Wow... just went through 5 pages with nothing from either Scoble. Either FOAF is broken or things have slowed down to the point that I'll have to subscribe directly instead of letting everyone else filter for me.

DISAGREE! "A pie wedge on wheels, the Prowler is indulgent and corny—perfect for a mid-life crisis.

Last night I drove soooo damn far looking for a place to get good fried chicken! The only place I ruled out immediately was KFC. After driving to various parts of the northeast metro, all were either closed or no longer offering fried chicken. So I finally ended up at--you guessed it--KFC! Ten bucks for 2 wings and 2 breasts! At my preferred non-chain place I can get 8 pieces for 7 bucks!

If you do end up getting Swine Flu and don't have the genetics for getting a bad case, it will feel like a normal head cold, but your face will hurt. It is weird. (My students gave it to me and I just had the head cold + face hurt variety.)

If you're looking for certain generics, you can get them for $4 at Target. List of medications included: http://sites.target.com/site...

What's kind of annoying about the whole thing is that they can't even tell you what the price is without first filling the order.
- Alex Scoble
from IM
Alex, if they told you that, that's flat out not true. I used to do a lot of calling around for prescription prices when I was doing social work. Unless there's some wacky law in Oregon that is different from Washington, they can certainly tell you the price before you fill it.

I go to CVS. If I went elsewhere would it be cheaper? I thought my insurance set the co-pay at $5? EDIT: And that's not for Viagra.
- Derrick
Derrick, if your copay is $5, that's about the cheapest you're going to find. If you went to Target (or another one of those stores with the $4 generics plan) you could get it for $4 if your medication was on their approved list, but I'm not sure if that hassle of switching pharmacies would be worth the $1 savings for you.
- Rochelle
Sorry, they told me what the cost without insurance was, but they couldn't tell me what the cost was with insurance without filling the prescription.
- Alex Scoble
from IM
I write pharmacy software, not involved much after insurance gets involved, but for the most part it's all just totally made up numbers for everything. Everybody negotiates their contracts with each insurance for reimbursal rates, same with the purchase price from the wholesalers. For non-generics it would be really hard to figure out the cheapest place. No one on any level wants to reveal their true pricing information.
- David Knight
Okay, yeah. That makes sense then. However, if you call your insurance company directly and ask them, they should be able to tell you what kind of prescription coverage you have and what your copays are.
- Rochelle
I don't have copays, Rochelle...Until I get married and switch to Cassie's insurance that is (yay for teacher insurance)...I'm currently in a High Deductible Healthcare Plan right now...100% of my preventative medications are paid for, but my Mirapex is hella expensive (about $90 a month)

Donald Knuth is so revered among computer scientists that they won't cash his checks. Knuth offers a standard reward of $2.56 (one "hexadecimal dollar") to the first finder of each error in his published books. Since 1981 he has written more than $20,000 in checks, but most of the recipients have simply framed them as points of pride. "There's one man who lives near Frankfurt who would probably have more than $1,000 if he cashed all the checks I've sent him," Knuth said in an October 2001 lecture. "Even if everybody cashed their checks, it would stil be more than worth it to me to know that my books are getting better."

I dislike feet. Luckily, so does Dave, so neither one of use has to give foot massages. I told him if he ever got hurt I'd have to hire someone to clip his toenails.

- Joey Gibson
I eat salad with my hands. It's not as messy as it sounds because I don't put salad dressing on it. I keep that on the side in case I want it. I often don't.

I got my hand caught in a stationary mixer when I was three. The ER had to get an electrician to come in and dismantle it. My mother was making cherry cheescake with graham cracker crust. While she was not watching I wrapped my fingers around the beaters and turned it on. The cast had the thumb free so I could suck my thumb without obstruction.
- Janet
When I was 15, a horse kicked me in the head. More of a glancing blow, really, but I still have a couple faint small scars on my face where I had stitches.

- Soup

- DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
I find cereal, beer and coffee to all be disgusting! Occasionally there is a beer I can stand, but its incredibly rare an seems to have no rhyme or reason. There is no coffee in the world I can stand, not even coffee ice cream. And cereal should only be eaten in chex mix and rice crispy treats! :)

I was a peanut vendor at game 4 of the 1996 world series Braves v Yankees (it's on EPSN Classic right now). It was the next to last game ever played at Fulton County stadium... I didn't have to work past the 7th inning, so I holed up behind home plate, about 10 rows behind Ted and Jane.

I once bribed a guard at the Prado museum to let me stand really, really close to one of the Bosch paintings of Hell to figure out if one of the figures was a mole or a monk (answer: yes.) It took $10, and letting his co-guard take a picture of us together.

Before I learned to walk, I managed to climb up the inside of my crib, down the outside, crawl into the living room, turn on the tv, then lay down and watch. I learned to talk a few months later, and by walk, I mean I decided to stand up, run full speed across the room, then sit down. Actual walking didn't happen until I was tired of running. I still prefer running and climbing over walking.
