28.06.07 contract up for grabs

I have a friend who’s looking for a freelance designer to develop a logo and graphic templates (stationery, web design) for his company. Enquire within.

UPDATE: position filled, thanks.

14.12.04 used furniture

Anyone know of any community or eco service that takes used furniture, and will pick it up, other than the Salvation Army and St-Vincent-de-Paul?

Thanks.

Update: Thanks for the suggestions, but this freecycle thing has proven fantabulous! I now have about 15 people wanting to come take my couch away. Great initiative, this site.

29.04.04 important question

This has been nagging at me: the dog in the Viagra ad, is he real?

(bonus question: is he the reason the guy is singing? ew.)

30.10.03 help!

Where can I find a good selection of inexpensive Halloween wigs? It seems everywhere I go, they’re sold out of the better ones.

19.06.03 is there a transportation engineer in the house?

Here’s a real long shot. Does anyone out there know where I could find the notational convention for “intersection”? I’m not talking about intersections in the Venn diagram sense, but in the civil engineering sense (like the intersection between two streets). I’m looking for the standard notation for that, and it should be an international standard.

Free coffee, beer or potable of your choice to whomever happens to know this.

10.06.03 for you web types

What’s the best way to generate an RSS feed if I’m using Blogger, not Blogger Pro? Thanks.

14.03.03 dilemma

How much of a nightmare is it to move on July 1st?

We don’t have to move on that day, so we’d rather not, but most apartments offered are, of course, for that day. We can’t really afford to cut July apartments out of our search. Should we?

07.03.03 reminder

I am looking for an apartment. At least two bedrooms, 1000$ max, near metro (preferably orange line), anytime between May and August. We have excellent references.

03.02.03 what’s for dinner?

I was looking through some recipe books at a library during lunchtime today, looking for inspiration for dinner. I get into food ruts, and It seems every time I buy a new recipe book, I end up gravitating towards one or two easy-to-make recipes, which I add to my cooking repertoire, and then I never touch the book again.

I decided against buying yet another volume that would undoubtedly end up gathering oil and strange smells on the shelf above my stove. After all, I thought, there are so many recipe websites, I can get it for free. But I have to say I’ve been disappointed on that front too.

So, boys and girls, who’s got a good recipe? What are you making for dinner?

15.01.03 question

Lots of nasty and momentous changes have been happening at the office lately, and I’ve really been meaning to talk about it here. I’m posting inanities mostly, when there are these big things going on, and that feels ridiculous.

But I’m reluctant. I’ve read horror stories of people losing their jobs for blogging about them. Even when they didn’t name company names, people names, or even their own name. I think that was only in the States, but still.
