Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm taking an ice cream break. I suggest others do the same.
This sounds like an excellent idea!

I sent the skeeeery email.

To date, we have spent 24 (not sure why I was being coy with this number when I left the rest in) hours working on the Web site for [you]. In the initial estimate, we anticipated spending 4–8 hours on the project.

If we are going to talk tomorrow about changing the design again, we will need to add a Change Order to the job.

I am anticipating that we will require an additional .5 hour of meeting time and an additional 1.5 hours of production time and have prepared a Change Order (see attached) to this effect.

I think I have earned ice cream.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

2. Only (in my estimation) the last (4th) one was properly funny.

I agree. They did a lot better once they had an original script.

As Calli guessed, I was thinking of Jack Davenport, but the other guy (Patrick?) would be good too.

Bec always thought that Richard Coyle was very hot.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Now I want ice cream and a nap. Instead, I need to head off to work.

If I only had a brain...

What a new, improved GOP New Orleans might look like is hard to say. If I had to guess, I'd predict it would resemble the old city about as much as the New Orleans Square exhibit at Disneyland -- except with fewer black people on the street. Of course, a humid, polluted metropolis that combines the innovative urban planning of Sugarland, Texas with the vibrant, multiethnic culture of Greenwich, Conn. might not be quite as big of a tourist draw.

My work is getting real frustrating right now. I am doing a bunch of stuff for the first time and I feel really lost and I want my boss to sit and go through it with me, but he is in a meeting and having to cover some work that needs doing for a designer that is out today. ANYHOO, the frustration is pointing me in the direction of wanting to pick a fight, EVEN after the ice cream break (on which I got to accompany 2 darling children of a co-worker). ok, my point is EAT IT! (directed at anyone, but if memory serves Steph, bon bon, Jesse, Perkins, the pesky Canadians, and of course ita - are good targets).

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The whole U.? Can you call my boss and tell him to EAT IT?? That would rock.

Prolly not, that might be bad for client relations. But would the U refer to itself as "the School"? I'm writing a memo to them about options and don't want to write the whole name out all the time.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Block the bitches.
