In the case of the Mets, I haven't been to a game...since the above. Long story, but the cliff notes are that a Shea Stadium box seats usher dragged me to that game insisting that I attend.....

Red Sox - 4

Mets - ? (Hello?!?! Bueller?)

But, but, the previous Mets owners were busy exposing Bernie Maddoff & his ponzi program.

Hi, the rates are different depending on the experience, skills and knowledge, as well as the technologies that the consultant owns, but in general I think that you can find out more here it consulting rate

...because I just received notice a few minutes ago that my employer is selling the building where my office is located. You know, the nearly-vacant 3-story building off the beaten path that I share with 5 colleagues...with a huge empty parking lot.

Why is it a good day?

They have no free offices to move us into, so we will probably get to WFH for possibly a year or more!!!!!

Today is a good day because...

My new CPU arrived today. I'm upgrading my 4.5 year old homebuilt computer from an i7-7700K 4-core to the new AMD Ryzen 9 5900K 12-core 24 thread CPU. The required new mobo (ASUS Crossfire) should arrive Friday. Fun, fun, fun!

CPU = Central Processing Unit, the core of all computers.

I'm a long-time flight simulator enthusiast and the latest sim from Microsoft requires a pretty high-end computer to achieve good frame rates and high detail.

So my late 2012 MacBook Pro with the i5 processor is probably not a good candidate?

Last day of my deadline. I'm still going to pull a midnight to make it, but this should be the last night for a while.

So not so much today, but tomorrow will be a good day...

Same here. Removed the CD drive and moved the original spinning drive there, then installed an SSD for the OS. It's still a very capable laptop.
