But I will say that Outback at least does not pay minimum wage to to-go employees ($3.50/hr), so your tips were very much needed and appreciated, even if we didn't do too much. a couple bucks was fine with me, though some people do tip 15-20%..why I don't know.

so its our job to make up for outback sucking?

If its a bartender, I tip about 10%. If its a counter person, then a dollar or so. I never go to chains.

per bernanke, the entire financial system is going to collapse.

Have you read Moonlight Mile yet?

no, I don't buy hardbacks and I am like 200 on the waiting list at the library. But I will.

I always read mr lehane's book. Like robert crais too, which I find as similar to lehane in themese and style, although lehane is a far superior at the plot twists.

I would've left her with Morgan Freeman.

if you read the series of books, you would realize they had a really bad relationship that wasn't meant to last. Not surprising at all.

I highly recommend all of dennis lehane's books. they are excellent.

can you imagine the amount of local ads that google can get themselves into? grand slam acquisition IMO.

Yes, but the sales model is going to be interesting. Small businesses aren't usually tech savvy, Groupon might help with that b.c they obviously have a sales model that reaches very small businesses just based on what cross my email with denver groupons.

The meantime between failures and bailouts of the eurozone is going to decrease until it all comes tumbling down.

Auerbach did a great piece today about germany and their banks.

what time is the cotton kick off? If its after 9am or whatever the cap1 is at, I will take it.

you can buy a tv online and then find someone local to install it, that is what my parents did. they were very pleased but end spending way too much on the install (like $600). It looks absolutely great and is an amazing layout for a tv but I couldn't believe they spent that much to have their tv and surround installed

Ah see, that's not an issue for me because I'm hyper-connected. This girl took some pictures a few weeks back where I am clearly Lil-Jon-Outta-Your-Mind hammered. Facebook to email, email to the phone, phone always in hand. They were probably up for no more than 3 minutes before I got her to take them down.

me too BUT, I also travel for work, take vacations, etc. And some of my friends have no taste. Its enough of a recipe for disaster that I keep my boss from seeing my wall. :lol:
