'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Guess what got dropped on my face one morning in the wee smalls?
Best not to get an iPod then. It'll leave a mark.
I think I jammed my finger sometime yesterday. Single best finger to jam, since it's a joint that's been fused since birth, so I couldn't bend it more than 2 degrees if I wanted to. Automatic rest. But it feels funny. I guess I'll give it a week or so, since it's not like I can lose function. It's only pain, and really not very much if I take my nine finger typing down to eight.
It's not unknown for pedestrians and bicyclists to try to cross the tracks near a train station in front of a train, not realized that the train is an express train that's going 70 mph instead of a regular train that's gonna stop at the station.
I spent my adolescence in a town bisected by train tracks. All it ran was Amtrak (the inland route between Boston and New York, and only 1/4 of these stopped in town) and the occasional eternal freight train. We crossed the tracks, including in places where there weren't RR Crossing barriers, all the time.
Of course, (a) trains always hit their horns entering and leaving town and (b) it is customary to look both ways, listen, and then scoot like you're being chased across the tracks anyway.
Really? Are those compatible with iTunes/Mac? I covet an iPod, but it's a bit out of my price range at the moment.
Stuff you buy from the iTunes store can only be played on an iPod. If you've got a bunch of mp3s then you could use both iTunes and a non-iPod player with that collection, but syncing to the portable player won't be as convienent.
More thoughts: Where was Mork and Mindy set? Was that Denver? ( on edit): nope, Boulder, which is sort of close.
Where was Three's Company set? Was that San Diego?
Also, I'd love a minimac. Not more than an LCD projecter, but still.
I'm trying to talk the guy in the cube over to get a mini mac. They're so charming-looking, but I'd be better served by a laptop than a third desktop, inasmuch as it is one. Still, if you were buying me one, go ahead. I'll be all grateful and stuff.
Guy a couple cubes over is talking on the phone to his mother about his love life. He needs to not do that.
about the size of a deck of cads.
I know this is a typo, but, hee! This I'd like to see.
You could shuffle them, and pick a cad! Any cad...
I used to take the train to school everyday, and one time a friend of mine and I decided to walk the tracks home instead of getting on the train. Not the smartest thing I've ever done, but as long as you maintained awareness, not especially dangerous on the Erie Lackawanna in the sixties. OTOH, now I live right by Amtrak's Boston-NYC line (I used to be able to watch the trains go by from my kitchen), and I'm not at all tempted to see what my reaction time would be versus an Acela.

Remember your cad, but don't show him to me. Now put the cad back in the deck....
I saw that too! Deck of cads, deck a cad!
Maybe Three's Company was supposed to be in Santa Monica?
