'The Message'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Beth, I know some libraries have a form people can fill out to request that the library get a certain book or whatever (not that that guarantees they will, but it lets them know there is interest). Does your library have that?
Random news: so apparently 50 Cent was doing a concert in Angola (!!), and in the middle, some fan ripped the diamond necklace off him. I find that sad and awesome at the same time. (It was unclear from the reporting, but I don't think the fan go away, sadly)
we have the form, but this was one of those... I need this for school 'cause I don't want to read the book ...
One of the guys at work asked me if I'd heard about the Hannah Montana photo shoot. I went off on my little tirade about how if you pose for Annie Liebowitz you ought to know what to expect and then paused, "but wait, wasn't that Miley Cyrus?"
"uh-yeah. They're the same person."
doh!
When I'm working reception I usually say something like "If I see them I'll be sure and let them know you called."
I used to do that, but then sometimes they'd call me back and ask me if I'd seen them.
I know we covered this a couple weeks ago but I've forgotten. What do you say to someone who is quitting and you haven't enjoyed working with them, you're not going to miss them and you're not sorry to see them go?
"Good luck with that!"
The theatre equivalent of that call is when someone on stage, usually an actor, asks at some point in tech, when something is clearly wrong, like the stage being dark in the middle of a scene, or a sound cue playing way too loud, or a train playing in the middle of the ocean, "Is that's the way this is going to be?" It's very often a passive aggressive way of saying this is a mistake. About 99.99% of the time we know it's a mistake. I pretty much have one answer to this question now. I state it very loudly and clearly from the house and don't hesitate. My answer is, "Yes."
What do you say to someone who is quitting and you haven't enjoyed working with them, you're not going to miss them and you're not sorry to see them go?
"Good Riddance"? Oh, wait, that's inside voice.
"Your leaving is really going to change things around here!"
"Things just won't be the same without you."
What do you say to someone who is quitting and you haven't enjoyed working with them, you're not going to miss them and you're not sorry to see them go?
"You still here? I thought you were dead."
