  1. I saw it at of all places a United Airlines flight yesterday. As far as I could tell it was shown uncut, which alone is amazing.  It diverted me through a couple hours of the flight. Unrealistic, yes, but also amusing and a couple times laugh out loud funny. I loved the chatter amongst the people in the conference room, especially the guy who kept adding "and bi" the ignored group. A bit was stereotypical tooth hurting, the butch lesbians called in to fight, for example. And then ending all a bit to saccharine, but then it is a romcom, after all, and a bit of eye candy never hurts.

  2. The ceiling is a huge upgrade from the old dropped ceiling tiles, the tables can be covered with many variety of cloths, the carpet is ugly, and I agree the walls will be fine with the proper lighting levels. It will do, and as people say, It is Jersey.

  3. Paper gets used for the recycling, not that I believe the city actually recycles, but that's another issue.  Here, people in the stores still scream "what do you mean I need to pay for a bag" leave the groceries and walk out! It's like 7 cents, dude, and easily avoided by bringing your own bag.

    And then we have the (absolutely fabulous) cross-London Elizabeth line...   the trains are unbelievably long, internally joined seamlessly as one long tube without separation...   Canary Wharf to Soho in four stops (~15 minutes) and then on out to Heathrow...  (images picked from google)...

    London Transit does have a habit of picking our really ugly upholstery.

    my phone is almost always face-down and muted on my desk (at home) ensuring an almost permanent do not disturb feature...  also to the great annoyance of my husband who will often need to text to find me when we're out shopping together and I've drifted off...  win win   😇

    This is pretty much what I do. I screen calls in any case and never answer anything from an unknown number unless they leave a message.  My phone is always on silent unless I'm expecting a specific call like from a service technician I'm waiting for. Everything else get returned if I decide to.  I'm also vigilant on using the block feature for spams.

    I've visited thisvid for years without negative incident, both viewing and downloading content. As with all porn sites, I think it's doubly important to be sure your protection is in full force: VPN, firewall/anti-virus, popup blocker, etc.  And of course, creating a completely anonymous account at the site without any identifying information.

    Thanks for the info.

  7. Largish one in the kitchen, small ones in the 2 baths (inside the sink base) small one in the main bedroom, office type in the second which is mostly used as an office. Small in laundry room. That it, is it so hard to stand up in the living area and take your trash to the kitchen - that's usually where I'm going next anyway.

  8. We have vacation days and also what they call Personal Holidays. They came from turning in a whole bunch of more minor holidays and they now float, to take when we want to, I think there are 5 and there are some restrictions like 1 per quarter, the theory is that they're meant to be occasional and not taken in a bunch, but no one ways any attention, and we don't do any time reporting anyway. I think the personal days were to avoid paying a lot of overtime to those people who were required to work on more minor holidays.
