Giles ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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 always say "soda". I think I use BOO-tique, though I honestly don't think I've ever paid much attention. And I usually call ATMs "the cash machine".
And, my job is going through ANOTHER restructuring after we just went through one this past August. I'll just call that the suck.
I am looking at this one. They would both fit. [link]
Hmm. My paranoia that I'm on filter increaseth apace.
I say "BOO-tique" although I have vague memories of someone in my family saying "BOW-tique". It's weird that I got more unsure of it all the longer I thought of it.
kat, that is very much the suck. I'm sorry to hear it. My employer had reorgs in 2002, 2004 and right now. Sign of a healthy organization...NOT.
Ooh, space sake!
An association of Japanese firms based in Kochi Prefecture has started brewing sake from yeast they persuaded the Russians to send into space for 10 days in October on board the spacecraft Soyuz.
The result? Well, nobody knows yet--the sake goes on sale April 1, though tastings will start as early as mid-January.
"Terrestrial magnetism may have had an effect on the yeast while it was in orbit," said Sho Arimitsu, 48-year-old president of the Aki city-based Arimitsu Shuzojo Co., the first company in the association to begin making the new space sake. "I am excited about what it will taste like."
These pet strollers are blowing my mind.
Just make sure it closes up tight and cats can't wiggle out.
OK, so this random person just came into my office, talking on his cell (apparently to a family member) and sat down at officemate's desk. He's a coworker of officemate, but dude. Just rude. And weird.
"Terrestrial magnetism may have had an effect on the yeast while it was in orbit"
Sure....
I try not to be judgmental about people who don't have emergency guest coffee.
I'm from generations of (Brit) tea drinkers. I think there's an uncle on my mother's side who drinks instant. No emergency coffee in my place. However, I have 6 coffee shops less than a block from me, and I have been known to go and acquire for the extremely gronky.
No, he's talking to his girlfriend. Making arrangements for a date.
Excuse me while I boggle.
Are there people in Natter who don't hang out in Movies?
Just in case: Trailer for Snakes on a Plane
So amazingly awesome....
