I hate the way Brooke Sheilds is protrayed as the "loveable klutz" The first time you see her, she's dropping her bag and spilling stuff everywhere. She's always carrying a bunch of bags, which makes her seem scatterbrained and unorganized.

They did that on Suddenly Susan too. I suppose "klutzy" is the only thing they can come up with to try and giver her range beyong "utterly completely fucking stunning -- and emotes like a wood block"

Good luck or good fortune?

t evil laugh

so? you getting payed good?

Or at least will be?

I am paid very well compared to the rest of the world. It makes me feel better about how poorly I'm paid compared to everyone else I know personally.

edit: but my pay rates weren't on the list, just sub-management-level peeps.

They have a set of sessions that are all about science and technology and when an acquaintance who happens to be a furry found out that I used to be an Imagineer he asked if I would do a session about what it is like to work in the theme park design industry. For some strange reason they are fascinated by theme parks, who'd have thunk it.

Wow. That's absolutley - wow.

Furries. Not my beautiful cake, but fair play to them. It would indeed be fascinating to get to go along and take serious questions from a room full of people in moose suits and shark suits and cat suits and...actually, to be fair, I think I'd have a very hard time looking out over a sea of plush cartoon animals with their hands raised to ask me serious questions about science, and doing anything but giggling hysterically. (It's the juxtaposition that kills me.)

I wanted to go for the whole weekend because on friday night they had a 4 hour Dance Dance Revolution party. THAT must be something to watch.

::speechless::

Exactly. I just wanted to be in the room. Just wow.

You'd be the most vanilla and least fuzzy guy in the room.

There's one for the books.

Appropos of nothing: this is what I wore to work yesterday.

I heart my job.
