Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

I meant that last post for Meara, not Heather.

Not that I wouldn't want Heather to feel better, it's just that Meara said she was sick. Not that Meara said Heather was sick, rather than Meara said Meara was sick.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I just checked the standings and I'm up to 44, but still! Thanks, meara.

I would really like to see the Hogwarts IT department portrayed.

well, since I think that all computers are magic, anyway, I can't imagine that it looks that different from our IT department.

Heather and Meara are starting to look a lot alike. The words, I mean. The shape.

I think I need a nap.

Throat is no longer hurting, so I can now say with some certainty that advising meara did not result in contaigion.

All the incantations are much longer, boring, and have to be typed in. Wands are much more efficient.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Well, sure. But the firewalls have to be really impressive.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

This just in: using the "search" button on the clunky and lame home-brewed project tracking app causes the department server to go boom, both intranet and inter-

(I think this gets me out of some work for the afternoon)

Obviously, the solution to that is to rename the button from "search" to "make server go boom".
