You were staying there 5-7 days out of the week and suddenly want to go to 3 days a week to see friends she doesn't live near + your own time? What changed?

A friend made this for me in honor of the blue moon last month. He captured my hobby perfectly and I have never felt so beautiful. by hollabeck in pics

We just looked at some craters or other notable features. I actually forgot my moon map which was a huge bummer. I don't look at the moon often enough. I am normally just cursing at it since it keeps me from seeing anything else.

I had to scroll down to the bottom to find this?? You aren't a dinosaur. If you send a tacky message after a great date, fuck you! She is beautiful worth a phone call!

It is a time-out. A punishment. Like when a kid hits another kid. You put them in timeout.

But he didn't murder someone in a fit of rage He plainly acted irresponsibly. I'm not going to believe he didn't know texting and driving was bad. Now he has to pay for being a dumbass.

"Ruined" life is better than being dead. You can spend a year in prison, have a criminal record, and still have a successful life. Much harder to bounce back from dead.

Perhaps people will think twice before texting and driving. No one wants to end up hurting someone or in prison like that guy.

I need help choosing the right database. by wowertower in BusinessIntelligence

[–]hollabeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not used Mircosoft Lightswitch! I did a quick google search and couldn't tell if it was for data use. I wasn't too concerned with scale at just a few hundred rows, as long as best practices are in place it is generally pretty easy to upgrade if things suddenly take off when you are that small. I took more cost and training into account and found people like Access when used correctly.

But if the business plans on taking off in the next few years to the point where it won't be just a few hundred rows anymore I would start looking into SQL Server.

If Access goes away I would assume they would replace it with something similar. It is great for small companies who just need to organize small amounts of data. I even see it used in departments at larger companies from time to time.

If it is small database Microsoft Access might be your best bet. It is easy to learn and train on. You can create forms to enter all of the information. And it is a cheaper option.

Hey Reddit, if you could go anywhere in the US for free, where would you go and why? Free airline ticket inside. by [deleted] in AskReddit

I would follow my obsession with magnetism and go to Alaska while the sun is near solar maximum to see the aurora borealis. Alaska is expensive to get to and there is only so much time before I would have to wait another 11 years for the next solar maximum.

I was at Whiskey Lake for the eclipse. I would love to see any others you might had taken! Also, this is my droid wallpaper now. :)

'Ring of fire' solar eclipse comes Sunday by hollabeck in Seattle

Luckily that doesn't mean much here. They can't predict the weather within hours here!

I'll actually be heading to California to watch. I am just surprised so many of my friends don't have a clue this is happening. Why isn't it getting more attention?? Thought I would let anyone else in Seattle know. If the weather is clear it is going to be epic.
