I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Real World Metropolis

This one threw me because I was expecting German dystopia, and got superheroes.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I've signed up for BARBRI's "self-study" program.

I used Micromash, which is another self-study program. I put fewer hours in than the Bar-Bri people and still passed. It's doable. But the thing that worked for me: three weeks straight of making flashcards. Flashcards, flashcards, flashcards!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Real World Metropolis

Aquaman gets no respect.

But that's OK, because he sucks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck with that, Dana.

OK, it's really too late to ask this question, but: I left a quiche in my turned-off oven for like 7 hours yesterday. Do you think it would go bad? I'm hoping not, since I just ate part of it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Oh, that's cool; I didn't know that. But you don't live here, right?

Correct. I'm a federal employee in DC, living in the VA suburbs. For employee-attorneys, the feds only want you to have a bar membership in some state. There are actually several UNC alums/NC bar members around here (fitting, since it's banking regulation).

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good luck with the interview, Dana.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

This one threw me because I was expecting German dystopia, and got superheroes.

And really, with Seth it probably could have gone either way. Though I suspect that superhero action figures are easier to find.

Heh, Metropolis action figures would be right up there with the "My Dinner With Andre" action figures.

He's the Sub-Submariner.

because apparently helping people does not fall under his purview as help desk guy.

This reminds me of a story from work. We were trying to get a computer hooked up and called the help desk to send someone down to help. Someone comes down and needs someone to turn something on, so he makes a call.
Guy: yeah, I need someone to flibberty flobbet.
Speakerphone, snottily: did you call the help desk?
Guy: I AM THE HELP DESK!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Metropolis action figures

Isn't that pretty much what Oscars are?
