Yeah, and also, isn't Trouble Man a dog?  If so this is another category: old-timey secret knowledge guy.  (I don't know why, but I always imagined Trouble Man as having a voice like Billy Bob Thorton did in sling blade.)

This is what I mean.  This is what bothers me.  Mostly because if dogs are on the level of thinking, knowing beings, then Frederick Dumplington the Third is... like... molesting Phillipe.

Also: Corgi.

"He got himself a job drivin' pizzas around (for delivery)" as opposed to just a nice Sunday drive I suppose. Or being Pizza the Hut's limo driver.

wait, so, what is the perk of LN's job? Does the boss normally take tips? I feel like that is the opposite of a tip.

I was afraid to click on LN's blog.  I assumed it would be more salacious. (Note: board spell check knows the word 'salacious' but not the word 'blog.')

But hey, isn't it February?

ROFL.  I've got to netflix that movie now.  Battlestar Galactica will have to wait!  Huh, spell check doesn't recognize "battlestar" or "galactica".  Or "spellcheck".

Beef distills Machiavelli down to two sentences: Holy mother of clams is worrying about being rude not the right way to step out into the world. The world is rude as shit and if you ain't adoptin' the party line then they are just gonna use every part of you but the squeal. 

A slow clap for Onstad.

Yeah, good Beef blog after two months of silence.

I actually got downsold at the Apple store, so I had to not buy a laptop and leave the store.  I was going to get a MacBook Pro and after talking with a "genius" there he said "You don't want a MacBook Pro.  You need a MacBook, and unless you want to pay a premium just for the colour, get the white one."

Seriously, I was so taken aback and not sure I trusted his words that I had to leave the store to drop back and punt and do more research.

Turns out the little smug fucker was right.  The MacBook is exactly the right size for me, and will do everything I need it to do.  Plus, I like the looks better than the Pro anyway. 

So the dude basically just saved me $700.

goddamn I want me a sweet little Macbook.

But that is basically ridiculous, because I have an almost-brand-new computer right now. I just didn't realize until I messed around with my friend's Macbook how awesome they are.

Damn, my dad totally wanted me to buy a Mac, too.

Well, you can basically make a MacBook as good as a macbook pro, unless you were getting an awesome macbook pro.  Plus, it might actually scratch less.

Having never delivered pizza myself I'm guessing that places pool normally pool tips, take a cut, or make some effort to record them for taxes

None of the places that Mrs. West or I have delivered for (or managed, in Mrs. West's case) have ever pool delivery driver tips, taken a cut or kept any record.  Chains represented include: Papa John's, Domino's, Pantera's, Godfathers and at least two independents.
