Cut open an unplugged three prog extension cord, exposing the three wires inside.
Cut open Dell power cord, exposing the two wires inside.
Position pieces of heat-shrink tube over the stripped inner wires to be joined.

Connect neg. wire to neg. wire and solder.
Connect the third ground wire to the exterior casing of the laptop with tape as to be removable.
Cover over the sealed three wires with heat shrink or electrical tape for asthetics.

Hope you never need a warranty repair.

Drug tests are an indirect measure of productivity, using the assumption that "drugs == bad worker". I disagree with that logic, and think that drug tests should only be administered if the worker's performance is clearly impacted. If there's no performance impact, then what the hell does the company care what I do outside work? (I know that's not the attitude many companies have, but it's the attitude I have.) In most cases, drug testing is done at the behest of the Company's worker's comp. insurance carrier - and has nothing to do with performance, productivity, or whether or not the drug is illegal. It's done because study after study after study conducted by everone but my Great Aunt Matilda shows that employees who use drugs are more likely to have an accident at work - and are also more likely to steal or embezel.
Drug testing == lower workers comp. premiums and lower general liability premiums.
Think about it - say you're in charge of hiring at The Rainy Kingdom. Every year, you hire x employees - each of whom you send for a whiz quiz at a rough cost of $75.00 ea. (This is the last number I can remember hearing for a standard screen done by a lab, and really be considered SWAG - the super kung-fu screen that picks up things like vicodan or codine costs, well, way more.)
x * $75.00 = lots of dough for someone who does alot of hiring. The data on whether casual drug use - smoking a little hippie lettuce on the weekends say - has any effect on productivity out side of accidents is, at best, non-conclusive.
So the question you want to ask is would Bill's Minions be spending that kind of cash without a real, tangible benefit?
The twins are 8 months now, and it's a different world. One in which they go sleep at 7pm and sleep calmly until 6am.
Muhahahahahahaha....
Just wait...
Mini-me #2 did that for a while, then at about 14 months old, he figured out how to climb out of the crib. Or, more accurately, he learned to scale up to the top rail and fall out of the crib, with a most impressive thud, followed by much howling and screaming.
But, you're not really a parent until that oh so special bundle of love and fuzziness hits you in the head with a sippy cup that you'd swear was thrown by Randy Johnson, then giggles like hell and says 'Daddy Funny.'

My current plan is to hit Powerball tomorrow. But I may decide to buy a cup of Hot Chocolate instead once I get to the C-Store.
The fee would be through the roof because of the postage.
