    You can peel it with a spoon ,which is nice no sharp edges ,then slice it thin ,or shred it ,or dice it up really small ,or crush medium slices ,and add it to your foods ,I love it in my fish soups ,on chicken ,in stir fries ,but I am lazy and buy prepared ginger by Spice World ,that I get at Walmart or Amazon

    Complaint: I keep having nightmares about wanting to go back to college. While they're not scary dreams per se, I usually experience an overwhelming feeling of depression and despair that can linger after I wake up. I want them to stop.

    i didnt buy pot roast meat but i got a nice sirloin piece,
    no wishersheer sauce to cook it in. no jack daniels, not much in  options.
    plain pepper?
     

    Brush with butter or olive oil, then sprinkle with anything, such as a bit of salt, pepper, paprika, or any kind of dry rub you might have in the spice rack.  Cook.  Eat.  Feel wealthy and blessed.  Fall asleep on the couch.  Now you ARE wealthy and blessed!  Wake up at 2 am and drag yourself to bed.  Or just roll over.  After all, it's YOUR couch!

    ....I keep having nightmares that I'm still at the company I lat worked for.  The owner/CEO was a real tyrant.

    Once in a while I have frustrating dreams of being back working at the Kennedy Space Center (~50 years ago) and having gone to another building at the Space Center a couple miles away then not being able to find my way back.  Or being outside my building during lunch and not being able to find my way back into the building or back to the right floor.  Or being on the right floor and not being able to find my way to my desk through the maze of corridors and desks.  Which is totally ridiculous because in reality I could see my building complex i.e. the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) & Launch Control Center(LCC),  from at least 10 miles away because of the HUGE VAB sitting in the middle of otherwise empty swamp land.  There was only one road that went to the VAB/LCC complex.  There was only one door on the front of the LCC building, there were only three floors in the LCC building, there was only one corridor around the edge of the LCC building on each floor. The LCC is a long rectangle.  My lab was in one of the corners and occupied 1/4 of the short leg, and about 1/8 of the long leg.   I was the only desk in the computer room half, and the other half was occupied by rows of racks of analog tape data recorders and two desks for the two techs who kept them running. frown  Paraniod I be?

    Non-complaint:  I got a ride with a friend yesterday.  I had to go to the UPS store to return a computer sound card that didn't work.  Amazon is amazing at easy returns.yes  I was literally in the UPS store for 1 minute and only that long because I stopped on the way out for 30 seconds to check out what they had for sale in their little packaging materials rack.

    We both had several things on our to-do list while up town in the "big" city.  Then I treated us both to lunch at Applebee's.  Wheee, another mini-adventure.smiley

    Complaint?:  It's snowing again and up to a foot is expected by Saturday.  Not that that's unusual in mid-January here.  But the ground has been bare here for about a week.  Now, THAT's unusual.surprise

    I briefly worked at a small startup where the CEO stood up in front of an all-hands meeting and literally said he could easily export all our jobs to ______, so we better work harder. I don't have nightmares about that. I was actually relieved when they fired me. The most common nightmare I have is, I'm in the race car, but I'm late for grid, or I'm somewhere I'm not supposed to be and I don't know how to get back to the track.

    I used to work at a place called Winn Dixie.  I still have dreams that I work at a pop lace similar to there, even though I work at fast food now.

    talking about work, it is fast approaching time to clock in.

    how come there are no FPS games that allow you to use one of those old tyme strong man circus hammers?

    You’re not “shooting” a chainsaw in Doom, or a knife in Wolfenstein, or karate chops in Goldeneye, and yet there they are.

    I thought FPS meant Frames Per Second?

    ..yeah, sounds like my company's owner/CEO.  He actually referred to our last president as "that Arab guy".

    ..'plaint.

    Again someone's little yap dog is barking and yowling late at night.  A couple nights ago it kept up until 02:30.  When I went down to the office the next day, I was told to call security. The interesting thing, we have no security staff. 

    I really have a serious issue with "support animals" and how the concept is so terribly abused. 

    Maybe I should get a python and say it's an "emotional support animal".  Would at least guarantee me a full seat on the bus.

    Ugh, I have those too. Sometimes I'm even in elementary school, because my whole generation's been sent back there on account of us being such immature adults, and something about it being "these days" that I never really get an explaination to.

    I miss just about everything except the exams. Once upon a time I was my family's second-ever college student, and I hoped and believed I was going somewhere in life. I had hopes, dreams and a feeling that my life had purpose. College was supposed to be just the start of "a life-time of learning" as their motto said. But instead I worked a long, sad line of jobs with no prospects and kept getting sick in weird ways. Then I was diagnosed with a jerk-ass neurological disability that can't be treated, and got retired as a freeloading pest at the age of 37. Basically I feel pretty terrible about that, and I miss being someone who was seen as having potential, so much that I could scream. But at the same time I wish I hadn't gone to college in the first place.

    I'm sorry about this post.

    i feel sad my fall back job no longer exist.
    thru my 20's and 30's i worked nights doing data entry / key punching. 
    it was an easy way to double my income when i needed it
    the publisher'a clearing house. cabbagee patch bday cards
    data entry is gonnnne 

    i dont understand how people today manage.
    i'm one person, my grocery bill is about 150 a week.
    the grossly obscene deductible on family health care.
    my co workers with fammilies paying 7k  
    like daffy says disspicable.

    i don't know how they manage.

    What are you buying that ramps the price up so high? I'm not judging, just curious. My weekly grocery haul averages at about 60 bucks, and that's in one of the most high-cost countries in the world (Norway) with me pretty much always getting stuff I don't technically need.

    Hhmmmmm just my personal opinion but everybody has potential ,whether they find it or not is something else , but it's always there , maybe it's just a matter of re adjusting the hopes and dreams to fit reality .....don't give them up ,adjust them or change them  .....
