Morning guys...

Mojo, what break are you watching tonight?

Gonna leave at 1115am for my school's golf outing. Very much looking forward to get some clean air out of the office!

Hello and good morning Daniel. :D Very much looking forward to the break.

Ok, completely from left field... My question is, why hasn't ebay combined auctions and best offers? Why don't they make BO's available all the time? How many times have you mailed the seller of a regular auction and made an offer and they end early? Wouldn't it make sense from a business standpoint to work that into every single auction with so many being ended early for BO's? Maybe I need more coffee but it makes sense to me. I can't think of a reason why they wouldn't.

Good morning gents. I got a text from a co-worker at midnight last night saying her kid is sick and she has to take him to the doctor so I have to go in early for her. I love working an 11 hour shift on 6 hours sleep. ::facepalm::

2 more days till a 3-day weekend... :cool:

As a [strike:2s490fak]major[/strike:2s490fak] very minor EBAY shareholder, I vote to make this change immediately. I am losing profits from all the off-line offers I make and that are accepted. :lol: :lol:

Good morning.
Just got back from a math meeting that basically says we're scrapping the program we use throughout the entire k-12 spectrum because 2nd grade teachers don't like it. Ugh.

This was after a district meeting yesterday that says Massachusetts math scores are so high, they don't get compared to other states anymore, they get compared to the world. And we're in the upper third of this state. But it's not good enough? I'm just dreading re-working my curriculum...

Good luck on the break tonight, everyone.

...going well and you??

Good luck with the break tonight! I have a completely free afternoon/night today, which is rare for this time of year. No soccer games or any other kids activities. It will likely be me, my friend Sam Adams, and the cast of the Office hangin' out tonight...... ;)

A couple, however I like to wait for them to get in before I show them off...plus I'm too lazy to scan them one at a time and need a stack of them to motivate me. (que dan's poor me scanning music) ;)
