Ooops, I just copied and pasted from the tech thread. Thanks, Hec, let me revise.
Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I just requested access for a clinical database. To set up my account, I provided the usual information. They also asked me to provide an initial password.
...Which they said I would be asked to change as soon I logged in for the first time.
What the fuck is the point of making me come up with a password if I'm just going to change it immediately? Why not just give me a dummy password when I sign up LIKE EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD?
Sometimes I don't understand people. (These same people decided to spring UAT on us today without any warning. And the edit checks I reviewed were atrocious.)
I am currently emailing someone named Morgan. Neither of us knows the other's gender! Hee.
I just went to KFC for lunch. They told me the last time I was there (which was about 3 weeks ago) they had forgotten to give me my corn on the cob, so they gave me a free one.
I had completely forgotten about it. Cool that they remembered.
Most of the Morgans I know are female, but my family skews that a bit because of giving the family name to a girl not born into it.
The problems I've been having with Facebook today make me worried about what "improvement" they are coming out with now.
For the record, today is the perfect summer day here. Not too hot, not too humid, nice and sunny.
Can I hate you?
tommy, how are you feeling in the wake of your encounter with an immovable object?

That is awesome.

I would guess female, too, but most people would guess male for Jesse, so who knows??
Can I hate you?
Hey, we had like three days of Way Too Hot!
.... yeah, OK, you can probably hate me.

Better, but still achy as hell and what-not. Am at work today.
I think I need one of those neck-brace things. (My neck hurts when I turn my head in certain ways, but that's just the muscles that hold the head up. If I hold my head with my hands and turn my head the same way, it doesn't hurt.)
Thanks for asking....
Ha. In other Emmy nomination news: the Old Spice commercial was nominated.
