I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Happy birthday, Kate!

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

15 famous freaky ghost pictures

This is sorta' the same thing as UFOs - with so many people these days having cameras, camera phones, camcorders etc. you'd think there'd be a lot more photos of UFOs and ghosts now than in the past. (That's if one assumes ghosts and UFOs are real.) Maybe ghosts don't appear in digital photos?

Anyway, these photos (mostly very old) are still cool....

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Those are cool. I love shit like that.

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

Maybe ghosts don't appear in digital photos?

I think global warming is killing the ghosts and UFOs.

Happy Birthday Kate!

Come to find out, several of my junior coworkers worry about what they are having for lunch every day because they don't want to hear about it from our boss. Seriously??

Oh, see in that situation I'd have been pink-slipped pretty quickly after grabbing the boss by the shoulders and shouting "Mom? Mom, why are you possessing my boss? Go home and obsess about what Dad and your cat are eating!"

There was another way this day could be more annoying. It came to pass.

No word yet on data recovery. System is still coming back up.

Today we're taking a server I helped build and using it to replace another server that's used pretty heavily by our big client. So at 5:00 we're doing the switchover. If all is well I can go home then, if not, I get to stay late and fix it.

Anyone wanna lay odds on me having to stay late?

(Well, if I do have to stay late there's a good chance it'll be my fault. Somehow, that makes me less annoyed at the possibility of working late.)

Coding and Sleeping

I've been to that place in San Antonio. Yes your car will roll off the tracks, this is because you are going downhill. It looks level, but it isn't. If you check it out carefully, pour water on the road and such, it's pretty easy to see that looking level is an illusion.
