Happy Birthday, Calli!!

Happy Birthday, Burrell!!

Lovely pictures, Tom.

And now, from the files of A Day Late and a Dollar Short:

My DH is KG6PCM, but he uses it only for hang gliding

This goes back a bit, but... what is the connection between a HAM radio license and hang gliding?

Nukes freaked me out as a child

They didn't freak me out, because I thought mutually assured destruction was a logical deterrent (I did not think of it in those words). Then I grew up and realized that the world is chock full of whackaloons in high places (and low places, and medium ones), and it is no longer even remotely reassuring.

edited because The Day After is not exactly the same as The Morning After.

Heh.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I sometimes call on another line

I have no other line. I called back using a different number, and apparently the person I want is at lunch. I wonder if they would have just left me on hold until she came back from lunch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OMG, you weren't in a queue? My advice was way wrong, then, Dana.

Happy birthday to Burrell and Calli!

Nope. Placed on hold by an actual person. No musak or anything.

Art Crawl!!!

She put you on hold and then went to lunch?

Wow.

That's just. . . so incredibly rude.

Ground/Air communication at sites where your driver or other pilots can lose visual contact. There are frequencies set aside specifically for hang gliders, paragliders, balloonists, etc.

Happy Birthday Burrell and Calli!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

They didn't freak me out, because I thought mutually assured destruction was a logical deterrent (I did not think of it in those words). Then I grew up and realized that the world is chock full of whackaloons in high places (and low places, and medium ones), and it is no longer even remotely reassuring.

Jen is me.

And not just in the literal way.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Random question:

Has anyone ever heard the word 'stack' used as a slang term for a penis?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Has anyone ever heard the word 'stack' used as a slang term for a penis?

um, no. Although now I am thinking that "short stack" could be used for a small penis...

Happy Birthday Burrell!

Happy Birthday Calli!

I think today was a Monday v. 2.0 instead of Thursday—walked into the office and was greeted with a crisis first thing. Ah well, it's essentially solved now.
