Anybody ever heard of a 'Hanover Tomato" ?

The Hanover Tomato is a mostly large variety of cultivated tomato grown in Hanover County, Virginia. While most Hanover Tomatoes that come to market are large fruits, they are not necessarily defined by their size but rather by the geographic setting—normally in coastal soil rich in sand—in which they are grown.

I have now! I thought Hanover was in Germany.......... damn Yanks stealing all the European town names

Only one person can access the site at a time, and you only get 60 seconds of access during your time. You have to get a ticket and get in line. I'm gonna wait to see what it's all about. Probably something stupid but oh well.

I think I'm a little burnt out on these online classes. I find myself doing everything I can to avoid doing anything for them.

It's good to be back home...I traveled to another part of the internet, got totally flamed and now I'm home.

Which is weird because you're usually such a flamer.

It's a whole different world, isn't it? Are they self-paced or time structured? Add deadlines to that and it becomes even harder.

Not really. I was never really dependent on the classroom structure back in college. If there was a really good book on the topic of discourse, then I could pass the class quite easily without attending lectures. Instructors would be offended, but whatever. Egotistical bastards, some of them. If it was something ridiculously specific and current (something new, something that changes every several months and doesn't have books on it published in a timely fashion... there were a few of those in my senior year), I would need to be in class because the written resources wouldn't be available.

There's both self-paced and time-constrained. I have no problem with either. I prefer the deadlines, actually. I can blow off the self-paced ones quite easily just because I can.

I suppose it would mean a little more to me if I was actually paying for this junk, but I'm a cheap bastard and I'm not getting actual credit for any of this shit. The knowledge should be enough, but after 2 years of constant studying, I find myself wanting to do something else. I felt the same way around the time I was about to graduate with my bachelor's. I just had enough, wanted to be done, and wanted to move on.

Are you going to get a job in the field?

Which field?

[PorkChopSandwiches]

Which field?

Programming? Math? Whatever you been practicing.

I don't know. I have to see what's available and how far I'd have to relocate if at all. I imagine everything's really competitive. Anything I've been studying online is probably being taught in college at a deeper level than what I've been seeing. But we'll see.

I just got into some trouble. Have a speeding ticket for 115 dollars. Read that I could fight it, pay by check or pay it at a local registry.

Since it's 2015 and I don't have checks, or trust mailing anything to the police department for fear of - We didn't get your letter, I went to the registry.

115 please, plus 9 dollar registry charge.
Me - Seriously?
Her - Yes
Then I use my debit card and it charges an additional 50 cent for the transaction.
Me - Seriously?
Her - Yes (laughing)

She gives me my receipt and says thanks, you're done.
I say - So there's not a 6 buck charge to walk out of your registry, amazing.
Her - Sir, that was not funny.
Me - Can I give you a tip. Maybe put that charge on the sign with all of the other prices. Annnnd that good advice was 9 dollars, you can pay me cash
Her - Nice try
