Nerd herd.

I receieved weekly calls from Benny Hinn ministries, telling me of "nearby" revivals (often in PA) on my cell phone.

Very annoying! I am on the DNC list, but figure they might just be trying random 212 numbers.

Had dinner at an amazing Malaysian restaurant near the bridge that connects to Star City.

ETA: oops, had no idea that was a restaurant "the Quay". No, never ate there (obviously).

Perhaps it's the LDS crew of the JW posse. When it's too hot to go door to door they retreat to air conditioned call centers.

That sounds like a good plan!

BTW, was just on CO.Com and under the News and Offers they have another CC promotion for 100 miles.

Here is the link Code is 57069

I have signed up for the previous ones and this didnt get kicked back for me.

To date I have only had 100 of those miles post. At least I think they were from that promotion. They posted as "Global Points Exchange Deposits." Has anyone else received more than 100? I thought the first round of those was supposed to net 300 total.

[QUOTE=AMF in NJ;12178881]+:-: I spent my dozen years here in central Jersey and if anything it's been an even mix of pork roll and taylor ham. :-:




Apropos link. :-: Really neat to read through. Sounds like a great place to work.

In Middlesex County I see both Taylor Ham and Pork Roll on diner menus. Wouldn't eat either! Sounds disgusting and I dread to think of what mechanically retrieved "meat" is in there!



I liked the Netflix slide that talked about not needing a dress policy - as no one has ever come to work naked! Laughed out loud at that one.

Not eaten there myself, but have heard mixed reports. It does have a great view over the harbor though.

The key is to try not to have any :rolleyes: reporting to you. If you do have :rolleyes: then get rid of said :rolleyes:.

Yeah I know, easier said than d:rolleyes:ne.
