* Jan. 28th Update: The following post is a one-sided rant, written in anger after a day of frustration. Aspen Ridge Management did not have an opportunity to respond to the following observations before I posted.  Since posting  this , Management has responded to me, promptly and professionally, in an effort to justify their actions (or lack thereof). Hopefully, Mgmt will desire to sit down with me (of their own volition) seeking constructive feedback on  ways to improve the Old Mill tenant experience—bryantanner@gmail.com My Rant (after only 3 weeks at Old Mill):    Aspen Ridge Management  (the corporation that manages my current residence— Old Mill Condominiums )—so far, reminds me of an alimony-dodging father figure, contented to do as little for their dependents as possible, whilst pocketing subsequent excess cash.  Here's a short list of my observations of Aspen Ridge Mgmt's failings: to clear the sidewalks of snow so that par...

Thanks, Mint.com , for keeping me abreast of my financial spending (which I believe consisted of only three purchases: BYU Tuition , Winter 2013 Rent,  Old Mill Condos  Food, Maceys grocery store

I was a little too excited to start school this semester—A few hours before the end of the Add/Drop date, I was signed up for 24 credits.  In hindsight  that was probably a mistake.  Here's what I think happened: I thought, "YES! Back in school! I love all of these classes, and they all fit so perfectly; nothing overlaps.  I can do this!" When I realized I was way over the recommended 9-12 credit load for full-time students, I then thought, "I've done it before at USU.  I think one semester I took somewhere between 18-22 credits.  If I could do it once, I can do it again.  Plus, I'm only working 5-10 hours/week.  If I'm not working at least 20-hours/week, this is an opportunity to use that time doing school work." When my conscience tried to warn me again, I thought, "Shut up, Conscience!  I am walking into this program halfway through the school year.  I have to catch up.  Plus taking a lot of credits is cool. Plus it w...

Gizmodo recently ranked this as the best razor on the market. (Image Source ) Shaving with the Sensotouch 3D feels like removing facial hair with robot kisses. There is virtually zero hair tugging, even through three-day long stubble. The SensoTouch did require more passes as the stubble length increased, but for daily use, its performance was unmatched. I often found myself using it to clean up after testing the other units—using it wet or with shaving foam, the SensoTouch consistently shaved trouble spots that the others missed. An hour of charge provides an equal length of run time. You can't adjust the intensity of the shave as you can with the Braun, but the SensoTouch's pivoting/flexing/tilting head doesn't miss a single curve on your face. It is also the most aesthetically sharp shaver we tested. It genuinely looks like it's  from the future . The body reads out the remaining amount of shave time in bold white numbers, while its LED power display gently ...

Wikipedia I'm taking a film making class for Instructional Designers this semester.  One of our assignments is to create a video that teaches something.  I was considering instructing the viewer on the steps of how to orchestrate a prank.  I've collected a couple of winners here: Kissing Booth Stand-in  (the 2nd part probably wouldn't work though.) Replace the gay guy, with a less-attractive woman.  See how much money it will take for the guy to submit. Booth in the WILK Footsie Study  (CPR Recertification) This one would work perfectly in a side room in the WILK! Police Celebrate 100,000 Tickets Campus police really are close to this, I'm sure. Showdown in the Park This one wouldn't really work on campus, but the cinematography and drama were too good to pass up. Sign up to Serve a 2nd Mission, NOW! This would work for returned missionaries of either gender. Sign up today and get a lifetime supply of free ties or nylon...
