For our resident Wii users, do you have an SD card installed and if so, how large?

I've put my sister's 8GB in for photo show, no problem.

I don't have a Wii but will note I picked up an 8GB for $19 at Staples in December.

Most are scum. First never pay them money or give them your social security number unless it's for a background check for someone you are interviewing with. One way to tell the good ones from the bad ones is the good ones will spend the time to talk to you on the phone, in a sense a first interview. They are retained by companies to find someone and they don't want the competitors to know they are searching or they don't have the ability to handle the flood of resumes. The crappy ones just want your resume to send to everyone.

Here in Houston there is no zoning. So... with the wind blowing the right way and the windows open, I am breathing in... the smell of fortune cookies!^ About 3 streets over and 2 streets up. I am hungry.

The wind was blowing the wrong way at work yesterday and I had to smell Burger King which got sucked into the HVAC system as it went into 100% outside air because of the nice weather.

I wish I could say that I had an update to make. Still waiting on word for Scott about who to contact within CO for permission to use EWR airport and plane for our photos.

I would like to do this the weekend of June 12, which is the date for the Footie Soccer EWR Mini-DO to watch USA beat England in the World Cup.

Please keep the date open or add it to your travel plans.

Thanks for the update.

Completely agreed. Head hunters are akin to travel agents that way. There are some great travel agents out there, and there are some really awful ones as well. Same thing applies to head hunters.

Terminal D for as long as I can remember. A is (for the time being) US land.

I've only worked with one, which was focused solely on my field, but from that experience - +1 to everything you said. No charge, specific personal attention at the beginning/middle/end of the process, etc.
