I learned that a company named Digital River has 40,000 OTHER companies under its umbrella (ella, ella, ella) making it nearly impossible to trace one measly transaction.

again, to whomever stole my debit card number and used it: If I catch you I shall drown you in a shallow pool of goblin-piss, under the broken-down American elm tree in the old graveyard up the road from me. Don't think I haven't given this some thought, fukker.

Sounds like ACORN.
That and may the fleas from a 1000 camels infest your armpits!

That and I hope every hair on their ass turns into a fishook!

Shit, man!

Today I learned that if you buy the super-cheap wafflemaker on sale for a paltry $8, you'd better believe that thing's going to break after just two months of use.

Except I don't think I really learned it; it is a mistake I will no doubt make again in the future.

I learned that if you get clever and realize your printer prints backwards, Quickbooks is cleverer and realizez it too and reverses the numbers of the paychecks. which means the MF expects you to acurately count out how many you need. You know what? it's easier just to correct the check numbers after the fact :lol:

I learned that there are way more women than I was aware of that think you want to marry them just because you asked them to dance and share a drink. And even more women are totally convinced that all you REALLY want is to fuck.

In my experience, when I've just assumed a guy is asking me to dance and share a drink, it's turned out what he really wanted was a fuck.

Yeah but dancing and drinking is part of the selection process. In the end, all I want to fuck is ONE of them. At a time.

I learned that computers are never good enough (fast enough, have enough RAM, etc.) for whatever game you currently wish to play on them.

Well, I already knew this, but I was reminded yesterday. :(

My son wishes to play World of Warcraft. I agreed that if he did decently on his 4th quarter report card, I would buy it and let him earn the monthly fees. We'll see how THAT works. But the family computer doesn't like it and I can't get the auto uploader to work, so I stayed up till friggin' 4:30 last night (this morning?) trying to manually download and install the umptyzillion patches it requires. Still not done. :(

I am slowly learning I may need more sleep to keep going.

Today I learned to stay away from Sears and Target. TArget had an add for XXs shorts and the lady told me that was size 42.

Today I learned that if i ignore Max for long enough when he starts 'talking' to himself in his cot too early, he'll go back to sleep, or at least be quiet.

Tha'ts great Ali, ahhh, the good ole days.

I just wish he'd sleep through the night. he did on Sat night, but so far no repeat.
