Me too. Unfortunately, I don't believe any of them pay particularly well.

She put the coffee between her legs and it spilled, giving her the burns and injuries because the coffee was too hot.

She wasn't exactly innocent in this because she did spill the coffee. I think the jury put it at 30% her fault and 70% on McDonalds. The main reason she got such a large sum initially was to send a message to McDonalds and other corporations.

Wasn't that one of those 1 hour news program things? Think I flipped past it that night...

Also was supposed to get a package today, but they lost it -_-;

I hate the fact that no one seems to know what they're doing, what is/isn't for sale, and that they've (many, not all) perfected the art of the blank retail stare. Anyhow, I went there to pick up my Thor FF, which I had reserved in person yesterday. I was told it would be in today. So, I go to pick it up today, and am told that it isn't in. I am also told by the person I'm speaking to that he's ignorant of the procedures, as someone else usually runs game stuff/ordering (of COURSE).

Now, normally, I'd figure that there was a shipping issue and that's that. However, looking behind the counter, I see three unopened boxes sitting there that weren't there yesterday, all about the size and shape of the boxes that FF packs come in. Now I could have brought this to the dude's attention, but I'm frankly tired of having to do people's thinking for them. So I walked out, and plan to hit up a store near my house which tends to sell things cheaper than the store in question.

Ugh. Just insane how inept the staff at this place is. VERY close to boycotting it altogether and just waiting for my funnybooks until work's out.

Pretty much why I don't buy anything from the venue where we play clix (other than sealed buy-ins). They've always treated the clix players like garbage but, unfortunately, they are usually the only place to get prizes. This time around the idiots didn't even ORDER Captain America...they "forgot". They finally got an order in but the stuff won't arrive until later and no word on whether prizes will be with it.

If they don't get prizes in, that will be a drag but I can always get those via trading (just rather play for them). Just glad I stopped relying on them for my clix for some time now!

As for prizes, I've taken to ordering full sets if I can. Takes the pressure off of a game I try to use as a stress reliever.

It was actually a documentary called Hot Coffee. Not bad and pretty informative.

It's like Michael Jordan going to the YMCA to play basketball.

The U.S. team is just about to hit the pitch. It would be nice to get another shutout, but regardless of outcome, they're onto the next round.

I had good luck combining GF Kilowog, Sgt. Rock and Checkmate Black Knights. I wouldn't be surprised if someone did put together an unstoppable force based on the Soldier keyword, that it would have some of those pieces on it.

Yes, if you collect unemployment and then you work at a comic shop, you will undoubtedly get more money.

That's just simple additions isn't it?

SLVR,

I have found a crazier Boston than mine, though it is hard to top the video of my dog that you captured. Not sure if you can post it though.

Unemployment is based off your previous job's pay rate, so if your previous job was a low paying job, than a comic shop can't be any worse.
