"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I'd say that it rhymes with meh .

It seems only fair that if I get it I thank her with a percentage. What is reasonable percentage for a referal under those circumstances?

I don't know that I'd do a percentage, I would take her out to a nice dinner, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, that was my thought as well. A percentage seems so...tawdry.

Also, dude, they've given me this Mission: Impossible shit to access documents on the Major Pharmaceutical Company server. It's a SecurID doohickey that changes six-digit numbers every six or eight minutes. Those six digits plus four other digits comprise the password.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Women who can't have an orgasm by doctor's orders should not have to fold laundry.

Nuns must wear some wrinkly habits.

What is even happening?

Cindy, did I tell you that DH found an itunes playlist of all the music that had been featured on VM? I haven't looked at it yet--but I'm going to because now I have a computer that actually supports itunes.
Excellent!

Cashmere, I meant to respond to your other post, earlier, but then I was looking at all the music from your link to Noggin. We downgraded from digital to regular cable months ago, and we lost Noggin in the bargain. The kids miss it a little, but not that much. I miss the music!

Yeah, that was my thought as well. A percentage seems so...tawdry.

Whereas if there's a pudding cup for dessert? The opposite of tawdry.

Well she is not in the same state or even the same coast. So dinner not an option. You really think a percentage is tawdry?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Now you've got your favorite bits on line! I mostly just like the music, myself. I'm trying harder to keep the tv off for most of the day, punctuated by single programs that Owen can watch if he's very good. Or if I need to cook lunch.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I don't think a percentage is tawdry. I would think 3-5% would be good. Or, you can send her a thank you gift (gift certificate or something).

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

A percentage kind of implies that she did this for the money. I think a gift certificate enclosed in a hand-written thank you card would be very good.

I see nothing wrong with this. It's business. Freelancers need to make money.
