The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

DShai was talking to his boss and his boss said that between him and his wife they make over 150K a year and they live paycheck to paycheck. (Putting no money into savings.) .

HS! That is insane.


Both that they make that kinda money and that it is spent.

And because me working will mean putting Kylee in daycare, I have to make enough to make it worth the expense. I am not gonna work to (after daycare expenses) make $5 an hour. I'd rather just stay home and maybe work part time at night when Klint is home.

If I don't get the state aid I have requested Dayday means I earn about 1 dollar a hour at the store.


Our total income (based on W2s) last year was between 55 and 57 thousand. For southern Vermont that is solid but Middleclass gets no to little help. I would be more secure going on Welfare. The state then pays for lodging, food, dayday and extras. It is insane and completely unfair.

I would write to my politicians but they have little care for southern Vermont. Chittenden County (Burlington area) is where 50% of the state lives and thus they get ALL the attention and coverage.

Even more unfair.

Geez girl. You're on at an odd time. Did you get anything done yesterday? That house isn't going to clean itself.

We used to all stay here until about 1-1:30 am actually.

I can't believe we have a thread about screaming and that I had something to add to it.

Ya know ... I think I may have figured out one possible source for Galeros' random quotes. I think he is repeating the subject lines of some of the SPAM mail he gets.

Whaddaya think?

If he was, then he'd be talking about Viagra, enlarged body parts and how to get lots of money by sending money to idiots in Nigeria.

The idiots are the ones that send the money.

Yeah. Someone gave us an older Dell workstation with dual p3 500mhz chips last year. The thing had quite a hard time in Win2k. Win XP was near impossible. :\ So - we wiped low-level formatted the hard drive and the gave the machine to the Salvation Army. I hope someone gets good use out of it!

Oh, my dual 440mhz runs WinXP just fine. Then again, it has a pretty decent video card on it, so that probably makes a big difference.

And probably a decent hunk of RAM for XP to gobble up.

128MB I think?

Hmm ... well, I am glad you are able to get it work for you. Heh. Next thing you'll tell me is that you are getting Oblivion to work seamlessly on it!

Ah well. No big deal.

How are you all doing today folks?
