I mean, I guess it depends on what the truth is. Clearly the two of you have very different perspectives on what the underlying cause of depression or mental illness is. If your view is incorrect, it could also be equally irresponsible, cou

As a side note, the phone that I snagged during that promotion just barely arrived a week ago. And I ordered it at the end of November. I think you just ran into some unlucky timing, at least in regards to the delays in shipments that you e

Sounds like your phone was so delayed because of a huge black friday promotion they ran that put their pixel stock a month or more behind back orders. My experience with them, outside of this one massive underestimate of how many phones the

I just made the switch off recently. It actually is a lot more seamless than you'd expect. You can still snooze emails, and then "archive" (mark as done) everything that is taken care of/replied to/no longer needs y

Thanks for the insight. Good to know ranges and what goes into those rates. I think I'm liking the convenience of going through an agency at the moment, though if I get an itch for more money, nice to consider the freelance route.

If you go into business as a contractor, is there an easy target to pick for the contracts you'll go after? Known sources of contracts? Or do you typically branch out from opportunities you know of or learned about while in the industr

I definitely agree with this. I'm just exploring the concept because I have problems that occasionally limit how much I can work - and just playing around with cheaper living arrangements that also work with that. Though, if I can find

That's really cool and probably exactly what I was looking for. Sounds about as cheap as you can go. How expensive was it to get any utilities hooked up to your property, or was that already taken care of when you bought the land?

Where would you typically park them for an extended period of time? Is that what you mean with zoning problems? Do people usually try to hang out in a large parking lot for long enough? Or perhaps just get outside the city limit in what loo

Ya, no military service here, so I guess that option is out. I do like the look of what intrepid is offering, and will have to research them some more. Thanks for the links.

Oh, damn. That interface is almost exactly what I'm looking for, but unfortunately it looks like it's only for European airlines. Do you know if anything like that exists for American airlines?

I actually have experienced the same depression and listlessness you described, and I imagine a lot of it could be tied to the constant lack of choice and excessive amount of expectations that our current, mill-like educational system force
