You're sealing your own fate, Troy! What does "careful" mean if not total hermetic seclusion? I mean, you tell me....
Ropes Course is fan-freaking-tastic. I love the work those two do. When I saw it, I laughed until I had tears in my eyes....
Uh oh, Velvet Jesus is checking out that cleavage on display...pretty intently....
Word up! It's absolutely true, Jeremy. The intangibles with streetcars and trolleys are often overlooked, and yet by any practical measure POPULARITY has got to be a key criterion. You couldn't pry st...
Obviously the key is to preface things with: "Hey, I've got a funny joke about a bomb!"...
Don't get me started on late starts. It used to be a "secret" that the curtain was held 5 minutes for latecomers. But now it seems like people are counting on that. I've seen people strolling in five ...
Rhubarb skeptic! Now I know what to put in that About Me box on online profiles....
Jetpacks are the REAL unproven technology, Troy! I'm not risking my life like that....
Matt: Er...well, it's a couple see, and they're expecting... Actually, I think it was one of those moments when you're editing and the computer decides you want to delete the word *next* to the one yo...
Hint for food, Hartl for movies. Those were the days... ...

PIstaffer: the "more" part of the layoffs was in reference to the Seattle Times layoffs--sorry if that didn't come across at first glance. It's my understanding that there's a hiring freeze on at the ...
Railing against rail, Ron? A pun? *sigh*...
Oh, they've gone on record as saying they'll keep the Safeco name, so yeah, it should be Liberty Mutual Field in approximately 2 years....
Yeah, once again, Amtrak's default policy is to say nothing at all. The train stops, they may apologize for the mysterious delay, but they don't tend to tell you if there's been a serious accident, th...
To the left, Ronald. ...
On the one hand, it's cool to show people how much of an impact their personal lives have on the environment; on the other hand, this footprint doesn't take into account the systemic inefficiencies th...
