The people helping Kate Holmes lose all that pesky preggers fat. How..niche.

bon, some kravvers carry Ogio locker bags. I'm not sure why, since a gym bag that fits in a locker doesn't fit all the gear we need. I think it's mostly instructors who don't get all hands on during teaching.

Still a little big...I need something that carries well, since I walk on a crowded street for about 8 blocks to the gym. And then something collapsible so it can get stuffed into the locker. I just can't believe that Lucy, say, is not on this; and that the items that appear to be recommended by what comes up on google are no longer for sale. What happened to the Timbuk2 yoga bag, for example?!

Charles Barkley is an ass.

I've heard terrible things about him but I still find him so charismatic.

Oh, man. That's kind of great, in a fucked-up way. Not the laid off part, of course. That part sucks. But I have an irrational love of "What are you going to do, FIRE ME??"

Totally. At least she's laughing now.

Man, I'm dealing with some bad attitudes. Someone has described an error message (access denied; data is protected) as snitty.

No, sugar. That ain't snitty. Snitty would be Can't you read the directions? This data is protected. If you are suppose to be able to access it, maybe you should follow the directions posted in ELEVENTYMILLION PLACES and get the permissions set on your account. Good grief.

That's priceless, Sara. Wow.

Of course, we have a user here who has had a problem logging into her computer every morning this week due to combination of forgetting her password and fat-fingering it and has copping an attitude with us over her deficiencies.

This should slide into a locker, plus has a hand or shoulder strap for carrying. I'm not sure what qualifies as travels well, but here is a more traditional bag, yet smaller than your average duffel.

What are you carrying?

It's bizarre.

Though I did have an oh fuck no they didn't moment until I'd verified the message was benign. Years ago, I had to sternly lecture the developers that Jack A. Hole was not an appropriate name placeholder in the software that printed the media labels. Which, if the fields were left blank or an error occurred, were actually printed as such and sent.

I had a boss that'd freak out if someone else logged into her machine and the login box displayed their network ID instead of hers of a morning.

So, if you did any tech support on her box, you had to erase your name from the ID box and put hers back in. Either she'd come screaming right to you if you didn't, or she'd type in her password three times and lock your ID out. And then come screaming to you.

She'd never, even if she noticed it first, replace your ID with hers.

TAR: did we not discuss TAR here? I would think that the Hippies are the luckiest people ever except that one of them was caught on a non-elim round wearing shorts and no shoes. What happens if they go to Iceland? Also, Yolanda and Ray were very cute -- I'm glad that they pulled themselves together and won the leg! I LOVED the mad footrace at the end. Doesn't happen often enough. And the frats attempt at conniving and the way that it backfired on them.

Alias - yes that had to be one of the worst product placements ever. . . the other REALLY BAD product placement that pops into mind was also on Alias when Sydney and somebody (Sark?) were going somewhere and they need to grab a vehicle and instead of saying, "Just grab that pick-up" -- she said the specific name of the vehicle. I can't recall what it was -- but I think that ita can.

Is it wrong that I find this funny, if inapporpriate.

We have a lot of users who do this, but replace the screaming with bewilderment. Of course, it doesn't help that the login prompt saves the last username to fully login, rather than typed, so unless we know the user's password (which we're not supposed to, but happens sometimes anyway) we couldn't put their username back in if we wanted to.
