Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Morning everyone! Anyone got an update today? :p

Alright, well gonna take a spin through the neighborhood, be back in a bit.
 
Good morning everyone and happy hump day (to most).

LA Kings going to the Stanley Cup Finals - now we wait on the Eastern Team, who hopefully is the Devils. I'd love to see my favorite team in the Cup!

Fleet Week ships will be passing through the Hudson today - I'll grab some pictures.

Thanks Stigy! I wish I had paid attention and known they were coming through today. I could have gone to see.

And as a plus of not working I get to extend a trip to see my cousin graduate to now include a trip to Busch Gardens! Woohoo!!
 
I took this new job last year working for Norfolk Southern. They pay pretty well and the pension is great. One of the guys was driving home yesterday from work and while listening to NPR he heard a story about welding/skilled jobs in Australia. Some of these jobs are paying up to $300,000/yr. I guess they are lacking skilled workers there? Has me thinking..

OMG, now it appears we all need to be careful when sending a text to someone we know is driving :eek::eek::eek:

Suing the sender? Distracted driving lawsuit blames both texters for crash - CBS News

Lawyers :mad::p
Click to expand...

Yep, this is yet another cash cow for defense attorneys: now two parties need defense lawyers in one case! :mad:

Now, if the driver texted his girlfriend with something to the effect of "I'm driving home, see you soon" and she kept distracting him with texts? She could be considered a contributing cause to the wreck. But then again: all the driver had to do was put down the stupid phone and NOT respond.

This will be a very interesting case.

EDIT: Deleted. Too political for this thread. [/spoiler]

Don't worry, be happy :)
