Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

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 think your brainstorm should be "hire more people. Do the &*^#! work. No 6 pm meetings."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

6pm meeting is the suck. I'm preemptively annoyed about the meeting I have on Thursday in deepest New Jersey at 4:30, but at least I had prior warning!

I think you have to provide alcohol at my workplace if you schedule a meeting after 4:30 that doesn't involve the mission crashing and burning. There are a lot of staff who leave at 4 or earlier, having arrived before dawn.

A 6pm meeting is ridiculous. I thought the CIO's 4:30pm on Friday meetings were bad.

ION, one of our directors brought in a bunch of chocolate bars. It was bad enough that I had the first one, but then I had to go get a second a couple hours later. Oy. I wish I dealt with stress in ways that didn't involve eating crap.

IOON, the Mythbusters' latest movie myth special was good stuff. I got an inordanite amount of glee out of watching a real sword cleave a stainless steel replica clean through.

ETA: Well, crappity. Kodak changed the terms of service for their on-line galleries. Now you have to buy something from them once a year or they'll delete your pictures. Is not enough I have one of their stupid cameras?

I *just* realized why one of the tech's at the vet's office looks so familiar: she bears a passing resemblence to Abby on NCIS. Same hair, coloring, personal style, chirpy warm personality.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

6:00 meetings should definitely include alcohol, for those who choose it.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Kalshane - buy the archival CD of all your images - then start up with a new image hosting place.

AM home. Meeting was 2 hours.

I've already got them all on my PC still. Just annoyed by having to re-upload them some place else. I mean, I know it's a business and they're trying to make money, but I'm just "Dude, I have one of your cameras. I'm already a customer. Why screw me over?"

But maybe I have an over-developed sense of entitlement.

Where are all the cool kids getting their pictures hosted these days anyway?

That's so lame. {queue chanting headbangers}
