  1. Do you take American money? on Best Buy Has Man Arrested for Using $2 Bills · · Score: 1

    Try this sometime at Wal-Mart or any other store. Ask if they will take Hawaiian money? I got all the way up to management before I said that I would just pay with my CC. So I can see how playing a joke like that would really screw up there brain.

  2. Re:Not an IT stigma... on Young Women Encouraged to Go For IT · · Score: 1

    I remember when I was getting my certifications and all I was hearing from MS was, "when get your MCSE you will make 75-85K per year". Seven years later I am now making that. My first job was working with one MS server and two FreeBSD machines. You can guess which one I enjoy working with now (FreeBSD). So from this I can say that I take what MS says with a grain of salt and laugh to my self. By the way it impresses me when I see a smart women working in the IT arena.

  3. Re:Hrmm on Too Many Computers Hurt Learning · · Score: 1

    I have never thought about it that way. I know that I have terrible writing skills and I have found that reading has improved that skill. So making the short cuts spell out into words is a great idea. I know that some of my old co-workers have to get their kids to translate when I am chatting with them. A college teacher told me one time that the more advanced technology gets the more the masses get ignorant\lazy. Think about it how many of you pick up or click on a calculator to do simple math that you should be doing in your head.
