I be doing the same thing (printing) but with a University. They offered me $4000 less per year to begin with but I called today to see if we can negotiate. Should hear back by lunch. Benefits would be great but not quite enough to make up for $4000.
Yeah, definitely try to up that. That can be hard with a university given they have limited budgets (NEED MO MONEY FOR THE ADMINS AND ATHLETIC DEPARTMENTS!)

Just sitting at home today, preparing for a colonoscopy tomorrow. I've got to be on a clear liquid diet all day and take laxatives that will make me shit all day long. Nice... My breakfast today: Water, one cup of apple juice, and one cup of chicken broth. Lunch will be the same thing, except maybe I'll throw in some gelatin. And for dinner, maybe I'll give myself a treat and have a popsicle. I can't wait until the laxatives kick in...

Did they at least schedule yours first thing in the morning? They gave me a 1 o clock appointment. I was dying by the time they took me back

The reward is when youre waking up after the procedure...The anesthetic wears off gradually and youre in a semi sleep for like an hour..Its a great feeling..Plus, then youre hungry as hell and get to pig out...lol

Yeah, it's at 8am. So the doc said I will be in "semi-sedation" or something like that during the procedure. Is that what you all had, or did you do the full sedation?

I'm sure it's the same. I remember getting wheeled to the procedure room and they put stuff in the IV. The doc was saying something about Broc Lesnar and then I woke up to my wife telling me to put my clothes on so we could go. I was completely out but I don't think it was full sedation because it wasn't very long. I apparently had a conversation with the doctor that I don't remember.

That first meal after a fast...

I did just bread and water the week before going to New York. That pizza from Gino's on Broadway was even better than I remember.

I countered with my current salary. We'll see if they accept. Why can't decisions just be easy for once?

Ya misspelled Adam
Eve screwed up first (arguably). Adam takes responsibility though because his part of his role was to prevent stuff like that. After all, he was probably standing right there letting Eve get tempted...he could've stopped the whole thing just by saying something. So who's fault was it? Both.

Eve was tricked...Adam ate without trickery
Was she truly "tricked" though? There is the aspect of she wanted to be like God which is why she was willing to eat it in the first place. There was manipulation, yes, but the "sinful desire" to be like God is what got to her. It's not like she gets a pass for being the one that Satan talked to...indeed that probably means she was the weak link.

You could say Adam was just like "yo I thought that was a regular fruit, I had no idea!" and was thus also tricked in a way. That's less likely, but you could argue it.
