It was actually just through AT&T, so probably of no use to you? It was also $10 with contract renewal, which I will now have to spend ~$200 to get out of, to go with Ting.

Everyone hates on the iPhone but mine has seriously changed my ******* life.

FWIW, I set up a corporate account through AT&T and to share 3 phones with unlimited talk & text plus 6GB of data its $200 a month.

So.....today is my first time reporting a new hire and I have no idea what I'm doing. lol

I cant wait to start the quarterlies and IFTA reporting afterwards.

Ting will sometimes have really good phones up for sale that are refurb'd from time to time.

I'm on vacation. It rocks.

I've been coming here for the last 10 summers straight, staying between 1 week and a month depending on each year's circumstances. (This year sadly only a week; business is booming back at the shop and I'm also in the middle of negotiations to buy a restaurant, so just a quickie this year.)

Anyway, the place is on Wellesley Island, which is between the US and Canada in the St Lawrence/Thousand Islands region. There is almost nothing on the island but a state park and this little tiny village of 250-ish Victorian "cottages" (read that "huge Victorian houses built in the 1800's by wealthy families seeking to escape the heat down-state.). Its separated from the mainland by a river and seemingly 75 years of progress; one road in, sketchy cell phone coverage, no cars, no crime (nobody locks their doors, kids can safely roam without worry of them being snatched up). It's truly The Last Innocent Place Left On Earth.

Here's the view from my front porch. It doesn't suck.

Hmm. This gives me an idea.

Would you mind sharing the address with me?

Lol- sure thing; it's your hide. In all seriousness, an "outsider" would be spotted within seconds of arriving on the island. 99% of the "cottages" have been owned by the same families for 100+ years, and the locals are so fiercely protective of this place and "the vibe" of it that an outsider bringing fuckery would likely be torn to shreds by a mob of residents. You might make it onto the island, but you sure as hell wouldn't make it off.

Of course, if "the idea" were alluding to was to take a totally mellow vacation in a place that is diametrically opposite from San Diego in every way, PM me. I'll hook you up.

No, that wasn't it.



An electron is driving down the highway, and a policeman pulls him over.

The policeman says: “Sir, do you realize you were travelling at 95 miles per hour?”

The electron replies: “Oh great, now I’m lost.”

Heisenberg says that, when dealing with subatomic particles, the more you know about an object's position the less you can know about its momentum, and vise-versa.

Is it a bit like trying to measure the firmness of a nerf ball by shooting it with bullets?

New York is practically a disarmament state, any bad guys would probably be fine.

Pacifc Rim was good. I nearly slipped on the floor from the mess I made nerd-gasming the entire time.
