Well my first week is in the books at the University of Florida. Now I need to rearrange some boxes and contact my movers about unloading my container tomorrow . Tomorrow morning is getting some of my medical stuff cleared up because my immunization records are older than most of the staff here.
OT: And finally, sweet release from the grip of this eternal monster

That's odd. What's their line of thinking behind this? Do they figure since I have a lot of work experience at other companies that I must be at least a competent worker? I've only worked for two other companies. 2 1/2 years at my current employer, and 6 years at my previous job.

Social media (including linkedin, facebook) make it easier to do a sniff test on a candidate, that they're being mostly honest about their experience.
Pretty much. They had my LinkedIn profile (which has a few hundred people connected and a bunch of recommendations), so perhaps that was enough for them. I also went through two phone interviews with them, plus in-person interviews at both facilities (that they flew me out to each for). My guess is that once they spent the time and money to fly me out for interviews they really didn't care if I had references.
Yikes. 1TB is a pretty healthy amount, but that's a giant fee if you go over it, and let's face it, if you're going over 1TB it's not going to be by a few gig...
I go over it pretty regularly, byproduct of "net-neutrality" where ISP can't levy fees against the content creators like Netflix for using their infrastructure.

Stand still laddy!
Speaking of LEGO, I spent 7 hours a day or two ago building the new Saturn V. Incredible set. So intricate.
That looks like a fun build. It's pretty hard to find if you don't have a lego store nearby. But excellent price point for a set of that size and likely will be very collectible.

Desert for tomorrow night as it is my one night a week where I don't care about my diet.
I'm down to right around 190 lbs while eating strict 6 1/2 days a week.
I'll take it.

I have a large Mike Peca card collection and saw this on EBay for $1,000......anyone here know why? Is it worth that? I think I got that Be A Player for like 25 cents.

Looks like it was shipped unsigned, which according to the descriptive is a mistake given its gold embossed letters. The unsigned variant were shipped with silver embossing.
A quick peek at valuation reveals nothing, my google fu failed. No idea of the worth. Dude talks a bit about it here: http://www.beckett.com/forums/printthread.php?tid=1495036&page=1

I was in a Lego store on Saturday. Good time.
Watched National Treasure this weekend. How shameful is it that I forgive the unrealistic premise of the Knights of Templar and their lost treasure and instead take issue with the anachronistic use of wire nails, rather than the more period-appropriate cut nails or forged nails, pulling out of the floorboard in the dumwaiter structure beneath the catacaombs of the Trinity Church.

One's I can just sit and watch are my favorite. Setting 'em off for everyone else is too much like work.
I was thinking you might have said calling out the wrong lady's name.

I hope everyone is enjoying their 4th.
I certainly know I am. Today is my last day of before the final push for my new location opening on Monday. So I'll work the rest of the week plus probably at least the first 10-12 days the store is open.

I turned over the old leaf. Now I'm single and getting more bitter by the day as I'm still in PI waiting for my condo to sell. I was supposed to be in Thailand the end of May but buyer canx'd the day before sale.
