Wait... a kid threatened you after you ran out of coffee and your phone broke?
Do you have an address for us to send flowers to his memorial?

Of course, it was a live chat, but yes, I did.

"Could the Living Dead....be dead real?"
I just saw an add for "Zombies - The Truth" where a bunch of "experts" talk about the chance of a zombie outbreak and how devastating it would be.....on National Geographic. Always nice to see a once-great channel slide further and further downwards into crap.

What is the point of making a shockproof watch capable of surviving depths of 200 metres if the strap is going break after 3 months.
Can't even get another strap fitted cause of Casios weird ass design. Ah well, a few staples and plastic cable ties have sorted it.

Ah, one of those.
I got fed up with replacing the bloody thing every six months and got one with a metal strap. A bit steeper, but I've had it five years and it hasn't broken yet.

Skagen is the way to go - they're reliable, as good-looking as Movados, super thin and comfortable, and can be had under $100 U.S.

Raises for Teachers have yet again been cancelled in favor of giving bonuses to local government leaders. Starting tomorrow, all educational personnel loyal at the local level will begin work to rule.
Yet another reason why I hate people.

Could be worse - you could have Chris Christie for a governor, to say that teachers don't deserve the health benefits that were fairly negotiated in their CBA; that Abbott school districts need to turn over their budget surpluses to the state government even though the Abbott money was federally generated; that teachers should pay out for benefits in line with "other state employees" even though teachers
aren't state employees and negotiate their own CBA's/contracts; and in the current school budget crisis which he caused by massive educational cuts, to tell the federal government that his state doesn't want 184 mil of federally-allocated money for education. He only "agreed" to take that money for education when the feds said that if he doesn't want it, they'll come in and distribute it
their way.

I think we should just execute the local government and move to state level control. Its clear to me that most of these people don't deserve to live.

Is it just me, or has Christie gained a lot of weight since the election?
