I would like Rage Against the Machine more if they didn't have such terrible vocals and lyrics. The actual composition for their music is pretty well done. Someone awhile back took the instruments from "Bulls on Parade" but mixed it in with the vocals from "Stayin Alive" by the Bee Gees. Amazing how much better the song becomes.

^ Whoa! Much improved!

Hey Everybody, every square mile of the greater Seattle metro area has some kind of construction going on. But all this activity is slowly grinding to a halt as the concrete workers strike really takes hold.

Other trade unions are joining with the concrete workers and lately some parts of Seattle are sarting to look like a ghost town. There's new construction going quiet right outside my living room window. Nothing mothball's a construction project like a materials strike. 

And now areas north, and south, of the city are starting to feel the effects of the strike.

Would you guys pay to watch the new Uncharted film?

@Mr Magic

even outside of rotten tomatoes i didn't find it all too bad. i've been seeing that most people didn't like it because of the casting, and apparently some others didn't want to see a young nathan drake.

So I am going to give you all a lesson on why math and basic thought is important. Earlier today I ran out to the supermarket because my mom and dad wanted rotisserie chicken for dinner. I picked it up for them, stood in the only line that was open at my supermarket and paid with a $20 bill.

When I get back home I go through my change and realize something wasn't right. I remember the total at the store came up somewhere in the $11 range. But yet I had $13.65 in my pocket. I checked the receipt. The total was $11.35, the change due back was $8.65. But yet I had $13.65. A ten, three singles, two quarters, a dime and a nickel.

I figure it out pretty quickly: the cashier accidentally gave me the wrong amount back. She meant to give me a five, she accidentally gave me a ten instead. It happens when you are in a rush. I want to do the right thing so I decide to head back to the store. My mom on the way out tells me since I am going back to pick up a thing of butter.

I head back to the store. The cashier is busy so I decide to pick up the butter first and then get into line to give the ten dollars back to her. I eventually get to the front after picking up the butter. I explain to her what she did and that I was returning the ten to get a five back.

She tells me thank you for doing that. She takes the ten and puts it back in her drawer. She then proceeds to scan the butter and doesn't give my the five back. I figure she was just going to deduct the price from the five and give me back the remaining change.

Instead she tells me the price without giving me the five back.

I point out to her that I wanted to use the change I was originally owed to pay for it. It was somehwere in the $3.30 range. I didn't have enough cash on me to cover the butter and I forgot to bring my card with me.

She then says "Oh"and proceeds to punch-it in. She hands me back the new change. I had back home to eat dinner. When I get there I realized I had over $6.00 in change in my pocket. I didn't understand how. The three singles from the original batch of change I had left at home before going back out. I should have only had a buck and some coins leftover.

I then realized she had deducted the price of the butter from the ten I had returned to her despite me telling her she had given me the ten by mistake.

If you have any kids at home, tell them to stay in school.

Wow, if you go back there everyday you should be a millionaire by the end of next month.

Ya know, RaR, if you hadn't gone back to do the right thing, you would spend years wondering what might have been. Sometimes honesty leads to a calculator moment. Cue the Texas Instruments deal.

Wow RAR, that is... there are just no words for that. LOL
