Random Thoughts Part 5: Time to Split Again

[WWGD]

Tough on the back and I haven't touched the end of the driveway near the street. If I shovel that, the plow will just fill it back in. I shoveled for 5 hours yesterday and this morning, it looks like I didn't do a thing - except for the mountains of snow next to the driveway. One thing that really helped was to use my recycling bin to pull the snow to where I wanted to dump it. Saved a ton of walking back and forth along with not having to carry the snow.

Now I feel spoiled about complaining that Pizza Hut is not delivering.

Nothing...Kitchens in my area as you might know don't have as many ready-made or prepared ingredients. So it'll be tough to cook anything here, but this is truly a pretty good market.
Admittedly I am not patient enough to wait for any foods to get done after many steps and hours.

Fire to the tin!

Me too, anything taking over 30 minutes to cook is a nope. Finding me cooking something for over an hour is because I had no idea what I had gotten myself into when I began.

I would have to agree with that.

This way I became a specialist in carbon solid state physics
And did you know that even water can be burned? However, in this case the calcium part dominates the carbon part.

I've never seen snow. I wish I was in the blizzard...



Time: 1:15 LOL! Norwegian is not impressed.

Some US Citizens: OMG!
Tourists: Yeah! This is fun, hahaha!
Norwegian: *Not impressed*

EDIT:

And did you know that even water can be burned?

Really? How? Don't you mean boil?

Moore's law may be coming to an end : http://www.technologyreview.com/featuredstory/400710/the-end-of-moores-law/page/6/

Still, it seems to have ended a while back: a PC with 4GB RAM and 2GHZ processor costs around the same now as it did 2 years ago when I bought mine.

Will finally get to use my heavy duty Winter boots. They weight around a couple of pounds each, though.

Saw in some shows on TV this BBC logo and I tried to look at the meaning of it, like what those letters stand for. Guess what is the first thing Google throws at me? I'm not even going to say it. Come on Google, can't I get anything serious these days? *sigh*

I know I joke a lot, but there are times when I want to be serious.

EDIT: It's British Broadcasting Corporation. In case someone is looking for it.

Well, I woke up about 7 AM and went out for coffee. I observed it was a warm, sunny morning, traffic was light and normal, none of the power had gone out, everything was fine. With a sigh of relief I wiped my brow and thanked goodness that San Diego had come through Jonas unharmed.

I was driving this truck, in all pictures...

Was the word "COOL" placed deliberately on the side of that truck?

Are you actually referencing an article written in the year 2000 in an argument that Moore's law may be ending?

Ouch, forgot to check the date. Still, I have been reading about it recently. Will look for a fresher source.

Nope. It's only boiling in the beginning but it ends up burning the calcium carbonate in it ...

D..., grandpa made it into the final.

Calcium Carbonate in water? Do you live near a Chemical plant () ?

I was guessing. Any calcium molecules for sure.

(RANT) More than #$% 40 minutes to download an e-book --for pay, not a free one. EDIT: I am near a B&N, may just settle for physical book. All this technology and after an hour I end up walking to the bookstore. Life is a cycle.

My first thought was, which I did not write: steeling may have been faster.

You're sadly right.

No. I made a grammar mistake.

German humor?

German humor?

I don't know. Once on our way home from a pizzeria I made a remark which I thought it was funny. One of my friends laughed, whereas the other one did not. He then asked: "Why do you laugh. Did you understand it?" The answer he got was: "No, but I learned when to laugh. He'd rather lose a good friend than a bad punchline."

I have an excuse for tonight. The Bronco's defense ruined my evening.

No problem, sorry for my over-seriousness.

I am sitting in a coffee shop , close to the entrance , and almost everyone coming in makes a few jumps on top of the rug right in front of me, to wipe their shoes clean. It looks like a small dance. I take it as a dance they do to honor me. Hey, it works for me.

But Psinter is here to help:

Steering to the near B&N may have been faster.

So, I noticed it's 8:30 PM here and decided I had better check to see if the new X-Files was on at 9 or 10. It turns out they aired it at 7:00 ! and I missed it!

What idiot schedules a show like that at 7:00 P.M. ?
