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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I didn't mean that the thread should be killed.

Gently pokes thread with a stick

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So if you kill them you move up in rank then, right?

He just left.

Now, surely, if I always leave early, I can leave even earlier today? This is prompted in large part by me working through lunch, and, well, I'm lazy and headachey and have nothing to do.

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

I am officially the last person on the floor. I'm waiting for one (nonwork but using work equipment) thing to finish encoding, and then I am GONE.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Alas for no early release here. At least I have vaguely interesting work to do for the rest of the afternoon.

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

So I get Monday off. I totally did not know.

Didn't you say you were working Sunday?

I am bored. Work is boring me, the internet is boring me, and while boring is one of my goals these days, I find that comfortable goes very well with bored, and I'm not very that.

I will be in for an hour on Sunday morning, yes.

ita, you should go home, lay down in the cuddle, have some tea, and watch pretty boys on tv.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

ita, I think the coast is clear.

Getting Monday off was also a surprise to me. But I already filled it up again since I'm going to work at Down Home Music doing inventory for barter.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Not to reopen old wounds, but... from a Seattle Times staff columnist:

As I look back at the year in news, it's clear I should have focused more on people having sex with horses.

That's the conclusion I reach after reviewing a new list of the year's top local news stories. Only this list is not the usual tedious recounting by news editors or pundits who profess to speak for you readers. This is the people's-choice list.

It's not a survey of what news you say you read.

It's what you actually read.

By tallying clicks on our Web site, we now chart the most read stories in the online edition of The Seattle Times. Software then sorts the tens of thousands of stories for 2005 and ranks them. Not by importance, impact or poetic lyricism, but by which stories compelled the most people to put finger to mouse, click, open and, presumably, read.

Which brings me back to sex with horses. The story last summer about the man who died from a perforated colon while having sex with a horse in Enumclaw was by far the year's most read article.

The rest of the article is pretty interesting and funny....
