Have been busy "un-tacking" an old carpet prior to receiving a replacement one for the living room. This activity resulted in moderate fits of sneezing.

Oh, and I recently visited the 2009 World Aerobatics Championships - it was plenty awesome. I have lots of pics I could post if people are interested, but maybe I should wait until the move to the new server is complete.

Okay, seriously. These threads are harmless and they'll just end up starting a new one. I really think we should leave it be!

Threads merged.

[Stormkeeper]

Yay! Battuta for president!

You're my hero!

Anyways--I gave my stereo a bit of a workout earlier. The biggest problem with high-efficiency speakers is that they get too loud too quickly. All you need is a 50W/ch amp and you're off to the races.

I dealt with my university again. All holds should be clear now...

I assaulted a "graffer" at lunchtime today. Stupid bastard had it coming, .

I have failed to sleep, and changed my signature in an indirect result.

I don't get the point, at least the buyer's point of view.

A lot of auctions start with the item below market value, at least in terms of eBay. So really the auction is more of a "what is the best offer I can get for this because I can't sell it for full price". Then different buyers compete to give the best price.

Alternatively, if something goes for more than its "worth". Then the buyers are determining "how much is this worth to me?" and they pay that amount (or are willing to pay).


A show like Antiques Roadshow is kind of odd for example. The appraiser often says "this would probably go for 2000 dollar" or something to that effect. But the thing is, the Painting is only worth 2000 dollars if someone is actually willing to pay that amount. Estimated value and actual value within the auction just depends on who is there bidding really.

I used Mozilla Firefox's purge function (COMMAND + SHIFT + R) several times to get it acquainted to HLP's new server. Everything is almost back to normal now.

Take a look around. Plenty more needs fixing

[Colonol Dekker]

Bypassed entry level position and am now a team leader / supervisor.
My one stipulation on acceptance was an opt out period with no notice.
I'm still technically a temp as well. The company is well ****ed in their operational procedures.
 
I'm not tying myself down to them. drinks on friday

[Androgeos Exeunt]

Is that a promotion? Congratulations, Colonol.

[Colonol Dekker]

Sort of promotion,(kay it is) i'm working as a team leader and notified management, that unless i get a sit down meeting with them by 11 tomorrow to discuss a wage increase. I'm flat out walking and taking all documents and media relating to streamline processes i've put into effect with me.

But yeah, i'm expecting 22.5 kpa at least. Anything less (but above 19.5) and i'll be reluctant but content.

As i said, the company is screwed.

My physics-addled brain read that as "22.5 kilopascals," and I was wondering for a second what pressure had to do with your job position.

[Colonol Dekker]

Surprisingly a lot when i have to deal with (keep in line) 5 19-20 year old guys who think a hard days work involves kicking back and perving over page3.com... That's my frickin job and i earned that right

[GTSVA]

I got my Aqua Fuel Mids. xD

[NGTM-1R]

The goddamned air conditioner fried itself.

Fortunately, we were going to have it replaced on Friday. Unfortunately, it's really damn hot.

[Gortef]

Congrats on the promotion Dekker.

Damn my right shoulder has been aching the whole bloody day. It's a some sort of a "30 sec ache", meaning it hurts for a few secs on about 30sec intervals (didn't count, just a feeling). Maybe I just slept in a wrong position or something and it stops today.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

I had that with the left part of my neck for the past two days. It's okay now.
