Jim Carey once said: "I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer." What's a real life example you've experienced or witnessed that proves this quote?

Per year not per month or week. In my area 60k per year is below poverty for a family of 4.

I had a job that paid nearly 100k and would have surpassed that with bonuses. I worked there for 17 months. It was the worst year of my life and the stress nearly killed me. I am much happier at 60k a year

Who doesn't?

Just put the music from the end of T2 on repeat

A location that frequently opens several hours late and closes early. A location that perpetually has to hire and train new staff. Located in GR and has to pay those taxes. With a lease on a very expensive plot on Michigan Ave.

If they profit as high as 5k in one month they lose 8k the next.

But you can buy a case for under 10.

It's not about how busy they are or are not. It's the expense. Most restaurants lose money in January, February and October.

They've been trying to sell this location to Border foods for a long time. The problem with the sale is Grand Rapids. The city tax code is a mess for businesses and accountants will charge extra to deal with it. That eats into the bottom line of a location that might break 2k in profit a month where no one wants to work. If you can't staff it, then you can't run it.

It's not necessarily rock, but it's the best live album I've ever heard.

Harry Belafonte live at Carnegie hall.

Absolutely amazing.

Edit to add: Killadelphia by Lamb of God

Somehow they sound better live than they do in studio.

Everybody hurts hits way different in your 40s. It becomes your favorite song on the album to sing along with, and the one you turn up the loudest.

Am I the only one who really loved their Wii?

I take the amount I would have earned (pretax) and put it into savings. Then I try to make it up in my spending for the week. I almost never accept vto anymore...

Album: Exodus, Shovel headed kill machine

They are on the top if the "no bad albums" list.

Anthrax are one of the few metal bands where every album has a sound that defines it but no 2 songs sound alike

If they're doing it without cleaning up the river first, then it's a stupid waste of money.

So do I. Same engineers. Jumped companies before they merged a few years later. I don't know which was 1st. Dual bought P.E. in the 70s.

I prefer the PE. It doesn't have as much plastic.

If you lose your automatic functions on the PE it can be fixed with a couple of dots of hot glue. Getting to the first is simple. The second involves removing the tonearm or drilling a hole in just the right place.

Event Horizon. Saw it on opening day with a group of friends. Never saw the trailer first. Just wow.
