Its been a constant process, lasting over the last 12-13 years, I think.

I am in a discussion of biogas, sludge digestion, and wastewater treatment stages of solid settling. Trying so hard not to digress to my 12 year old self.

Update: Anyone who flares off their biogas without putting it to use is just throwing money down the drain. One city collects their biogas and powers a park lawnmower with it.

Man, my cows are a walking gold mine. Please tell me the speaker didn't miss the opportunity to say flushing money down the toilet, instead of throwing it down the drain.

I'm at the gym, and the news is on, talking something about Syrian refugees. Not sure what, because no sound and I'm not paying attention. But suddenly I noticed that they were interviewing Mo Elewenibi (not sure I spelled that right). I have no idea what Mo is up to or why he is talking about Syria and/or refugees, but I thought it was kind of cool.

My roomates and I would put it to use sometimes in college until once when Don Snow singed all his hair and it sort of unnerved us.

Smells pretty exciting, too!

I would hate it if "work for the dead" included proxy Boy Scouts. One eagle and two palms is more than enough.

Silver lining: Lots of park benches in the Mormon Corridor would make the world a better place.

Anyone want to join the 'Creepy Baby Cult' ?

So how would you feel if your company gets acquired and the benefits changes are 4 less vacation days but now you can accrue sick time?

It was presented as we arent losing anything, but id rather have more vacation time

You're getting screwed. I work for a company that made a couple of large acquisitions and benefits had to be streamlined. I lost 4 vacation days and have to work an additional two years to get them back; not to mention additional vacation days that would have been earned are gone. And we can no longer carry over any vacation. The only positive was vacation and sick time were combined into one bucket of paid time off so no more "calling in sick".

I'll have to be here 5 years to get back to within a day of what I had... Plus less time off around Christmas and no maternity or paternity... Kinda sucks
