Sara, obviously your cat has hacked into your company's network in a ploy to avoid getting medicated.

Oh, but he LIKEs getting shot. Besides, he's the dopey one. And I don't really have to stick around for the hubub. I just will have to deal with all the whiners distressed customers tomorrow morning.

Tom, you totally can do it. Think how far you already have come. Robin and ita are both right on in my experience (at least about this piece). The learning how part is usually so uncomfortable, but worthwhile.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Re: "Louie, Louie," good ol' Snopes has exhaustive info on just how wrongfooted the whole thing is. Rumor was actually started by kids to aggravate old people:

Back in 1963, everybody who knew anything about rock 'n' roll knew that the Kingsmen's "Louie Louie" concealed dirty words that could be unveiled only by playing the 45 rpm single at 33-1/3. This preposterous fable bore no scrutiny even at the time, but kids used to pretend it did, in order to panic parents, teachers, and other authority figures. Eventually those ultimate authoritarians, the FBI got involved, conducting a thirty-month investigation that led to "Louie"'s undying — indeed, unkillable — reputation as a dirty song.

EDIT: Funny thing is, the FBI actually spent two years investigating the possibility that the lyrics were actually smutty--great priorities, J. Edgar.

Your phone and mine, Kat. It's amazing we can communicate at all. Anyway, I'm home, but my hands will be full for, oh, 1/2 an hour or so.
