The best comedy on tv. I can see that many people would have a difficult time with it because it isn't full of rehashed nerd or fat jokes. Season 2 was genius. Both season finally paintball episodes were amazing.

This peice does a poor job of saying what type of people would get charged. The first place I saw this was I think in the Economist and the bank that they were writing about was going to charge a small % on account holders that had over 250,000 in cash between their accounts for longer than 1 month and would charge a larger % for those that had in excess of 1 million for longer than 1 week. I think this is a very good policy by the bank as long as they keep the minimun that high.

The people that such a policy will effect are the very same people being call "job-creators" by the gop and need to get larger tax breaks because they invest all this excess cash.

I know some bank have started charging for transactions that require a teller which is just really silly.

I remember reading about this. They said that most that they found were buried with no protection and had been there since the first gulf war. They believe that they were thinking that it was better to hide them rather than lossing them to bombings or air-to-air combat. Probably dozens more out there but if they were buried without protection they are most likely scrap at best now.

Quick review shows 3 errors on the chart. Mounds are Dark Chocolate, not milk. Almound Joys are Milk Chocolate not compound. Mr Goodbar are Milk Chocolate not compound. All 3 of those clearly state such on the packaging.

Wonder why the Terminator series was skipped. Terminator Salvation is not really part of the series. I know T3 was bad but the first two were great. Same can be said with the Alien series where you have Ripley in the first 3 and then a DNA spawned version in the 4th, though the 3rd one there was bad too.

The series/season thing is more of a definition thing. In the US series refers to a collection of seasons.

Think the lady with the cart/trolly issue has figured out that we got that one correct.

If I want something in alphabetical order would I not alphabetize the list? At least that is what the oed tells me. It is far better than the "ABC that" I have heard.

A deliverable is not a report.

This just sounds like another one of those silly items from somebody that doesn't know their US history or Constitutional law. The US Constitution superseeds the State Constitutions. Not only has this battle been fought in courts but it has also been fought with bullets (US Civil War).

"The accountants have convinced businesses to rely on Option 2 for too long."

No the accountants did not most likely it was the consumers and marketing.

When I was in high school I worked in a seasonal department. During the summers we sold this 36" round table and 4 chairs for $30. If you got a full summer out of those I would be shocked. For $10 more you could get the same size set but witha table and chairs that were far better. Yet for every 1 of the $40 set we sold we would set 10 of the $30.

I like Lutz but he has forgotten something. Accountants do not tell you what you need to do, they tell you what you did, Marketing or Finance generally tell you want to do.

"Then there's something fundamentally wrong with your business model, and you don't attract decent customers."

Really? I am looking over a parking lot, I see no Rolls or Maybach. I am 100% sure that the desk and chair I am use are not top of the line, since I have better at home and I didn't buy the best. I know the PC I am using is the base of the model range. In fact it would be a safe bet to say that nothing in the building I am in is the best there is for whatever it is.

If you asked an engineer to build you the best extension cord you would probably end up with something that was made of platinum wrapped in Gore-Tex and Kevlar (I have no idea but I have been told those 3 items would a better cord). Given the current cost of those 3 items a 6' cord would run you somewhere around $5000. If I was in the business of making extension cords and I was making the best my business would have failed prior to selling my first product.

I like Lutz but having engineers run everything just means nothing gets done. I have had the joy of watching an engineer end up in finance. I asked him what he thought after his first year, his answer was:
"I told everybody that things would be different when I was in finance, we wouldn't do things on the cheap, we wouldn't do things the accounting way, only best for everything. It wasn't till the 6th month that I realized I was agreeing with the accountants all the time because I realized that we cannot always do everything the best way because if we did we wouldn't be able to stay in business. Now there are times when we really do need to do things the engineering way but just not for most things."

I veiw it as a team, engineers come up with wonderful ideas and accountants tell them if those ideas can feed them. For example the $100,000 Zafirro Iridium razor is an engineers razor, only the best. The Gillette Fusion ProGlide is the accountant's, good enough to get the job done even if it needs upkeep from time to time, cheap enough to still allow you to eat and in the end vastly more cost effective.

One would have thought that maybe after daughter say 3 or 4 he might have said "you know I think that priest was full of bio waste".

Also being a male I may just be completly wrong in thinking that bathing would help in producing a male because I believe being clean, even after married, would give one more chances.
