Loved this - worked a treat! The most difficult part was working out how to create a simple text file! :D
Thanks!

Hi, Any idea where the photos in the two pictures on this article were taken?

Shakespeare didn't have a 'vision', he had universal themes. That's why the plays can be re-done over and over for hundreds of years with other interpretations. Whoever directs needs to bring their own vision.

I liked your blue-collar self! Any other collar Martin would not be hanging out in the crawlspaces! ;D

I know, right? But once heard you can't un-hear something, unfortunately.

Ironically, the best Korean BBQ I ever had was in Beijing - go figure.

I think China redefined High Density Living. If I can get to work without anyone touching me, it's a miracle.

The thing is, there is always going to be a *new* model. Like, right now I am considering buying a new Macbook Pro. But the truth is, my current one would be just as good after a clean up. And new ones are due in 2012.

So do I wait? Do I buy?

I should wait. But I REALLY want one... I am torn and it's driving me crazy.

sigh.

It still could be. But the Marvel movies are getting better. The trailer looks promising.

Haha... my other friend who is into comics refuses to watch any of the movies. But I dunno.... hope springs eternal.

I hope they don't camp it up. I really like the message of Will versus Fear. I think it's relevant for the world today. The movie would do well to empower a new generation of fans.

Hope.

I think it's also because I have been working for the same company for so long. It's become a part of who I am now. Which is dangerous.

This sounds like something i should be reading. I'm a trade reader though, so it will be while.

When I start noticing a pattern to the stories i get really demotivated to keep reading. it will be interesting to see if this starts to be more gripping than just a bad-guy-of-the-day kind of series.

I love your description of the faces like they're having an allergic reaction! That is gold.

I think a beverage is called for, but anything else should get you bonus points.

Not "forced" as I volunteered; making a choice that would strategically give me more opportunity to grow personally, put something cool on my resume, and buy me 2 more years at least... hopefully enough time to publish my book and retire into the life of a professional writer. (Dreams are fun.)

And I can understand how can affect you physically as well as mentally. The hard part is trying to find a way to live with the ambiguity. Easy to say, harder to do.

As for the best man thing, yeah, that's like Deadpool's swords; it's an honor to be asked to be the best man but it comes with the burden of having to arrange the bucks and give a speech. With your working hours time would be tough to come by, but it sounds like you're going to have to bite the bullet. If you're being pestered for time, then schedule something and that will at least shut them up for a while. :-)

And I hope you're pissing against the side of the bowl and not straight into the water, because you know that's a dead giveaway! LOL

I hope they are able to put Retina displays on the next-gen iPads for the same price points as the current models. I don't know if I am convinced about the 7" models, though.

And it's no bother. Hope everything works out.

Sorry to hear about the work stuff. We went through something similar a few months ago (which also resulted in me being shipped off to China). I found that being given a little bit of information and not knowing everything about what is happening/going to happen is what leads to frustration - the feeling of dreading the worst scenario, and feeling stuck.

I also learnt that worrying won't actually change anything. But different people deal with the situation differently...

As for the dishes, I would have told you to get a dishwasher. But if your issue is unpacking the dishwasher, then I'd say that's a pretty First World problem don't you think? Maybe Perspective-Man needs to pay you a visit? LOL

And the iPhone4 screen is awesome. I have an iPad, and its annoying me now because I can see the individual pixels on the iPad screen. It just looks cheap compared to the Retina display... so I would wait for the next iPad iteration for sure - plus they might stick in a FaceTime camera setup. Current version is the first release after all.
