What is even happening?

If he's poisoned, they're going to looker harder at female suspects than male. Can't you think of something more messy and violent?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You're right. Perry Mason and Poirot would take me apart in a minute.

Is he shutting down his laptop? Please, god, let him be shutting it down.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Maybe you can dangle some live electric wires from the ceiling, so the next time he pumps his arms, he'll get an electric shock.

With any luck at all, he might high-five another salesdroid, and you'll get two for one.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I R SO HAPPY!!

So the situation with my iPod has been resolved. FTR, I had used iTunes at my previous work computer to rip and upload the 2400+ songs on my iPod. THEN, not understanding how iTunes and iPod interfacing really worked, I dumped that iTunes when I left, think I could get iTunes at my new job and upload the stuff on my iPod and be all peachy keen. Yeah, nsm. BUT, I just found a work around freeware thing that works for PCs(there are several for Apple). Of course, Apple goes after all these places eventually, but I only need it the once. WHEE!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Had my annual physical today. Other than my triglycerides being too high, everything is fine.(Somehow the triglyceride level is worse than last year, though the total cholesterol, HDL and LDL are better than last year. Huh)

So what =is= the difference between Coke Zero and Diet Coke anyhow? (Diet sodas generally taste like ass to me. If there's no real difference, i know I can skip Coke Zero, too)

I asked and am still waiting breathlessly for an answer. (Instead of googling it myself, I suppose.)

Isn't it a difference in which sugar substitute is used?

Dana, you work in my office? I've got 10 of 'em. Oh lordy do I hate the days they are all here together. This week they are all at training so it's just so lovely and quiet here.

They're generally not around much, but this new one seems to live near me. I'm thinking about putting up a fort. I keep asking, but management keeps saying no...

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

I think Diet Coke is all aspartame, and Coke Zero is aspartame and something else. The marketing push is all along the lines of "It tastes like regular Coke!" which isn't true, of course, but it might taste more like regular Coke than their other diet varieties. (I actually prefer the taste of aspartame to HFCS, so I wouldn't know.)
