Speaking of Manh, I drove by their offices and gave them the salute for you, Holland and Seetch yesterday!

Stereo, eh? As long as you make phone calls on it so you can keep two hands
on the wheel....
You've got children to protect! No driving like a MANH employee!

I don't know. They are both outdated.

Curious, Cell Phone Guru Inc., I see your IP address is from Portland, OR. Are you familiar with Electronic Vagrant's phone?

Just wondering, whose cell phone is technologically superior, yours or Electronic Vagrant's?

Now that we have the Bread Beckers recipe book, I can make you some delicious, healthy cereal and you can once again resume waking up to a bowl of granola and almond milk. All will be right in the world.

Thanks, that article really freaks me out...

I think I'm going to do an intervention when I come over. I'm bringing loads of junk cereal and donuts. Oh yeah, we'll also dunk them in half and half.

I've been to a few and they are terrible.

I should go, but what will it get me? A quicker update on their laziness?

You should go to one of the meetings. Or send me. Or better yet, Zach - appoint him as your attorney in fact for this purpose They will do anything to get rid of him.

If they need a quicker review of the contract, I'll do it pro bono. That means "for the bone" for all you unlearneds out there.

Part of me also wants to join the HOA, just to be the voice of reason. I
would probably fail, but one can always have hopes and dreams.

HOAs are a widely accepted boondoggle whereby a small group of nosy neighbors impose ridiculous regulations or impede needed advances in a community. The HOA cares big time what color your drapes are, but it takes them 8 months (at a minimum) to figure out if they want higher speed internet. At some point in my life, I'm going to join an HOA and vote against every single thing and introduce resolutions to disband during every meeting.

It is difficult for us to get everything together - especially because we are both at work for 8 or 9 hours. I think that if we plan our meals and maybe even do some chopping/prepping the night before, that might cut down on some of the meal prep time. Well figure it out AND we'll eat healthy, exercise, spend our money responsibly and have enough time for some lazy time.
LOVE YOU! Great post!

Theft would be a big problem for the growers. Nobody goes and steals oranges en masse, but I bet there would be lots of high school kids who'd go and steal a couple plants in the middle of the night.

It may be urban myth, but I thought the federal government grows some for their use. I wonder how its handled in that regard.

R-FID would be key, as I'm sure they want to track every bit of their product. Do beverage companies do the same thing? I wonder if they see higher theft rates than other companies.

I think being married actually helps me accomplish a lot of those goals. My lovely wife doesn't enable my daily cereal dinners, so when either of us wants to work out, the other person can make the meal. In addition, we sometimes get the pre-made meals, but then try to spice them up a little bit with some extra veggies or other added ingredients.

I still think that I need to increase my non leisure and exercise activities, but being boring has its advantages. Also the fact that I commute 27 feet to work helps me get my 8 hours per night.

Re: 2009 Blogging Resolutions

Moogie — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 17:39:34 -0000

Great idea! Perhaps a goal in resolution form may be more motivating. I, too, enjoy writing a blog, but I, too, NEVER seem to have the time to do it. By the time I even think about it, the event is in the past and somewhat hazy and writing about it isn't as exciting. So I'm writing here for two reasons. You only have one blog so far this month, and that one blog doesn't count towards your quota. So my suggestions for your two required blog posts:
1. Write today about what's up in DC the day before the inauguration - what's it like over your way relative to congestion, traffic, happenings, etc.
2. Write a blog about the economic "crisis" and how it's reflected within your social network. Are your friends, neighbors, or their families talking about it much, saving more, having financial difficulties, what?
2A. Alternative to #2: Write about cat throw up - there seems to be much fascination online with cat emesis. Tell us about the frequency and content of your cats #3. Would vomit be #3?... seems only right. Seriously, I hate the word vomit - it just sounds disgusting. Someday I'd like to write a blog about the foot long ribbon that Meeka (the kitten) swallowed, and then #2A will make sense.
3. Bonus idea! Write about Blago - at least Illinoisans will enjoy it, or wait, wait, maybe not! For years he has hacked off the IL House and Senate and now he's going to pay. He didn't play ball with them, went through the back door with lawyers to get around them, and now he's dead meat, as John Kass would say. There will be no mercy (except from his sister-in-law).
Also, that was a joke about setting your expectations low, wasn't it? Because your list is more than enough for one year!
