Pie Day? PIE DAY? I gotta get me some of that action.
Pie? Day?
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That's something I've never understood - if someone isn't harassing someone else and doesn't plan to have anything to do with them, why do they object to the restraining order? and why are courts so reluctant to grant them?
People sometimes object to the restraining order even when innocent because it affects their lives. If, for example, you live in the same neighborhood, you might run into the restrainer in the grocery store or at the gym. If the order is bogus, the person might use the restraining order to have you hassled. Also, there is a record of having a restraining order filed, even if it is eventually lifted.

And what's with all the carrots?
Previous Holiday parties consisted of dinner and drinks and the highlight for the evening was handing out gift certificates. This year we decided to shake things up a bit, so we are having a rockin party complete with rock band, food, and beverages of every flavor (except maybe Green Pea from Jones). The prizes are a fooseball table, kickboxing center, portable dvd player, etc. Of course, some people complained (because change is bad!), but the majority of the 40-some workers are enthusiatic.

my law firm had a no guests policy. Whatever, I didn't have a boyfriend and the shrimp were as big as my fingers. University parties are weird. I've been to the President's party, very chi chi and networky, and I've been to cheesy departmental potlucks. I hate potlucks. There's always some guy who shows up with a 2 liter, while the women are looked down upon if they don't make something. I love to cook, so that's not a problem, it's just the Principle.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Vortex is me with regard to potlucks. I can't abide them.
Our office went from having the holiday party at Morton's to a catered reception at the VP's house, to a potluck supplemented by an open house at the VP's last year. No word on where or when this year's is.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Our x-mas party is in the office on a Friday right after work this year, which is better than our usual dinner at a nice restaurant because it'll be much easier to swill a few drinks, eat some food, and get the hell out.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
P-C, is your account still active? If the notice you got was just a warning, I'd say lie low for a while.
Yeah, my account is still active. It was just a warning. I'm not going to ahem anything for a month or so, just to be safe. I know exactly why I got noticed (I doubled my active seeds and left it on overnight, and apparently NBC is cracking down these days), so I know to be more careful. Thanks.

School question:
Next quarter there is a class that I would absolutely take except...it's being taught by someone I know and don't really care for. She is co-teaching with someone I don't know. Would you take it anyway because it's a class totally geared for you, or would you not due to the annoying professor?
