I'm with that, Anne. I was so crazy all weekend that I don't feel like I *had* a weekend!
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Indeed. If mine could come pre-stocked w/ a 10th Doctor and/or Capt. Jack, so much the better.

Can we rewind and have it be Sunday morning again?
that would be so nice. blarg.
ooops for the mash-up omnis! And thank you for the brainpic of a bunch of people with bee-hive hairdos-of-stupid. I was thinking of dumb spray only as a repellent (like bug spray) - wowee, it has so many potential uses.
the [nonprofit] just forked out some bucks to the company that has supplied their community data systems for 14 years for a little tiny piece of code that spits out xml for me. should have taken a week to roll out - it took four months. It could have been written in any script - it's in .net. And it looks like half of the data that should be accessible isn't. Their user guide (which they were working on until COB Friday) is so full of typos I can't tell which table I'm pulling from about a third of the time. I have to spend a bunch of time this morning sorting through the documentation to see what is missing that will be a huge pain later. And we paid for this. Problem is that data-company and data-company's evil sibling have a lock on this corner of the market. So they don't have to do things right. And they specialize in selling vapor. (And, possibly, dumb spray.)

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Sox, that sounds... wow. and Ugh. No recourse, either, for all their mistakes? Dang.
Also, thanks for the wishes! I leave tomorrow, and am excited. Hope to have finished hacking up a lung before getting on the plane though. Stoopid immune system working against me.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Serena Yen, a member of the 24 Hour Fitness gym in Houston complained to KTRK-TV in July that she had been inadvertently shut inside recently at about midnight while using an upstairs exercise machine, when employees locked up for the night. A spokesman at the company's headquarters said that "24 Hour" does not refer to the hours of operation. [KTRK-TV (Houston), 7-17-07]
