One of my fellow grad students dropped a hot soldering iron in his lap while we were building cables years ago. I've never seen anyone leap out of a rolling chair so quickly in my life.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

My WH (wonderful husband) works for the power plants in our area. He spent 20 years at the nuclear plant as an operator. The annual physicals, drug testing, etc. were a regular part of his world.

It was the "rotating" part of plant shifts that looked so hellacious to me.

And Kirk never kicked a dude into a spaceship's engine.
this. didn't have the good lines or the delivery either.
Didn't get fingerprinted much after leaving the magnet school (advantage #345 of working from home often), but I did get asked on an application to teach for a Jesuit college how I was going to bring God into the classroom. For a web design course.
That was the application where I put 'sarcastic' down as my religion. Love those Jesuits. Still got the job.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Telnet.
No wonder. Telnet's not secure.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Really tough exams provoke fervent prayers for divine assistance.

Exactly, I mean God is kinda insecure what with the whole, "You shall have no other gods before me" thing.
