River ,'Jaynestown'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The fountain had better last indefinitely.
Yeah, I was gonna say.
I'd be happier with glass or stainless steel bottles (some of the glass bottles my seltzer is currently delivered in are probably older than me and in perfect working order), but still - seltzer on demand is a very good thing.
Which makes the per-book cost 40 cents. Which co-worker still flatly refutes.
Maybe your co-worker should audit a math class. A 2nd grade math class.
I am glad my middle school science teacher drilled making sure you ended up with the right units into my head. $/book, dude. Get the units right, then plug the numbers in, see that Teppy's right. Eta: this is what happens when you abandon the metric system.
I have a glass soda charger, and I love it, but having only one (that holds only a quart) makes me use it less than I'd like to. I am intrigued by the soda machine. Esp. the penguin, of course, but ooh pricey!
How much are new CO2 cartridges?
How much are new CO2 cartridges?
They refill them for $20, which I think (though I'm not sure) includes shipping.
Their CO2 cartridges are a weird proprietary design, so that you can't get them refilled some other (cheaper) place -- that's the only thing that gave me reservations about buying it.
I finally decided in favor of it just because of all the plastic bottles I buy every week. Even though I recycle them (usually), it would be better if they didn't have to be made in the first place.
I don't understand the brain that can't follow this:
I tried, very patiently, to explain that with 1,000 books, an extra charge of (to make it easy) ONE GODDAMN DOLLAR per book would equal $1,000. So therefore $2.50 per book would be $2,500. NOT $400.
I saw the earwax video on Countdown. It's pretty embarrassing, because it doesn't look like he was doing something else...it's pretty overt.
Yeah, I can totally get swapping the numbers and getting the wrong answer. It's the sticking to it after the error has been pointed out that I don't get.
I'm leaving for the day so I won't be able to follow-up on this, but if you had something wrong with one foot that required you to wear a tennis shoe (for example), would you wear a tennis shoe on the bad foot and a regular, work-appropriate show on the good foot, or two tennis shoes?

I would wear shoes that matched, because the heel height of two different shoes may very well be different, and that'll fuck up your hip.
