Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

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.

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

Is there nothing that duct tape can't fix?

Oddly enough, duct tape isn't very good at taping ducts. It dries out and loses its stickiness.

duct tape isn't very good at taping ducts.

Many building codes prohibit using duct tape on ducts these days.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Back from the interview where the recruiter seemed really excited about placing me and seemed to think my prospects were really good. ::crosses fingers::

Of course, they nearly all say that, since it comes with the job, but still I can use a little ego-boo, and realistically, if I want to get some resume credits for .NET developing, getting a bottom-rung position at a bottom-rung company may be the way to go.

Since I was done by 9 AM, I wandered over to the nearby Borders, where a friendly staffer helped me find the very last copy of the Pushing Daisies box set in the store. He made sure that I knew that Alan Ball was also responsible for other wonderful shows, so I told him their names and reassured him I not only knew about them, I already owned them.

(One week and one day until the season premiere!!!1!)

Obviously, duct tape technology needs to be improved.

Some conspiracy theorists have asserted that when the alien spacecraft crashed at Roswell, the US military managed to reverse-engineer alien duct tape technology. But since this is top-secret, only the most important military facilities have their ducts taped with alien duct tape.

Alan Ball? Don't you mean Bryan Fuller? Or was the staffer wrong?
