    Detroit's worse than I thought

    It's interesting that the signs say "The Banks Owe Us" and "Make the Banks Pay". That boogeyman must have played better than saying, "Taxpayers owe us." I'm at a loss for exactly what the banks could possibly owe them.

    Syria

    I don't believe the issue was the embassy getting attacked. That happens under all U.S. Presidents. The issue was that the ambassador asked for help, didn't receive it, and it appears that the administration is trying to cover up their response to the attack. Additionally, this administration...

    New Laptop?

    Has anybody tried the Google Chromebooks? They are dirt cheap and look to be fairly good if you're not looking to do a whole lot with it other than Office type applications and internet.

    UNION STRIKE KILLS THE TWINKIE

    I smell a conspiracy. Had this happened before the election, it may have influenced voters against the unions and swayed the outcome. Just a coincidence that this and the Petraeus thing happen immediately following the election. Were the Bilderbergs meeting too?

    UNION STRIKE KILLS THE TWINKIE

    Hostess went out of business. No more Twinkies or Ho-Ho's. Most of my food groups are now gone. Hopefully the brands are bought by someone else. :censored:

    P90X

    I started Insanity last night. A little bit shorter workout per day and much more repetitive than P90X but quite a workout.

    I've been a big fan of Harlan Coben books lately, real easy, fun, mindless reads.

    I would just be prepared to answer questions on projects you've worked on. I have never been asked to provide sample calculations.

    big banG theory

    That show blatantly makes fun of engineers though. Sheldon has said numerous times if he wanted to learn a trade he'd be an engineer.

    Almost Grad in need of advice

    What is it that you want to do? Jobs at environmental consultants are a good place to jump in and get your feet wet, and they always seem to be hiring. However, the pay isn't usually great. Figure out what you want to do, then try to get in there. The classes you took really don't mean very...

    Recent Grad that needs advice landing a Job

    You won't look desperate. You'll look like you're willing to work hard to find a job which means once in the job you'll be willing to work hard. It creates a memory for that office of someone who came across as a professional, was engaging, and allows a face to be put with a resume which is...

    PE Exam Chemical -- Self-study Advice

    Perry's is helpful for the exam. I would stick to the textbooks that you used in school and not try to get familiar with a new book/ different nomenclature. Do plenty of problems and review information you covered in school. They will stick to the outline of exam topics. If you follow that...
