Here's a link to get caught up on "The Apprentice." http://www.nbc.com/nbc/The_Apprentice/
Who was fired? Cute, sweet Jason was fired because he was project manager and made a bad decision that cost them. Great show!

Big rave for my doctor. If he is late it is only because he's not rushing someone out the door. I have never waited more than two weeks for a test or to see a specialist and sometimes it has been the next day. He takes serious matters seriously but also has a terrific sense of humour.

Another rave - for the relatively mild weather here on the west coast.

Rave: my doctor has a nurse practioner who I see almost every time. Not as rushed, more on time and a much more pleasant person than my doctor.

Another rave: Go Colts!

Rant: my client's computer project is in the first Titanic phase. They've hit the iceburg, but everyone is still saying, "it's not that bad," "she'll never sink," "no problems here."

Travel Rant...getting an aisle seat in the last row by the restroom and having to look at the butt of the obnoxious woman who felt it was her right to stand in the aisle for most of the 5 hour flight. My worst regret was she wasn't there when the little boy ran down the aisle and vomited where she had been standing.
Rave...I get to tag along on businees trips to NYC and Florida, and plan a 25 Yr anniversary trip this summer!

Rant: Getting finished with patients at 6:30 p.m. when the office closed at 5:00 pm. and my own blood glucose and cholesterol are too high after that snack machine lunch inbetween patients.

Rave: Everyone will live to see another day, albeit late to dinner.

Uuhhh, I know for a fact that Dan knows the difference among two, to, and too. He's very well-spoken. A definite a typo.

Rant: The sharp-edged little tags at the neckline of t-shirts. Sheer torture at the back of the neck. Mine's been driving me crazy all day!

There was a crash right in front of me on the Capital Beltway tonight. I was doing 80, the others were going faster. Car in lane to my right jammed on brakes but stopped fairly straight without coming into my lane. The car to his right spun around so that passenger side was dead ahead. I didn't panic, kept left of the first car and swerved around the second all the while waiting to hear a bang, but I got though clean. Those people were pretty lucky.

I just got a car rental picking up at LAX and dropping off at LAS Vegas. If I rented at the corporate rate then there would be no unlimited miles. Would have to pay for each mile to L.V. Rate on the website had a $69 drop off fee.

With Costco membership, it is unlimited miles and no drop-off fee. Basically, the charge will be the same as if it was dropped off at the pickup location, LAX. I like my Costco card.
