You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poor sick Lori!

I would like to go home, too.

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

1. Sue, congrats!

2. Lori, of the suck.

3. A wee human in training! Babies make me have the dumbest epiphanies, but since they include cute babies I don't sweat it too much.

4. I need to clear my head well enough to be coherent in a work con call in ten minutes.

SCREWED.

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Send Dana home.

Love,

The associate across the hall just kind of implied that the fact that I couldn't get a lower court opinion issued within the last week from the FRIGGING BAHAMAS meant I wasn't very good at my job.

I vote you steal his/her credit card, buy yourself a ticket to the Bahamas with it, and send him his lower court opinion from the beach.

ita and lori feel better.

Sue, congratulations on the new job! Don't do all that old job work... it's not like they'll fire you.

A prediction on future food from 1958: Closer Than We Think! Fat Plants and Meat Beets (1958)

There will be less grazing land in tomorrow's crowded world, so beefsteaks may have to be replaced by extracted vegetable proteins flavored with synthetics that taste like real meat.

According to Cal Tech biologist James Bonner, new varieties of plants, rich in fats and edible proteins will be developed. Interest in this idea is already evidenced at the Michigan Agricultural Board where plans for a "phytotron" - or ultra-controlled greenhouse - are under way. This equipment will facilitate the study of plant characteristics - and show how to modify them.

Bonner also predicted at a recent Seagram scientific symposium that future farms could be operated by tapes fed through master control panels.
