to me what happened. Years ago at my previous job I had Aetna then switched to United. Now at this new job I chose Aetna because with this company it was a better deal than United. When I went to Aetna to see if I could register for an online account like...

Re: BQ 85849 Windows 10

When my computer first went from 7 to 10, my HP printer wasn't even seen by the system anymore; I had to go find and reinstall the drivers (since I had lost the CD that came with it). Later a Windows update happened and once again the system lost the drivers and I had to reinstall again myself.

Re: Daylight Saving Time Ending Experiment

Today Daylight Saving Time began at 2:00 AM. Namely, it went from 1:59 AM to 3:00 AM. I set my phone's alarm for Sunday, March 13, 2016 at 2:01 AM. The alarm went off at 3:01 AM. Interesting.

Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10

With my last day of my old job this past Friday and my first day of my new job tomorrow, the thought that has been floating in the back of my mind all weekend was What if a car ran me down while I don't have life or health insurance?

#85655 the idea that the party in Congressional power can simply ignore the process instituted by the Constitution until a time more convenient to them definitely has the potential to bite the entire party or system.

Re: 85636, 85572: websites "to the max"

Sounds like some South Korean kids have an Internet problem. At least to the point where they have made rehab centers. And an actual diagnosis by medical doctors there. One-quarter of teens diagnosed with internet addiction will be hospitalized in a government-sponsored center, like Dr. Lee's pract...
