Terry, some official-looking people have questions about your parking space at work...








Seems they must've found your floorboard garbage disposal. -- BUSTED!







HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Captain Zoom Says Happy Birthday Terry!

I had a record of this when I was little. Cheap plastic record, the kind you had to put a coin on to keep it from sliding around the record player.

Anyway, I thought it was really cool then, and I see that they are still doing it. Same song, same melody. You can get one here: http://www.captainzoom.com/

The funny thing.. while searching for this picture for you, I clicked on the example birthday mp3, and it was mine :smile:

Now there's a memory I haven't had in quite a while. Cool!

I remember having to do that with the single records you would cut from the back of cereal boxes. We would always cut them out before the cereal was gone leaving a box with a big hole cut out of the back. :smile:

That's kind of how I feel about it too. I just don't know where to park and don't want to get stuck in a ramp when it's over and the ramps will be full of workers this afternoon. Is there still a parking lot at the south end of the Wabasha Bridge?

I guess that would depend on which busses you gotta take....

    They took away my bottle of water when I went to the Mpls. rally. But then I saw Wally the Beer Man selling water when I got inside.

    There used to be a lot under the Wabasha Bridge and people would park there during the day and walk across the bridge to work. Anyone know where that was? I can't find it on Mapquest's aerial view map.

    Does anyone have an HSA?

    I'd like to know the pros and cons of having one since my medical coverage expires today.

    Can't help you out there. I have Medicare. :sad:

    They suck if theres no money in it. Hope you don't get sick because you have to pay out of pocket if theres no money in it. You do get tax breaks for stuff like glasses and out of pocket medical costs like dental and stuff you can write checks on because the money is taxfree money in the account. You pay everything untill the deductable is paid each year then they cover everything else. All depends on how much the dudctuctable is and how much $$ your employer kicks in too.

    Also: you tend to roll the dice on Health Care. (see: whitney, foot)

    They're a pretty good thing if you're generally healthy. If you're not (re: more than 2 drs. visits/year) they're not a good idea.

    Thanks guys. I'm looking into various options. I'm trying to find a program that would cover Ali and not necessarily myself. My employer offered coverage is $162.70 a month for me but over $1k if I added Ali.

    I'll call the county and state tomorrow to see if there's anything out there.

    An HSA looks to be the best option so far yet I don't think she can get on one by herself without having me as a primary. And I need actual coverage to take care of a $7k vasectomy I plan on having soon.

    Unless one of you can do it :sheepish:

    7k to get snipped? Wow.

    Our small company's health insurance is getting obscene. We have had a significant number of "extreme" health care needs that have created huge insurance claims in the past few years that give our firm a kind of "Bad" credit rating.

    Our HR and owners have done all they can to try to keep our coverage the same, but we're paying for it. Family insurance plus dental comes out to over $620 a month!

    My wife is in the State Employee Health Plan - as much as she complains about the cost, it is still cheaper for us to use her family plan versus myself independently.

    On the subject of snipping, I gave a friend a home penile enlargement kit once:

    1) utility knife

    2) home darning kit

    3) bike inner tube

    4) bike pump

    5) 5th of Jack Daniels
