Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Jilli, are folks there excited that Gates is gonna be on The Daily Show tonight?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I haven't heard any excited mutterings, but I'm kinda reclusive at work, so I may be very far out of the loop.

Do people there generally like Gates? Proud of him? Indifferent? Fear him? Hate?

There is that. I'll just have to remember to hide the iPod before I go to the party/keynote speech thing.
Along those lines: at a birthday party this weekend, I was introduced to someone who said "Oh, I've heard about you! You're that goth girl who works at the Evil Empire! my cousin works there; he told me about seeing you around."

Vaguely proud with a side of "Huh", I think. Most of us worker bees are so far removed from him that he's just kinda like the weather to us.
