it kinda sucks when your car crumples like styrofoam after a minor accident. true story: I was driving an old ford, he was driving a camaro (or something like that)... we had a head on collision.
after we cleared the scene... I had a bit of red paint on the grill about maybe an inch long. His car was smashed, bleeding fluids, a tire at an awkward angle, etc...
no one was hurt, but he was stranded for a little while...
Since the opportunity has arrived to bash Radio Shack, I will offer my two cents. I don't really feel the need to bash the shack but its hey day has come and gone. I'm still a little bit disappointed that Radio Shack never sold the Commodore 64.
The case of what has happened to Radio Shack might be kind of sad. I really don't see it making a comeback. I won't say that I will never return but why should I? This point has been beaten to death by previous posts and "other options" are killing the need for a Radio Shack to even exist. I used to really like Radio Shack, but then they offered this box called the TRS-80 instead of the Commodore 64... and the shack has been going down hill ever since.
Remember that you are going to die eventually and that you can not escape the consequences of what you have already done. So be careful and hold your own self accountable before you're underneath the earth!!! Be responsible!

a huge ramp.
but do college professors ever come out and say "hey kid, you're not an 'infinite well of potential... you should go bag groceries'"?

better is relative and freedom is vague when used without a context...
Indeed. Thanks for reminding me about Gyromite... I feel much better now!
Well, without technology, I'd be unemployed... You'd also be naked, eating raw food and need a haircut.
These things may help to improve workflow:
- Use laptop, without network connection, so you can find a quiet and comfortable place.
I think learning to deal with network connectivity in uncomfortable places is more rewarding in the long run.
- If you listen to music, make sure it's pleasant
Music is a total distraction, pleasant or otherwise...
-Think about room's lightning and improve it if necessary
Lighting? Thank God I work during the day...
- There's on/off button on your cellphone
True, you can also abandon it in a nearby location.
- Noisy computer distracts your mind.
Noisy anything can distract the mind.
-Keep only tabs related to your work open in your browser.
This is related to being in a place without a network connection. It all depends on your ability to manage your connectivity experience.
-Human mind takes ~15 minutes to concentrate on a subject, so that's a good minimum running time of a process.
Biological variability is real.
-Meditation and yoga can help on concentration.
Yoga is for dhalsim...
Do accomplishments require busy-ness or can we accomplish a whole lot pretending to be busy?
print the article out, give it to my employer and leave at 2:30 today. Or maybe I should reconsider...
The whole idea of an average worker is shot, riddled like swiss cheese.

PCs are unusable under 500mhz nowadays...
I still get a lot of use out of a PII 300mhz machine... I guess it is all about what you are trying to do with it.
all that gets is a 5?

There is more than one way to get things done.
Heaven and Hell are real...
