They are adorable. And thank you for adopting two !!
My cat cause is rescue Bengal cats. So many idiot people get them without reading up on the breed and then "dump" them. Anyway, well done and enjoy your furry family .
""Golf.com is reporting Johnson has failed three drug tests. The site says he flunked one for marijuana in 2009 and two others for cocaine in 2012 and 2014, respectively. FOX Sports 1 golf insider Robert Lusetich reports that one of those tests was at the U.S. Open.
According to the report, he was suspended for the 2012 test but it was not made public.
Golf.com also says Johnson had had a sexual indiscretion with at least one wife of a PGA Tour player. Lusetich reports that he had such indiscretions with two PGA Tour wives, one of which ended a marriage.""
Re: PGA Tour golfing star goes down on cocaine beef; suspended 6 Mos.
PGA won't confirm Johnson suspension. Their agreement with union on drug testing prohibits them from announcing action over drug use. Someone at PGA didn't like policy and leaked info to press. From: Tom Kelly
Next door to my house is a parking lot for a restaurant that is very popular with AT&T technicians. They back their truck into the parking space, and then get two red traffic cones and put one in front and one in the back of the truck. There are no back-to-back parking spaces, so one of the cones is always in the grass behind the truck.
So, why do they do that? It's not going to prevent anyone from hitting the truck, in fact, today I watched a guy in a car leave the parking lot with a cone stuck under his back bumper. Is it a company rule? What's the logic behind it?
When I worked for Viacom cable it was a rule that was instituted after a driver ran over a small child who was playing behind the truck. The idea of course is that the driver, while removing the cones will see any danger before she or he drives off.
It is for safety reasons people can see the truck & they have to go behind the truck so they can see behind it & look at the area & truck for any hazards. You should also go behind & look before backing up for safety of you & others. I always look before backing up.
Interesting post on Reddit re: Chattanooga municipal GB fiber grid
"We are The Gig City (Chattanooga, TN) - The city that is "terrifying big telecom" with our 600 sq. mile gigabit fiber grid. Mayor and network CEO here - Ask Us Anything!"
Re: Interesting post on Reddit re: Chattanooga municipal GB fiber grid
Well, not always. Has to be the right kind of Socialism. Centrally-planned economies like the USSR always failed horridly at Telecom - not enough output to build out infrastructure for the demand. Moscow only got digital switching in the late-80's! Of course this is not a good example, but it just has to be stated for discussions sake.
But in the USA's case I agree. Many, if not a majority of large infrastructure projects have been financed by local, state, and federal government. I do not see why Broadband infrastructure should be classified as different from roads, water systems, power grids. Private industry has proven unwilling to provide service, just like the for-profit electric companies of the 30's.
A little regulation, some public projects, and the situation will improve just like rural electrification back in the day.
It sure makes more sense than starting another war at untold costs with many bodies. Broadband would not do that. But the Telco lobby + Telco boot-lickers here would want you to think that competition would kill children, spread cancer, etc
A government built fiber network with private providers on it. Much like how many car and gas taxation builds roads, But I can choose to hire Fedex or UPS or USPS when I need a package delivered
I kept it simple: Onions, celery, mushrooms, and cheddar. Used country crock in the Pan, 3 eggs . Side of toast, also with country crock. It just tasted awesome for some reason.
had an authentic sushi dinner and shopped a nearby japanese grocery (in sunnyside queens) which was so uncharacteristically cheap that i plan to return and stock up more.
next is authentic austrian sausage dinner and a 3D movie. any more of these rained out summer weekends and I will have to find where homer simpson get's his blue stretch pants.
Start my bus driver CDL training 8/23 for the weekend course. 3 1/2 weekends.
I have several friends in Iowa who have Class A CDLs (tractor trailer). CDL jobs are decent paying jobs.
I was watching YouTube videos this morning of truckers who couldn't back their trailers up worth diddly. Took them 10 minutes to get it centered in the dock. And Alley Dock is on the CDL road test. Should be easier on a Class B than a Class A.
I heard that Verizon is using two small cells this year at the Iowa State Fair, I am getting very fast speeds. »www.speedtest.net/my-res ··· 13855440 XLTE is here!
The back hall is much faster this year too. Ping much lower, getting 70ms on my laptop 4G LTE hotspot.
After upwards of a year for serious hunting, and 17 years of wishing finally was able to seal the deal on my dream Navigator. My payments are a little higher than I would have liked, but its a 2013 (as opposed to a 2011, which is what I thought Id end up with), with 20,000 miles and 4 years left on the factory warranty. Red exterior (would have preferred black, but any color but white is good), charcoal interior (the color I wanted), navigation system w/ SiriusXM and Ford Sync, heated/cooled front and second row seats, and of course the one thing I will never be without again, a moonroof. Not sure what other nonstandard options and features are on it but I will be having fun with my new toy shortly, should have it in a week and a half to two weeks.
Only two decisions I need to make yet, 1) What temperature xenons will I be installing (toss up between 6000K and 12000K) and 2) where is my first road trip with this thing going to be!
Thanks. Part of the reason it took so long was because the Navigator went into production in May 1997 for the 1998 model year when I was 12 years old. I was fan of the Expedition, and then when Ford came out with it's more expensive and chromed out twin cousin, I fell in love.
My first car was a 1998 Mercury Mountaineer that I got on my last day of high school in '03, in 2008 I went for an '05 Aviator, which was built on the Explorer platform and a mini Navigator, and now that I have a great job and was able to build up (again) a nice savings for a down payment, I felt it was a great time to finally make the leap and get my self into a lot of debt for the next handful of years
Most kids dream of owning some sports car, not me my dream was always a Navigator. Never had a desire for some exotic import. Hell, I don't even like riding in, let alone driving smaller vehicles. Now that the next generation of Navigator is going all sissy with that Ecoboost crap, I felt it was the perfect time as the 2014 would be the newest I'd ever get.
