So, how far into a relationship is it appropriate to check the person's credit? (Asking for a friend, don't freak out.)

If anyone really does ask, you can tell them, after you give 'em a day or so to guess - I'll be out for several days - gonna be a LONG week at work this week. :)

33 kWh. That's 33 kilowatt-hours. 33 kWh costs you $3.63 plus tax here in Cumming, Georgia right now. (Electricity costs 11 cents per kWh here, it costs 8 to 34 cents across the USA.) Does anyone know what the significance of 33 kWh is? (jasonc - You are not allowed to answer if you have seen...

We can't read your posts here or on FB and not already know this about you. Edited, ironically, I had to fix my grammar.

Thanks, all. How was my weekend? (Someone WAS going to ask, right?) Well, 'poetic' would work. I had the car out all weekend and left my sister's today a little early as I was worried about rain. (I am getting too old and tired to wash the car AGAIN already.) Well, I returned the car to...

And why am I posting at 12:40am ? Life has been SO busy since the first of the year. The new job is a bit overwhelming, but I'm glad I made the move. The title "Engineer" is one I am earning on a daily basis. I've had to brush up on my math, go back and read a lot of FCC law concerning...

My high school years were hell. I hated that place. I hated the worthless and asinine "guidance counselors". I hated SO many of my fellow students - what a bunch of creeps they were. I never belonged there. Left in the 11th grade with a D+ average. Went to 'night school' or "adult ed"...

I think it was funny, but then, I'm known as Captain Sarcasm in some circles. So, would someone PLEASE tell me why anyone would throw their life away on drugs? Any kid with a room-temperature IQ knows the risks and dangers. Please tell me what the big deal is about a "high". Please tell...

(Sent to me by a female friend, so dont' give me any crap) What do you call a blonde in a brunette wig? Artificial intelligence.

In my dreams, women often appear. I have realized something, in my dreams, I find that the following is how I perceive female characters: Brunettes as "sophisticated, exotic, upper class" Brown/Sandy/Red heads as "intellects" Blondes as "sexually promiscuous and free spirited, often...

Much to my amazed surprise, my younger brother has contacted me for the first time since 2002. He has been giving myself and my sister the silent treatment since then. Neither of us have a clue as to why - as the last I talked to him, things were fine. All I know now is, he is interested...

Yea, that's like "Mame", I know a few women who HATE that term. One lady at the office will correct you, "In the south, we say 'Dear', not 'Mame or Madam', Mark".

So, is everyone ready for me to re-post my diatribe on how the earth is both young and old at the same time - and that the argument is a waste of time? :poke

It is hard to add to what ezrider said, but you are a bit right. Let me restate myself, the Bible is NOT a science text. However, God did inspire the writers such that you can catch a glimpse of science in it. When I read Gen 1:1-3, and in fact the rest of Gen 1, and then read about the...

You aren't an ex-smoker are you? :)

"Firmament" is a word, essentially, without meaning. From the wiki on it, which is reasonably referenced: """The word "firmament" is used to translate rāqîa‘ (רָקִ֫יעַ‎), a word used in Biblical Hebrew. It is derived from the root raqqə‘ (רָקַע), meaning "to beat or spread out", e.g., the...

I just got new wheels for my sports car. I will be IRRESISTIBLE to those hot soccer moms now! :)

I can't speak for him, but I'm tired of the discussion. Anyone who wants to believe that man is warming the planet and that we are all gonna die can go ahead and believe that. Just like they can believe the earth is 6,000 years old - or that it is 14 billion years old (it is neither, and it...

My cardiologist is fine, it's my GP that is driving me nuts.

Actually, my cardiologist is a group of three vascular surgeons. The guy who saw me in the hospital is one of the three I see each July. :)
