I'm in USA. Not a whole lot up until the very end. I tend to ignore it pretty well until it all gets close then obsession with it kicks in. I pretty much know election day is a productivity write off for me so I just don't worry a

Weird they don't show for me. I even went back and looked again. Still no watercolors. Using Safari and feeling stupid now.

Jeez man I think we all get it. You have a product you want to sell. Spamming is not the way to promote your email product.

I know of one theatre that has an adults only floor. Same movies and same start times as the general audience floor. No kids allowed, they have a bar, and people dress up to go there. I assume there are others doing the same.

Am I the only person who had to come here to the comments to even find out what this library does? The winjs page is just a bunch of buzzwords randomly strung together.

At first I thought the same. I went in to edit records, and I hit save. I checked again and it was working. I assumed there was just a delay of a minute or so and that clicking save was a coincidence. My domain is on v1 now and its still wo

I saw this once. It was quite a few years back, through my 8" dob in my front yard. I saw a flash and couldn't imagine what it could have been except an impact. After some research online that night I began to doubt myself, most people conc

Sadly stackoverflow has gotten to mean for anything but the most difficult questions, worded perfectly. They need to also be solved in the same paragraph to escape the wrath of stack.
