Crazy story
I enjoyed this conversation
Some girl: …although i did see Dr. Strangelove and Dr. Zhivago before i ever saw Disney
Me: I still haven't seen Dr. Strangelove or Dr. Zhivago. I'm trying to see all the Disney movies before they put them back in the vault.
Some girl: It's pretty confusing to have no frame of reference for the cold war when you're 3
Me: I can relate. I watched Smokey and the Bandit when I was 5, and the references to Coors beer and bootlegging really threw me
Me: Although even at that age, I knew that driving 1800 miles in 28 hours would be tough. But you know what? The Snowman and the Bandit really worked together and pulled it off.
Me: It taught me about teamwork. It really is an allegory, that movie.

Sometimes you gotta preempt the Tier 1 questions
AT&T: Just to confirm, did you try the speed test through a wired connection or a wireless connection?
Me: Both times I tried it through a wired connection
Me: I'm doing the speed test on the same computer
Me: I have restarted my wireless router
Me: I have restarted my AT&T UVerse router
Me: I have restarted my computer
Me: I have not installed any new software
Me: The only thing that's changed is the result of the speed test.
AT&T: Thank you for the update.

This restaurant serves some some the best Thai food in town, but with some changes, I will make this a five star review.
1. You need to add a back patio with a fountain. The fountain should have colored lights in it, which would look really cool at night.
2. Add apple pie to the menu. My mom has a great recipe, and that’s the one you should add to the menu. I love apple pie,...

And then they should return airport security to pre-9/11 levels and let the rest of their budget be used for better purposes. Investigation and...
