Okay, even freakier is that she looks like a sexed-up Julie Kavner.

Wow, she really does!

blocked at work. boo.

I probably didn't need that picture in my mental photo developer. Buffistas - Able to give you nightmares about links even if you don't click on the link.

Can we please ff to Friday? I need another weekend.

So, what, come the apocalypse, all the kosher Jews are screwed?

There's an overriding commandment to keep yourself (and your family) alive and healthy even if it means breaking other commandments (kashrut & the Sabbath usually being the first to go), so during an apocalypse hunting would be okay if it kept your family from starving. (Similar to how Jews operated in concentration camps during the Holocaust - the Nazis were not big on providing kosher meals at Auschwitz.)

An engineer, Hines said he was inspired to create the robot after a friend died in the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.

Oh, well that makes it much less creepy then. No wait, I mean that makes it much more creepy.

One of the people in this client org chart I'm looking at is named Leafy Quakenbush. Seriously?

-t, was this in California? I'm asking cause I remember hearing that abalone can only be taken by free diving and I think that it's cool.

Kat, yeah, it was California, up by Fort Ross, and free diving. My dad had gone abalone diving all my life, but I never tried it until we took a scuba class together. you can't so much sight-see with the free diving, obviously, but you also aren't carrying pounds of equipment on your back going in and out of the water. Bobbing around with just the wetsuit and weightbelt in between dives is pretty fun on its own. I practiced and practiced prying abalone off of rocks with the tool but ended up just being an extra license and a bag carrier for the more experienced divers. Still fun, though. And, of course, delicious.

Stormtroopers are comedy gold.

The info number I just called at a hospital for getting info on evalution services? It's a recording and answering machine. The department returns call on Friday. ONLY. really?!?

Now to call two more hospitals. not optomistic.

On a weekly conference call and half the folks haven't called in. Seeing as there are only 4 of us in the meeting, it is kinda odd. Love Monday mornings (heavy, dripping sarcasm font).

Stormtroopers are comedy gold.

Now I wanna see Waiting for Godot with Vladimir and Estragon as Stormtroopers. Of course, it would be called Waiting for Vader.

My mother taught me a very important lesson when I was about 10 or 11: if there is something you don't want to do, never learn how to do it and you will never have to. This was taught to me in the context of cleaning fish (which my mom has never learned to do) and I carried over into other areas of my life.

I believe my cow-orker practices this regularly at work.

IOworkN, it looks like even though our division is up 10+%, our group did not make it numbers (yet again), so it looks like even the small bonus I was hoping for will not come through. On the upside, this means I could leave at any point, since I'm not going to lose a bonus by doing so. Yay?
