Man, I love looking at data! In my old zip code, I was right about on the median, which makes theoretical sense given the number of households with more than one wage earner and the number of housing projects.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm not sure why MP is bringing this up now...on the one hand, they created a situation *so* fucked that it is practically, imo, a secondary condition in the "Why Mackensie Can't Get It Together"-stakes(Could something you start with your dad *ever* really be consensual? Not that I'm asking for myself; my dad is a whole other class of fucker.) Honesty is good for recovery, but why tell millions on Oprah?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jesse, where do you find that data on median incomes?

Some of it was in the wikipedia article on NYC, some in the NYTimes real estate section -- that's where I found it by zip code. (But I got there by googling "[neighborhood] median income")

HR just came around and handed everyone a piece of paper with the new door codes on it. Seriously?? On so many levels. (a) Paper copies for everyone? (b) We didn't do this when we had layoffs in the spring? (c) This is what you were doing instead of [other seemingly more urgent HR tasks]??

HR just came around and handed everyone a piece of paper with the new door codes on it.
When the door codes changed at my old job, it usually meant someone was fired in a escorted out the door kind of way.

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

re: firemen in bed
Yes, they can be lots of fun, but be prepared for flashbacks when they think the bedroom is on fire and they're yanking you out of bed in preparation to throwing you out the bedroom window to save you.
Took a couple of years for him to stop doing that.

For a single person, you probably want the per capita income, not the household income.
megan, it sounds like you might want to look at Glassdoor.com.
