'Safe'
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.
I just went and checked IMDb to make sure my memory wasn't going (post first and ask later, that's my motto), and their blurb says "a planet that has three suns orbiting around it."
So my confidence is shot - if they don't know what orbits what, can they count?
shrift, at least it is moderately innocuous. Several years ago, I got one with the gist of people get the government they deserve.
Why yes, it was right around the time of some local elections.
So my DH had a cool day today. He and the ambassador met with the MIT guy who is doing underwater archaeological surveying here. It's the same team that photographed the Titanic and the Lusitania. Now they are using submersible cameras that are tether-free, which is a necessity as the Greeks don't have any gyroscopically-stabilzed ships. But anyway, this dude is a (the?) professor of Technology and History, what a great field! He unrolled the film, about 6' of photos, of a 4th C trireme that went down between Asia Minor and the Attic Peninsula, and my DH went all fanboy on him. DH's now one of the first 35 people to see this ship and its cargo in the last 2400 years.
Sophia! What excellent news! Too bad you can't take vacation for at least part of your notice.
That's really cool, Raquel! I swear, I just read/saw a thing on them.
Sophia, that's wonderful! I've been wanting you out of that job for a long time. t /allaboutme
I just watched Pitch Black again, and it's three suns.
There. Are. Three. Lights.

I am so freakin' jealous. I'm seriously considering taking up SCUBA diving so I can get involved in underwater surveying. And that's in Ireland. The conditions in the Med sound a lot more tempting, I have to say.
Sophia, congratulations! I will be happy to give up my @@ of amusement at your insane boss, for the sake of a happier you!
it's 'illegal' (though I suspect that's a strong bit of propoganda on the credit card companies' part) for me to express a preference to my clients for receiving payment by cash or check.
We make our clients pay the transaction fee (I think it's 4% for Amex, 3.5% for everyone else) if they want to pay by credit card. So far no one's balked. If they don't like it, they can always write us a check.
ETA: Congrats Sophia!
