It's from one of those psuedo-old-fashioned metal signs, like Perkins said.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't think it means anything, Connie. I mean, nothing beyond the fact that it is.
ION, fuck me. My boss just told me to call a courier to pick something up, and they won't be here for an hour! I've been here since 8 this morning. But the truly terrible part is, I've already turned in my time sheet!!! Maybe I can just leave it with a note.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
I just heard one of my cow-orkers, obviously on the phone with her kid, say "Have fun! Make good choices!"
I didn't think any parent actually said things like that.Mine did. Those very words.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What the hell is Moxie? (The brand name)

Some nasty-tasting soda pop, far as I can tell.

My mother really said, "Be good. If you can't be good, be careful. If you can't be careful, name it after me."

Old school soda brand.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Moxie is still for sale, I think, in some states. It is a dark-colored soda, and then there used to be a brand fo flavored Moxie seltzers I drank when I was a preteen. Moxie soda I have avoided, but the seltzers were quite good.
I think Moxie is regional to the northeast, so I am not surprised it is Ted Williams shilling for it.

Har. I just thought this kid who came off the elevator was the messenger, but no -- he was a grad student. Ah well.
I'm leaving anyway.

Grad students always need money, Jesse. Give him the package and a ten and see where it gets you.
