Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Glad to hear sumi is OK. What a scary-ass situation.
ION, it's half an hour before most anyone else gets in the office. Isn't that a little early to let the chimpanzees loose in the restroom?

I read that as Work Freak, and it made me laugh trying to figure out what the premise was.

Still sending good thoughts your and your campus's direction, Sumi.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
That IO Cable commercial is SO ODD. It is on during Ellen everyday and so I see it on FF and I feel so bad for the people wearing those crazyass costumes.
We had a good morning at the belle household, which is better than the rest of the week, so I am feeling positive about the world.

Hi everyone! I'm sorry I didn't log on last night. . . um, I tried but I managed to completely forget that my modum wasn't actually hooked up to the phone.
(I have a splitter but I've put tivo on one side and had the phone on the other and it took me until I woke up this morning to figure out why I couldn't log on. . .)
Yeah, thoroughly weird yesterday. Left the office and there were helicopters hovering over campus like giant mosquitos. And then NIU was on Anderson Cooper 360. Bizarre.
And the news broke into and RUINED the beginning of SPN with a Press Conference. (The Uni Pres looked like a wreck.) How the heck am I supposed to escape when reality breaks into my escapist tv???

There is a 7th fatality and it looks like another press conference at 9 am (in half an hour) and the local hospital is going to have one at 11.

Dear People:
If you keep changing the agenda, tell me to videocon in at 9 in an email, verbally confirm with me 9 am the day before, do NOT go looking for me at 8:30. I don't care if you are 5 hours ahead. You have a European vacation. I just have to get up earlier. No love,
Me
Also, would it KILL the xxx team to tell me they decided not to deliver 8x the data, but rather something smaller BEFORE the told our partners? Gee, thanks for making me look like an idiot.
