I agree, and the act of carrying a notepad around is not usually an issue for me anyway. I keep my work checklist at work and bring it home on days when I work remotely. I also keep checklists at home for non work stuff. Shopping lists are

You're being downvoted but my work with a state government frightened me. It was amazing how many contractors are building castles of crap and then protecting them so that they can make an exorbitant living off of the teat of the taxpa

Endurance - not extreme. Middle distance running covers sprint type runs up to 3 miles. 5k runs (3.12 miles) take about a half an hour to complete for someone who is averagely slow (no offense to anyone who runs 5ks in 30 minutes). That mea

That's one of the difficulties of commuting the I5 corridor. We're stuck between a huge body of water and a mountain range - there really aren't that many alternatives - and the ones that do exist are already heavily traffick

I've never been a big fan of Amazon OR Jeff Bezos' libertarian nightmare - but, seeing it framed like this, in terms of a private entity providing employment for so many people and for little profit makes me question my own belief

Sitting on I5 Northbound on the way to my tech job in Seattle I was rerouted to a smaller highway. As traffic flooded into the communities of the Kent Valley it dawned about on me that if it weren't for all the tech- and therefor tech
