News from the move - the estimator severely underestimated the weight of our goods, at least that is what the driver is saying - instead of 15,000, he is estimating 18,000. We will see when they go weigh the truck. Thank gosh for not-to-exceed contracts.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Rule of thumb I learned when I was in the Navy: three thousand pounds per room. I've never gone over my estimate that way. Goody for not-to-exceed clauses, Suzi!

There need to be more resources for the angry and cynical, ie, people like me/us.
The cancer boards tend to run to puppies and kittens and people who write LOL a lot, with extra added wackos.

Ginger, how are they on facts? I know there's a lot of garbage about cancer around and I just wonder.

More power to those that sort of thing helps, but gosh. There needs to a place for the snide and bitter.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Diabetes boards tend to be that way too.
Not that I want everyone angry and cynical. But at least room to be angry would be good.

The accuracy of sites varies wildly, but there are some really good ones. The American Cancer Society's is good. Breastcancer.org is great. You'll find that a lot of sites, if you read the small print, are sponsored by drug companies. Often they have some good information, but I wonder whether there's an inherent bias. Once you get off the semi-official sites for the different types of cancer, it's the wild west. It's like almost every other kind of web research. The problem is not so much the nonsense as the number of people who don't recognize nonsense.
