Apparently we're all born as lawyers.

Or children. The greatest arguers of semantics until we beat it out of them. Those on whom it doesn't take, become lawyers.

Twins win in 12! Detroit is out. Wow, the Tigers blew a three game lead in the last four games. The Twins had to go 17-4 to catch them. It was the only pennant race this year but that's a doozy.

Happy birthday Sail

I'm just hoping Aims dances for us at the next F2f

and children are mind bogglingly literal . My current rule statement at the library "no punching, kicking , wrestling, poking, touching, hitting in the library!"I think it covers most all forms of physical altercation

Aims, just, wow. Maybe no one's ever explained the difference between funny and mean to her? Geez.

Epic is charitable. Though she may be onto something.

Aimee, I used to work with someone like this. Over time, it came to me (through listening between the lines of her conversation) that her family bagged on each other mercilessly as a way of connecting. Notice I didn't say loving. Just the only way they knew to speak to each other.

After a particularly inappropriate comment about my wardrobe (again), I turned to her and said, "When the people in my family said stuff like that, they meant it. [insert withering stare here] I sure hope you don't." [insert powerwalk down the hall and away here]

It worked.

In my experience, trying to get back at someone on their level never really works. Except for its recreational smiting opportunities, which I sometimes endorse...especially the high quality smiting found here.

Shir, I'm sorry your sister is having such a rough time physically. And I'm sorry she feels not quite up to facing life outside the IDF. Much ~ma for her safety, and for peace for all of your family.

I have one (and maybe even THREE should I please them) day of work tomorrow with a particularly notorious attorney. Am I sleeping? Lands no.

Yeah, originally they wanted someone for three days. Then they said they'd try someone out for one day and decide if they'd ask them back for the next two. Seriously? This is how the world wound up with unions, people. I cannot wait for the economy to perk up a bit so the more absurd abuses of the underlings can ease off a bit.

Notorious how?

Oy.

Just had to share this link. [link] It is a "crystal rubber ducky hand cooler." It is $250.

He has a reputation for being a bit of a blowhard diva publicity hound.

Hopefully I'll not be working for him directly.

Insent to profile addy, hil.
