Last night's session went as follows (in order of low to high score):
156
170
199
205
214
I've been bowling Wednesdays with some co-workers for the last 6 weeks or so and it really feels good to be back doing it. Didn't realize how much I missed doing the bowling thing. Definitely brings back good memories from those Saturday mornings in jr high and high school.
On another sport subject...played 9 holes at Eastern after work last night as well and made an easy 10 over par. Amazing what a couple of different clubs can do!

Apparently if you want anything you've gotta whine and bitch about it. And, of course, the home owner isn't to blame right? F'n BS!

Nine Degrees That Put You on the Fast Track to $100K - yahoo.com
2. Computer Engineering
75th Percentile Starting Pay: $68,100
Years for 75th Percentile to Reach $100K: 7 to 9
Computer engineers usually have training in electronics, as well as hardware and software design. They are involved in many high-tech fields, working on designing everything from microprocessors to supercomputers. As computers become ever-more ubiquitous in our lives, computer engineers are found in an increasing number of industries. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), computer engineering will be among the fastest-growing occupations between 2008 and 2018. After 10 to 12 years on the job, the top 25 percent can expect to earn $114,000 a year.
Not that I'm making anything close to that, but at least I know my degree has some gurth behind it.

The government now says Social Security will run out in 2033...four flippin' years before I become eligible...nice! And that's why I'm saving my pennies now!
Poor economy worsens Social Security's finances - finance.yahoo.com
Medicare's hospital insurance fund is projected to run out of money in 2024, which is unchanged from last year. The trustees, however, said Medicare spending continues to rise.
Man, you thought we were in a crisis now, give it another 20 years.

Hodgkinson testified that Harris drank between 2.1 gallons and 2.6 gallons of Coke every day.
Over 2 gallons a day!? That's more than 7 liters of Coke...IN ONE DAY! That's a lot of any flippin' liquid to drink each day, but soda wouldn't be my first choice. Check out the link below for more info. It's a pretty amazing read.
