Here are some more anecdotes from a recent article: http://laist.com/2016/08/29/so_just_how_do_las_legions_of_ca... I also live car-free in Los Angeles. It is not that I don't want a car, I have just bee

That was my first response to the article as well. However, I do not put blame on the airline since his condition could not have been noticeable upon boarding. I would assume they would have done something about a noticeably sick passenger

Reminds my of Robert Benigni's scene in Jarmusch's Night on Earth. Another amazing comedic actor. Notice how few cuts there are. As a fluent Italian speaker, the subtitles do not do it justice. Content is identical and very NSFW.

Do not let yourself be defined by your job. Even though you spend most of your waking hours at work, you are still more than that job. Any job. Even if you are the weakest link at work (someone has to be), you are still more than that. Seek

Considering they are forcing the team to move to SF, there is no way Instapaper will exist in one year.

There is no way I can get by with only two bottles of water. I live in Southern California and I primarily do long climbs. The biggest climbs right near me are only (Strava) Cat 2, but I like to head out for climbs on Cat HCs. No stores on

How much do you have to carry during your rides? Never used tablets, but I should look into them.

I live in SoCal, so I also have to avoid bars that might melt. Chewy granola bars do not handle well, but cereal bars do. Looking at my pantry, Trader Joe fig bars have 27 grams of carbs, but only 2g of protein. Honey Stinger waffles have t

As a cyclist that loves to do long solo rides, I often look for nutrient dense foods that are easy to carry. Thirty grams of carbohydrates is better than most energy gels and snacks. $2 per bar is a tad steep considering my normal costs. I

The US federal government only has the authority to grant holidays to federal employees. Employers are under no obligation to grant those holidays to their employees. How many have Columbus or Veterans day off? Both MLK and Presidents Day?

Jersey St? I love that street. Very picturesque. So many photo shoots and movies filmed there (like the intro to Jarmusch's Permanent Vacation). The front in 1980 https://youtu.be/eAc59a90PBc?t=157

But sometimes, that do not realize what your stuff is. When I pass, will someone recognize that my VU/Warhol Banana poster is actually autographed by Lou Reed? Will they identify the Scotty Moore and Johnny Ramone autographs? The uniqu

Sometimes those zombie resumes are hard to delete. Even with the advent of LinkedIn, recruiters will still use knowingly outdated information. I guess it is just a numbers game for recruiters. http://blog.brusic.com/2012&#x2

I find it ironic considering the majority of clickbait articles that I encounter on Facebook are the sponsored posts. If FB was serious about clickbait, they should simply not accept money from such sites.

Almost every time that something is subsidized, it will go up in price. A person's marginal propensity to consume means that if a deduction leads to money being saved, that money will actually be put toward the same product. But instea

Honestly, after spending a bit of time in Africa, they really do not need more unskilled volunteers, but money to employ locals to do the same job. Locals should be educated and then go on ahead to teach the next generation. I did meet seve

In Vietnam, outside of the populated areas, there are no menus, so I might have eaten dog once or twice while in the extreme north.
