It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So the discussion about refresh rate yesterday...does a higher one give headaches or what? What's the measure here?

Lower refresh rates give some people (like me) headaches.

I think 60hz is at the bottom end. 75hz is the minimum if you are susceptible to these headaches.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What bugged in the interview, Heather?

Bipedal Exo-Skeletal Semi-Robotic Vehicle for sale on eBay. You ride in it.

Ooh, the shipping cost is $8,000.

I suppose you could just walk home in it....

Also, a few weeks ago Newsweek had an interview with an engineer from Honda's NA division. I have loved all Hondas I or my family have ever owned, but after reading the interview, I'm ready to say I'll never own another make.

Why not?

My roommate is among the 10 percent who don't FF. She will when I'm present, because she knows I think she's stupid if she doesn't, but left to her own devices, she's too lazy to bother.

move out and draw fire

I was gonna say that about monitors and refresh rates. Some are particular. I have to have a pretty high refresh rate, and my old work monitor couldn't do it.

I have built Ikea shelves. As much as I want to put things on them now, it's midnight:30. I'm going to bed.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I googled, and apparently it's not an issue with lcd monitors. I think I'm having a problem with squinting because the monitor faces a big, sunny window.
