We have 2nd Christmas Day (literal translation) on the 26th.

I remember there was a MASH episode that best explained Boxing Day...

Here it is: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0638236/ (information on episode only [&o])

If you need a book to deal with a graphing calculator, you can probably do with a regular one [&:]

I had to use a TI-83 years ago for a math class.

The manual wasn't user friendly - written by math geeks for math geeks - and there was even a college class offered to learn how to use it [:@]

The books are probably for people who want to use more than 10% of their calculator

What?!?

Nine-year-old Jordan Taylor shouldn't be alive. The Hillsboro, Texas, boy suffered an "orthopedic decapitation" during a car accident three months ago. But after a doctor reattached his head to his neck with titanium rods, the kid appears to have recovered nicely.

i remember seeing something about that on Medical Incredible about ooh, 2 years ago, a kid was "medically decapated" aka, his head would have rolled away from his body, but thanks to first responders he lived!!! (he is on a ventilator.... but surviving, WOW) haha, why can't tower just say"price pending" [:'(]

hunh, im saying it from experence, flying behind your back is really really bad (ok, if your a super pro...) just keep the tail to you and its easy, left is left, nose fowards move the "stick" to the low side (works for planes/heli's) once you get that down, its alooot easier[8D]

Which simulator?

I had a hard time with the Great Planes v4 demo because it was keyboard only - I'm not a gamer.

Practice would have solved that problem

If you are used to using a keyboard for controls, then get the GP demo.

I could never get into computer games since they all used the keyboard - I can barely type with 2 fingers on each hand.

How are you getting along with the cube?

Speaking of cubes, my replacement stickers for my 4x4 & 5x5 have arrived from http://cubesmith.com

They don't make them like they used to anymore [:@]

Honestly I never got to it that night, I was planning on it during lunchbreak today. Should be a good time killer since I am stuck in work and everyone else took this week off for vacation.
