QUOTE(The Critic @ Jul 1, 2005 -> 10:10 AM) While that is a slight overstatement, it sure did seem like the E! show focused on the women quite a bit. Absoultely skip Friday nights if you don't want to hear "what I'd do to you...." I hardly ever watched the E! show, so I won't miss it at all. I just started listening to him again on WCKG, but I won't follow him to satellite radio. The E! show definitely did. Today's was hysterical with that guy from Jackass (not Knoxville) and throwing darts at him. And then poor KC calling in.. they never ran the good interviews because that's not what guys wanted to see on TV. They did a pole once and the "Erica the Gymnist" episode won by a landslide. I'm following him to Sirus. Curious as to how he'll be with no limitations.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Jul 1, 2005 -> 10:04 AM) Is the show being renewed somewhere else? I haven't heard anything as of now. Maybe once they get to Sirus the Showtime thing will fall into place.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jul 1, 2005 -> 09:45 AM) I fully endorse this law/bill. Keep both hands on the wheel skippy. I do as well. It's not so hard to use the ear piece. Just put it in your ear when you get in the car.. or don't answer the phone.

Unreal.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 11:04 PM) Vince Vaughn will be throwing out the first pitch and singing the seventh inning stretch at Wrigley field some time in the next couple days. And he will do so because the film maker he is working for told him he will. And they sign the checks...

In going over the days again she didn't work the 4 days my sister was here for the wedding either so now it's 10 days she was paid for and not worked.. I'm not wanting to be a b**** here.. but come on.. what's fair is fair. I was hoping for a little you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours, but apparently that's not what's happening here. I feel uncomfortable because I am not one to be a tight wad with money.. especially since she does do a good job. But when you are overpaid in some instances isn't it kind of a slap in the face to your "employer" to be s***ty to them..? Like yesterday.. I got off a half day to goto the game.. there was a project that had to be done this morning so I came in early to finish it as the request of my boss. I guess I could have said no.. I start at 8.. but figure I'd get more bees with honey.. I guess I'm just a bit baffled by her note. And request to be paid early as well.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 04:18 PM) I didnt do that search, however just looked up underpants gnomes and found you. C'mon guys.. just ignore the BS.

Sox Win!!!

Holy crap.. only 90 pitches. Freddy

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 04:13 PM) White singles down the LF line for a 2B. Was Crede even close to it..???

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 04:10 PM) no, but he will be available for a decent price, ass clown. The irony..

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 03:54 PM) Yeah, I was going to wait until the $2 theatre, but it sounds really good, and there isn't much else out that I'm interested in seeing, soooooooo..... Bewitched and Herbie: Fully Loaded not interesting to ya..

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 04:03 PM) Herm is so damn sexy Man boobs ..

Yikes.. they were down 1-0 when I left for a meeting. Nice to hear the offense clicking today.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 03:35 PM) Ahh yes, punish him by taking him to a chick flick. LMAO!! That will show him. Soxy, initially you were going to wait till video.. did ribbie's review change your mind..? I was going to wait from what some of you said but I think we'll go now because of the positives we've heard about it.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:34 PM) A known commodity that is working is far better than the unknown. I'd give her the little extra and say establish the ground rules so this doesn't happen again. I had a similar situation with my housekeeper, who interestingly enough also was making $10 per day. Plus room and board. She already got paid for 6 days she did NOT work. No more. Yikes.. $10 a day for your housekeeper.. that's a lot here. Is that the norm there? By the way.. this isn't some young kid saving for college or a new outfit.. this is a 50 year old woman.

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 01:09 PM) haha Brady Anderson.. he had one season w/ 50 hrs and then next highest was 24.. cough-roids-cough..

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 01:39 PM) Do I get a transportation allowance and free pool usage? As long as you stop peeing in it.. you can use the pool. No travel allowance.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 01:29 PM) Isn't $10 per dog visit more then some trading companies in downtown Chicago are paying? LMAO.. Mike.. you want the job..?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 12:56 PM) I'd be telling her where she could stick it personally. :finger Nice short term selective memory. Yea.. that's the popular choice with Zooks... everyone else in the area is a couple bucks more.. but I'm shocked to see some of the really professional websites. Sally is insured and bonded.. but some of these walkers are big time businesses with 4 or 5 "employees". I think I'm going to bite the bullet and change though. I can't be stressing about this, and the dogs have to go out.

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 12:38 PM) $10 a day for walking a dog? Where the hell do I sign up? Tell me about it.. But she does a lot with them (walks them, plays with them, etc..), and it's a great help that she does it. Otherwise we'd have to drive home everyday.. which is 30 miles each way.. then stay for a while. I'd be taking 2+ hour lunches everyday.. that's not an option. And that is for 2 dogs so I think it's a pretty fair price.

Try to be nice to some people and they forget about it at the most convenient times for themselves... OK.. we have a dog walker. No big deal, $10 a day takes them for a walk, gives them fresh water, etc.. Usually this is just M-F but sometimes we need her on the weekend when my folks can't stop by and let them out. Soooo.. Yesterday we get home to a note asking us to pay her tomorrow if we are off on Monday... in her note she says "it's $110 (we pay her 2 weeks at a time) because I came by on Sunday for you..." So I respond.. "wait Sally... you did not take care of the dogs on 6/20 and 6/21 so that's -$20.." She just calls me and says.. "no.. you still have to pay me because YOU called me off.. not something I did." Now.. I would normally not have an issue with this.. but back in early May she had surgery and was off for 3 days so we had to drive all the way home at lunch and let them out ourselves for 3 days.. plus she was out sick for 2 days besides.. and we did NOT deduct any $$ from her. I did this because I want to have a good relationship with her in case we ever have an emergency and need her to go by on a late notice.. So much for that. Ugh.
