A team of American-led divers has discovered a new crustacean in the South Pacific that resembles a lobster and is covered with what looks like silky, blond fur, French researchers said Tuesday.

There is no mention in the article of whether or not it tastes good if you boil it and dip the meat in butter.

Or if it's a natural blonde....

Streetlights down Patterson still have power, but the neighborhood is OUT. I can actually see the big dipper. I don't know that I've seen it before. Off to check the BGE website to see how widespread this is.

Dear God. I just agreed to a blind double date. What the hell was I thinking?

consuela - you need a brownie, or three

BGE tells me 11:40 ETA. Which means if I go to bed and they are not being optimistic and even if they are, a blaring tv will wake me back up. Uhg. (I'd try to unplug it, but that really hard without, you know, electric LIGHT. It's way behind the books and snarled with eightmillion other plugs.)

And of course, now I want to read.

Dear God. I just agreed to a blind double date. What the hell was I thinking?

At least you'll have a buddy?

House: I never thought I'd see a show where the leading character, who I really like, getting hit in the balls made me cheer.

I said synopsis (OK, recap) NOT teasers!

You want to further develop your customer service skills. You want to advance using your organizational, systems development, problem solving skills, and be in a position to increase the understanding of multiple departments working together toward a common goal within the organization. You would like to develop your skills in delegation and management of others on specific projects.

I love msbelle.

And I, too, got the career question during my performance review. I'm like "Dude. I like this job (OK, not every bit of it, but there's always paperwork, man). I like the people I work with. I get paid a decent amount (though you're welcome to pay me more). My career plan is to win the lottery. Do we need to go into it more than that??"

But it seems that the 'right' answer is either "in your job" or "working somewhere else." There are only so many spots between where you're standing now and your boss's job.

NO kidding. And while I don't actually want my boss' job, exactly, that doesn't mean I don't want more...and it doesn't mean I want to be stuck in my current job forever while all my coworkers get promoted above me and stay in this job for the rest of my LIFE! HOWEVER, there are 3 spots for my manager's job. There are approximately six people ahead of me for those jobs, even assuming one should open up AND they hire from within. SOooo...it's not really a worry, is it now??

Whenever anybody asks me about my five year plan, I start giving grandiose speeches about how collectivisation will boost steel and grain production 11% year on year.

Hee. Tom rocks.

That coupled with a new hire here at work that was born in Sept of 1978? OUCH

Dude. That's not even that young. College students graduating in a few months were a lot of them born in 1985.

They did not put PSYCHIC in my job description, jackhole

I was yelling this at one point today. Argh.

Meanwhile, I am annoyed cause I was trying to do laundry and go to bed at a decent hour, but instead, people were hogging all the machines. Jackholes.
