- jenks on ih8gates’s “New year, new laptop?” What about the 13" macbooks? They're pretty tiny... I apparently need one for work pronto too though. Am curently trying to make a database in WORD, b/c the computers I have access too don't have excel. WTF kind of office is that?! So I'm …
- carolinian on ih8gates’s “New year, new laptop?” Your experiences bear a striking resemblance to the UHF "Wheel of Fish" sketch. I'm in the same boat with the macbook issues. I was really hoping for a 12" pro sub-notebook to be debuted at Macworld, as the other offerings are not quite as…
- jenks on ih8gates’s “Chicken Helper” When my parents decided to clean out our "pantry" from top to bottom, they found amongst the many random jams etc, a tube of marzipan with a date of 1977 on it. Sad in itself- but even worse is that that date means that tube of marzipan ha…
- ih8gates on ih8gates’s “One for the Rolodex” I lived in Asheboro NC, which is west of the Raleigh and Durham area, about 20 miles south of Greensboro. It's a much more rural setting, which probably factored heavily in my experiences. Thought they might have named it for Triple K, the…
- enknot on ih8gates’s “One for the Rolodex” OMFG! That's a real street. I should stop being shocked at this kind of thing. Makes me seem like one of those weirdos I make fun of from sheltered homes where you never have/get to experince anything and don't know that there are other ki…
- chicoschica on ih8gates’s “One for the Rolodex” Hello and welcome! Your post and Paul's just remind me how frustrating and unbelieveable life in the South still is... You know, when chico got job offers from Georgia tech and Canisius, one of the major motivating factors for us was not l…
- carolinian on ih8gates’s “One for the Rolodex” Welcome to e:strip from a fellow North Carolinian. I'm originally from Durham, later moved to Raleigh for school. Where in NC did you come from?

- paul on ih8gates’s “One for the Rolodex” Welcome to the site. When I lived in South Carolina for my first year of college I was surprised at how the black people sat in a separate part of the cafeteria. I remember I had this friend Teresa from Chemistry and when I sat with her on…

- zobar on ih8gates’s “One for the Rolodex” On the other hand, as Chris Rock says: 'It doesn't matter where you are in America - If your friend calls you and tells you he's lost on Martin Luther King Boulevard and they want to know what they should do, the best response is 'Run!'' W…

- ih8gates on vycious’s “my funny anti-valentine” My girlfriend decided to take Valentine's one step further. She invented a Valentine's derivative that she calls "Vhanukkah." The only difference from the original contrived celebration is that Vhanukkah involves 3 days of romantic-gift gi…
- ih8gates on mk’s “jet blue” Just try to avoid betting on any arrival and departure times with fellow travellers.
- ih8gates on zobar’s “productivity is down” I like the idea of bringing in an independent consultant. Especially if it's an efficiency consultant, who will best serve by distracting the management so the rest of us can get some work done.
- ih8gates on carolinian’s “Loveless, Internetless, but Alive” The frequent ice storms in NC were pretty devastating. I'll take an average Nor'easter over that any day. I did get a strange feeling as I walked out of the gas station with a loaf of bread and gallon of milk earlier in the week. I don't u…
