Susan, I've sort of seen Bravo Two Zero, if it's the one I think it is. Sean Bean as British soldier during Gulf War? I think it's fairly intense but worth watching, as a Bean fan. Plus, if you have a non network-censored version, there's nudity. Not erotic nudity, but still. I didn't pay all that much attention to it because war movies are generally Not My Thing.

Natter 34: Freak With No Name
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.
Susan, I'm not familiar with either of those movies. So can't help there, except to note that a number of Buffistas have fought for Sean Bean as SCB.
And I've got a longstanding claim, too.
Is it time for your husband to take Annabel out for an afternoon (or morning, or evening) while you lounge with a decadent snack for a double feature?
Problem is, I spend so much time on choir and writing activities--weekly Wednesday choir rehearsals plus alternate Sundays where I have to be at both morning services, Monday night writers group, Seattle Romance Writers of America once a month, writers conference planning meetings once a month, plus I've just added a monthly Regency critique group. It already feels like half the time when he gets home I hand him the baby and run. I'm really insanely busy, but I love what I'm doing.
Yep, that's the one, Dana.
Gnerg. I just had my favorite pain in the ass throw attitude at me. Used to it from him, but snippy snippy. If I tell you that your problem is systemic, not specific to the interface and you need to talk to IT, just do it. I am not your personal assistant. Your problem is not my fault and what's more? I can't fix your problem.
How is it a 40+ year old fairly well known professional can achieve such when they have the personality of a 3 year old in need of a nap? Sheesh.
Thanks everyone for the jobma. Since this was my first interview from the interviewee side, pretty much ever, I'm not really sure how to guage it. I got the interview in response to a resume I uploaded to a firm website, and not for any specific job opening although I indicated a strong preference for health care law.
On the plus side he asked me to register for the FL bar, ASAP, and mentioned "short list" and "in-person interview." On the minus side, I have no idea if that's how he talks to all the candidates or what.
All in all, it could have gone a lot worse.
That sounds good to me, Wolfram. When it comes to job hunts, "short list" is one of my favorite phrases. I hope it comes through for you, if you want it.
That sounds very positive, Wolfram. Way to go.
So follow up hivemind question: anyone know anything about the FL bar?
Which one? THere are several. Specially in South Beach.
Wolfram, I know very, very vaguely from a friend who took the FL bar (it was his 4th exam in search of his 4th membership -- he was crazy that way). IIRC from his comments, FL takes the fitness part very, very seriously -- they ask for lots of references, things like that.
I also have vague memories that about 10 years ago, someone sued the FL bar over membership. Seems the bar rejected the plaintiff for membership because the plaintiff had had a mental health problem, received treatment, something along that line in the past.
Sorry, it's all very fuzzy, but it may help.
