The halcyon days
When you're a kid they're actually fun. When you're a young adult they can make you sound interesting in job interviews. When you have kids they serve to remind you of all the fun you could be having. When you're old they fill the days that would otherwise be filled with regrets.

Not that it was a particularly good show, but I'm surprised Ironside got canceled already on NBC after 3 episodes. Most shows, especially episodic ones like Ironside, take awhile to establish an audience. Not sure how they can come to a decision after three shows.
On that note, they keep talking about the 18-49 demographic being key. However, I'd say it's the 18-49 female demographic that they care about. I mean, what guy watches Chicago Fire or The Voice? Yet both are highly rated shows.

I need some help. I did pretty well at the interview I had last Tuesday and sent a thank you email on Wednesday. Last Thursday, the guy responded saying thanks and that I should hear from them soon. It has been a week since he sent his response. When do I follow up with the "hearing back" part?

Most of the places I interviewed with would let you know within 2 weeks or so. If he made it seem like it would be sooner, maybe email them on Monday?
Slow your roll. If you have another offer on the table from ABC Corp it's okay and tell them you're on a deadline with ABC Corp, but that you were hoping to hear from the firm you're waiting on before deciding. Don't make this a powerplay; it should be done modestly. Otherwise give it a couple weeks. You don't want to seem desperate.

It is not for everyone, but it does have an appeal.
I just bought at auction three signed first editions by Edward Gorey. He has a quirky sense of dark humor that appeals to me. Or had, he died in 2000. Like his ABC book, a half century old now, which I do have a first edition of:
Signed books (or other objects) are a connection to the person I suppose, albeit a very tenuous one. But good investments as well if you know what you are doing.

the right autographed book is a guaranteed panty-dropper. i found a signed copy of Eugene O'Neill's Ah, Wilderness purchased at Caliban on Craig street to be quite effective.

Makes sense. I'm just trying to get out of my current lease as soon as possible so I don't owe even MORE money for breaking it.

No, it really is true.
Once I found a hot girl who loved my porn collection, I knew that she was a keeper.

Have you actually met her face to face yet?
A lot of 'women' who play computer games are actually dudes.

meat & potatoes late night menu.... duus. i think i died and went to heaven.
on a side note (since we're talking about ladies), pittsburgh is a rough place to be if you're a 20something and single. i really need to move unless i want to exclusively date college girls, which has its perks.. but also its drawbacks.

Of course they do not tell you that the majority of those women are in their 80's plus, but still the odds are in your favor if you are not too picky.
Or are into 80 year old women, because that is just how you roll.

I may be older but I'm never forgetting #47 & #41
So I just looked up who Rob Ford is (I had no idea he was Toronto's mayor).
Are we sure he isn't Chris Farley reincarnated and he's filming Black Sheep 2 when he actually runs and wins an election of his own?

What the hell is wrong with the residents of Toronto? I mean Chris Farley was funny, but electing him to public office?

I do not live there, and am unfamiliar with what went on, but can speculate.
I doubt that they knew much of this when they voted for the guy.
But you never know.
Washington DC knew Marion Barry was a crackhead and kept reelecting him Mayor anyways.
