    HBO Miniseries - The Pacific

    It really depends. The thing that makes Band of Brothers good is that is follows that single company all the way through the European theatre. That continuity helped build an emotional attachment to what was going on beyond the war and fighting sequences. The challenge the Pacific theatre is...

    HBO Miniseries - The Pacific

    I cant wait! Hope it is as least as good as Band Of Brothers. I've seen that show start to end MANY times...

    Kindle Revisted

    I have 6". (Been my story my whole life. Sticking to it here, too.) *Love* it. If all you are looking to do is read books, then it really is the perfect size. The larger model has some minor increased functionality, but the increased footprint really makes it something different besides a...

    TSP Loan and repayment with taxed income

    Somehow I missed this post earlier. So, I'm responding to it now. These "lost earnings" are equate to the minimum monthly amount you would have to pay if you took out the loan outside of TSP. Calling them lost isn't exactly accurate. Given same loan type, interest rate, and period of...

    For feds, more get 6-figure salaries

    I just bought a motorcycle (Honda VTX 1300R for those interested). I intend to invest a growing amount of time in its saddle in the near and far future. The cost of future credentials is too high relative to their potential gains compared to feeling of a good ride on a warm day through country...

    For feds, more get 6-figure salaries

    Hitting $100k is pretty common in the area of DoD where I work. (I'm still not there, but very close!). I'm guessing 2-3 more years until I cross that threshold. As a point of comparison, I am 30 year old with these credentials (and associated relevant progressive work experience): BS Chemical...

    I thinkI posted the Hendrix version earlier in this thread somewhere. I like how the Corrs took the song and put it in a completely different light. At first, I thought I wouldnt like it because it didnt have that opening guitar riff. But it started to grow on me.
