  1. San Jose is $3.50. I always get rentals with V6s and drive like I rented it with the loss prevention waiver....(I did).
  2. I have an AirCard 595 in my T60. Work is paying for the airtime so I can connect in whatever city I am in. I am pretty happy with it so far, even works in my mother in laws house (1860's brick home with plaster walls). I don't get super high speed but when you gotta read emails or check on flight times it is awesome.
  3. My new job is paying for me to get EVDO service with Verizon Wireless because I am a remote employee. I picked it up tonight at Best Buy in San Jose CA and am using it now. Very nice I can VPN over it back to the office when I am not using my Remote 802.11 solution.
  4. I was stationed in cocoa beach for a while in the Navy. Very nice beach, get something that isn't near Ron Jon's and you should be fine.
  5. Franklin Park Conservatory - Palm House
  6. Yup, I took the job. On the road like 70% of the time. Planning on 2 years of this and then getting something else either inside the company or out. Couldn't pass up a 35% raise but maintain my exact same cost of living.
  7. They locked down all Hilliard City Schools. I picked my kid up and he said that they made everyone get into the closest classroom and sit there for an hour.
  8. I am in Silicon Valley quite often now and I see crazy cars on the street. Last week I went to Santana Row (like easton only way nicer) and I saw 3 Lambos sitting at a stop sign, lined up behind one another. This morning on my commute I let a Bentley come in from the on ramp. This place is crazy.
  9. Retrobox, think "buy old outdated PCs in lots and sell them".
  10. Toronto has french schools as well and the language preservation systems in canada have odd rules.
  11. if you have to plan a party in a town you don't live in, plan it for VEGAS.
  12. You have to realize that canadian income taxes are MUCH higher a n d as a bonus, you won't be paying into social security in the US plus there is no 401k type system in canada. I would say that you need a 50% USD raise in order to make up for this stuff. Toronto is a pretty nice city to live in, I have several friend there. If you have children to need to know the language laws for school children, they will probably be forced into a french only school.
  13. Open Microsoft word and type in INVOICE in the paperclip.... Oh, look, you have a company....
  14. I had a telephone customer service job when I was 17. Started out as mail order data entry and changed to phones when I knew the systems well enough.
  15. +1 on the pics... Its a nice story but where are the pics?
  16. I watched a guy eat two loaded burgers there. It made me sick to watch it. Try the cheese-steak.
  17. Its funny, the last time I got pulled over I though "Crap, I shouldn't have been driving so fast" Apparently I should have been thinking "damn cop, I bet what he is doing is illegal I wonder what I can do to get out of this". Just remember you aren't crazy when the world really IS out to get you. BTW, when you start owning your own mistakes and rectifying them yourself you can call yourself a man.
  18. The thing is, getting past the application process will be tough so I cannot ask you during the interview. If xCorp says "must have CCNA" then your app. is immediately thrown out. It is a reality that kind of sucks but a reality none the less. I have M A N Y contacts in the networking field and have worked in several industries as a networker (govt, ISP, banking, vendor) and almost every contract that gets let, or staffing req. that goes out, requires a recognized cert as a requirement. I didn't like having to take that test again either, but it removes many of the limitations for the job seeker.
  19. Put a radio up there, it'll scare him away. Then as he is leaving, KILL HIM.
  20. I did Lee's fencing and was very happy with them. Quick, professional and clean.

    Uh...

    I am open to other cultures and all of that but um, are you freaking kidding me?
  22. http://www.rolls-royce.com/careers/usa/locations/default.jsp They have piles of jobs posted on their search, I saw quality on there a few times. Obviously you are more qualified to judge whether or not to apply for them.
  23. There is a Rolls Royce plant near Mt Vernon... There really isn't that much labor intensive manufacturing in central Ohio.
