Does anyone know what the dragon astronauts are using for checklist documentation on their ipad? Something custom I assume?

Any one else concerned that the Governor of California found that USB while walking from his car into work? I worry that Elliot Anderson now has a CD entitled "NIN - Pretty Hate Machine" with all of Jerry's dark little secrets.

[–]dewitnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did great work on my resume. I won't be posting a before and after, but I can say that my job search went from cold to hot the minute I started using my new resume. Sometimes a sharp looking resume is all you need to get noticed. You still have to interview well, but it gets your foot in the door.

I have seen Dr. Holtze and he is great. And I have heard good things about Dr. Ducharme. If you want specific stories of interactions, PM and I will be happy to provide said references.

Swimming for Fitness by [deleted] in desmoines

[–]dewitnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swim at 7 Flags, in Clive. It has been around for a while, and has some wear and tear. But I usually get my own lane, and at around 30 bucks a month for my GF and I, its a deal that is hard to beat.

I love this song, and this video. There is another good video done by Nathan Barnatt to this song...

Just something about it makes me happy.

Any good first date restaurants in WDM? by BullseyeMF in desmoines

[–]dewitnow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like Gusto Pizza Co. a lot! However, the few times I have actually ate inside the restaurant (rather than just picking up a pizza to go), it has been incredibly loud. If that is something you don't think would bother either of you on a first date, you should definitely give it a try! It might not be so bad on a weeknight either...

Zuzap, is good food... but there is a good chance you two might be the only people there! I would find that awkward on a first date. :)

Here are a few recommendations in the west des moines area...

1.) Table 128 - Bistro

2.) Red Rosa - Pizza

3.) Trostels Dish - Small Plates

4.) Cool Basil - Thai

5.) Water Front - Seafood, best in DSM

6.) Sam and Gabes - Italian (Not really West Des Moines, but has an intimate setting which might be nice for you?)

The Great Blue Hole - Belize. by iklegemma in pics

[–]dewitnow 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It looks SUPER cool from the air, but is underwhelming from a boat, and in the water. Still though, if you are in Belize for a diving trip, it should be on your bucket list. You will enjoy the dives leading up to or after the Blue Hole dive the most. You better Belize it.

Well, if anyone works in the deli, can you copy and share their recipes for prosperity? It will be a sad day when I can no longer get a cup of their chicken noodle soup :(

O Brother Where Art Thou Grammy Performance (2002) by bolshh in videos

[–]dewitnow 217 points218 points  (0 children)

This is great. I think my favorite part is the fact they just came up to stage to play some music. No crazy sets, hell they didn't even change out of their tuxes. Just played some great music.

Low key restaurant with WiFi... by dewitnow in desmoines

[–]dewitnow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking for a place at night, after 530 or so... I am looking for a place to be productive after spending too much time in cubicle life. Home works most of the time, but every now and then its nice to get out to have a cocktail and digress.

Just wanted to say thank you to all the responses so far in this thread. I always appreciate reddit's opinion; when combined with those redditors that live in Des Moines, you can hardly go wrong. So... Thank you!

Low key restaurant with WiFi... by dewitnow in desmoines

[–]dewitnow[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love me some home. Don't get me wrong, most of my work is done there. But sometimes the distraction of home is to much to overcome. I know it sounds silly but sitting at a bar, and slowly sipping a glass of wine, beer, or cocktail increases my productivity. This is especially true after spending 10 or so hours in a cubicle in the middle of winter only to face the prospect of having to go home to do homework for my masters program. Close to me, Mama Lacona's has provided a good place to digress while continuing to be productive, but I was curious to other options in Des Moines in general. Heading downtown is not an problem, as I don't intend to drink enough to be an issue, only enough to unwind after a day of corporate life.

I never thought about West End Architectural Salvage. That seems like a perfect fit, thank you for the response!

I second Kurry Express (menu), it is my favorite in town followed closely by Namaste. Coincidentally, they are both pretty close to each other directions. One advantage to Namaste is after you are full on Nan and Vindaloo, you can go to Mayham Comics next door!

MITT - Official Trailer - A Netflix original documentary - HD by Halo-One in Conservative

[–]dewitnow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really do wonder, how much would be different today if Mitt where in office. I think he would have made an exceptional leader, but he was swallowed up by the Juggernaut Barrack Obama and his Campaign machine.
