Once I found a ticket stub from a stage production I’d seen at least twenty years earlier. My favorite, though, was the time I found a fifty.

It is a shame, and it shows how weak track is as a sport. Further, it’s a commentary on how supportive Indy, as a city, is of one of the sports they’ve lured to headquarter in their city. If USATF can’t get supported in their backyard, then someone is failing.

but I’m not sure that leg power is really our #1 untapped renewable energy source 2.5 Billion Chinese and Indians on pedal generators - heck that might just work!

Try installing the Nightly Tester Tools Add-On. It will allow you to force install older extensions. Doesn’t fix the “wonky” bit, but will allow you to use the old ones until new versions are out.

Locks that key on both sides are often used in situations where there is a small window near the door, to prevent some one from breaking the window, reaching through, and turning the latch. Presumably it would be hard to reach through and blindly unscrew the thing. I’d rather just put some kind obstruction in the window though.

If I was to enter a race these days, the finish line folx would need a calendar to record my time.

we couldn’t be more opposite— it’s downright cold out here, and only supposed to improve slightly this week, but back to cold next week. we got 6 inches of fresh snow on the pass going up to mt. hood yesterday. it’s supposed to be like this until july 5…

eu recebi um emai, e até ja mendei meus dados, e agora? o que poderá acontecer? claro que o nº de conta que enviei é de uma conta que esta sem movimentação a algum tempo e não tem dinheiro,mas estou preocupada porque a pessoa ate ja ligou na minha casa

P, it’s a nit-picky thing, but the weight of the jav was, at least as I understand it, not changed; the center of gravity was. A minor detail, but old and new javs both weigh 800g, the new ones, however, “turn faster.” Wayne

P, Perhaps a decade ago, while donating blood, a needle struck a nerve, and I had intense pain at the time, but it passed quickly. I had nerve issues for several years with partial numbness of some areas around my wrist for a very long time. Just this week, I was thinking about the problem and started probing it, and am pretty sure all the damage is now gone. The effects may last a long time, and may not fully disappear, but even if it takes years, there may be some improvement. Take care and be well. Wayne

Yes. This sounds familiar! With luck, your recovery will continue like mine and sometime well down the road you will be surpised when that finger is fully productive and feels just like its nine brothers! :-)

Hmm, hadn’t thought of it that way. It was generally assumed in my time at Tufts that graduate students would not be big alumni givers, but I can see how students in an intense graduate program (i.e. law school, Fletcher, some business programs, medical schools) might contribute to those programs above their undergraduate college. If that’s cutting in to Tufts’ alumni contributions, though, why haven’t Tufts’ graduate students closed the gap some? (And why does Amherst, which must have a pretty good go-on-to-graduate-school rate, do so much better than Tufts in alumni giving, with no graduate students of its own?)

Actually, I think its thought to be rather the opposite problem. So many Tufts’ undergarduates go on to graduate school, and then donate money to that school instead.

The Pink Ladies have been to Fenway and seen the Sox live with their father as of mid-April. He says they’re good for about six innings. Maybe if they had gone with Noah, who keeps a scorecard, they could have been watching in order to keep score, but they have a few years yet.

Soooooooo jealous of you, Noah & Ben. I’m stuck in PA listening to the WRKO feed on Gameday Audio. Luckily they cut in on the Cubbies game on ESPN to finish up the 9th I’m going to the Sox game in Baltimore on the 31st with an old college pal and his 5 year-old, an annual tradition. Would M be old enough to enjoy a Seadogs game?

Last three commenters: yes, it has occurred to me that there are perfectly reasonable reasons for people to use those search strings. But please read the original entry, read mine more carefully (I’m not “advertising that I’ve done poetry analysis”; quite the opposite, in fact,) and notice comments from the likes of Som, and tell me, am I really that far off? The people looking stuff up for legitimate reasons don’t post comments like that. They see that this isn’t what they need, and they move on. Using their existence to argue that the idiots don’t exist is a logical fallacy, and attempting to make the argument with sketchy punctuation and laughable spelling does not help you carry your point.

um… yeh did it ever occur to you that some people look up poetry analysis for revision… so dont advertise that youve done a poetry analysis if you havnt

hey parker … that’s pretty cool stuff. You can still pretend you started it all if you want.

I would guess you already saw this on lifehacker, but just in case you wanted another reason to regret spending the time: http://www.z-cron.com/scheduler.html

I had a nasty cut on my thumb which also resulted in numb spot. Over the last 6 years I have progressively and slowly recovered the feeling to the point where its now back to normal.
