Where was there any unneeded words? She said exactly what was needed to say to relay the lesson :}

Even if it's only One or Two items, it's good practice to get into to add a leading Zero. If for no other reason, some file managers, and even databases will sort poorly (= out of order). Its stupid but it still crops all the time; https://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/lrdict/64316/HTML/defa...

Sooooo... Its all gonna be about 'issues' this week? No chance of a 'big sea monster' rising up outta the pool??? :mrgreen: :D While 65 feet seems deep to civilians, may not be much for a larger scale para-aquatic :} Which segues to how many folk have we seen that are not within an order of magnitu...

Condolences to folk hit hard by being left behind, but suicide is always an option. Just self-administered euthanasia when prospects for quality of life are no longer worth the effort of continued existence. Some days the lure of "nothing" is very strong.

RE: site down

Been seeing a lot of those comments, but by the time I am ready to read it during lunch (between 12:00 and 13:00 PST) there have been no problems with Firefox.

As the meds begin to lift the part of depression that has a direct physical cause, they begin to gain the energy to act ... but the purely psychological component is still there. And the act of taking something every day makes you think about why you are taking it. Bad enough when it was just a gen...

AACCKK!! Too many new friends at once! Where can I hide?

So in the future be a bit more tolerant of machines and consider their feelings. I expect they will work better for you if you do. I made a guy apologize to a video cable. He was rummaging through one of our misc cabinets looking for a DisplayPort but only found an HDMI and called it crap. Told him...

mmmm, do you owe the Pun Jar a sewing machine, loom, or just a dressmakers dummy?

Why does that have to be an "or" condition? If just assembly time, I can meet you after work the rest of this week. Since you are already working on the taps, I will bring pizza.

Using the phone number version, I found this parts listing: http://www.armyproperty.com/nsn/5310-01-524-4959 ever wonder what webmasters out in the the "real" world think is going on when their sites get slammed by links from places like this? I am proud of the confusion level we are help...

are you one of those that keeps your PC running, and browser open, for weeks at a time? Heck no. My PC's get booted at the end of each day. That guarantees no open files when the backup server touches them at night; and prevents memory leaks, or anything hiding in RAM, from accumulating. And I neve...

"any secrets are under your control" : It is rather annoying to be told I am in charge of something that I have never heard of before, and do not even know what questions to ask to find out what I do not know about it! then have figure out who to keep it secret from without knowing who alr...

That is some Tough Love

bah, not even off by a single order of magnitude - just a rounding error

I'm shocked the rest of the forum has let you get away with that for so long! Perhaps you owe the Pun Jar a small window frame or set of louvers?

Comments not so much about this episode, but the trend towards deep analysis: PRO: I really do like the mini-history lessons that are coming out in the forum threads. CON: The WapsiVerse is not the IRLVerse. There are lots of background information, for individuals as well as geo-politicals, that ma...

I like how my assumptions of scale are constantly being overturned. Atsali is pretty casual about changing her size to fit the situation. The updates on perceived size of things like the cubbyhole (before the roof caved in) & wall carving & sinkhole & tunnel as more data is revealed. My ...

There's a minion of the law!
And the other said "How did ten of them ever get in that one car?"
Sadly, that one flew over my head like a soarin' Siren. Help?

minion = quantity

As if a "flock of geese" always referred to 15, so 30 of them would be "two flocks".

mmmm, points against Atsali are we have not seen her that large before, and she has just been complaining about heights in a very non-bird manner. But the rescuers hair style could be a match? And while we have mostly seen her as a sheltered teenager, there may be adrenaline triggered reserves when ...
