chikat -- if I had a car, I would.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You could try, but she'll practice on you first.
I'm willing to take a couple lumps in order to raise the fighting force for the next revolution.
Well, maybe the next revolution is a little too early. Two or three revolutions from now, though, I'll be totally set.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Argh. User called, said she couldn't send e-mail. I tried asking her if Outlook said "Offline" in the lower right hand corner. She asks "All I see is the clock." No, above that. In the Outlook window. "It says 'Office'." What? "The only thing I can see says 'Office'." So I talk her through letting my remote into her PC. Sure enough, Outlook has a big red X in the lower right hand corner and says "Offline". I move the cursor over it and tell her 'This is what I was talking about.' "Right" she replies. "It says 'Office'."
Apparently basic literacy is not a required job skill in health care.
Though slightly less frustrating from the user with an attitude that called yesterday in a very exasperated tone of voice to tell me that her computer wasn't working and she couldn't log into it. After talking to her for a minute I determined that one of her applications was simply running slow. How this equates to "I can't login to my computer", I have no friggin' clue.
Just, argh.
ETA: Feel free to have Em headbutt both of them (the users, that is) if you'd like, Aimee.

Leif is into headbutting too. His head is like a little bowling ball, so it's pretty effective.

Way back when, when I did computer support I had a call about a printer that wouldn't work. I got down to the printer and discovered that it wouldn't power up. I traced the plug back to a power strip. I traced the power strip to an extension cord. I traced the extension cord back to the same power strip.
