Oh, that's terrible. Ugh!

You'd never seen the dead parrot sketch????!!!!!!?

Pssst, Scrappy. She's younger than us. She was still in diapers when that sketch happened.

My new title should have an element of liaision or something like that, while still somehow allowing for my HR functions. My suggestion was Communication Coordinator,

No. See, titles are a part of your ongoing career. So if you left this job and that was on your resume it wouldn't have much pull. This is why it was important for me to move form HR Admin to HR Analyst.

but the execs felt it was too dull. The DH suggested Ombudsman, but that might be too technical. Any suggestions?

Not Ombudsman either. That's a very specific role, which mostly has to do with being the liaison with the general public.

What's your current title? Does it have Manager or Director in it?

Pssst, Scrappy. She's younger than us. She was still in diapers when that sketch happened.

Please -- we have the internet now. My coworker who practically fell on the floor laughing just thinking about it is well younger than me.

I caught Owen looking up Paul Lind on IMDB. He asked me what I liked best about Bewitched. WTF? How is he finding out about this shit?

Samantha is the correct answer to that question, Owen! Unless it's Endora.

He might have seen it on TVLand lately.

You'd never seen the dead parrot sketch????!!!!!!?

I had never seen John Cleese and Michael Palin perform the Dead Parrot Sketch until I moved in with Daniel, and we got a bunch of MP videos from the library.

ETA: By which I mean I'd already heard it from friends. Also, I had the lyrics to the Lumberjack Song down pat long before seeing MP go at it themselves. There's also a "Redundancy Lessons" sketch in my memory banks, that I've never actually seen MP doing, and I sometimes wonder if it were an improvisation in the style of, rather than an actual MP sketch.

I went with Samantha's nose twitch. Adorable.

Cute story from the cub scout camp out:

The other moms and I we settling in our cabin--right next door to the youngest scouts (including Owen). I heard their den leader go over to quiet them down and then heard singing.

I found out the next morning that his son had asked for a lullaby and so he sang a song for them! So. Freakin'. Cute.

A friend in NY recently got hit by train, he passed out on the platform and fell such that his leg got hit. Luckily the leg was able to be saved, but he has months of surgeries ahead.

Also never seen dead parrot, seen very little of MP actually.

Love Bewitched, LOVE Paul Lind.

Completely related to everything before it: a gay porn actor on gay-for-pay. I know it's not really sexy behind the scenes, but damn. I had thought the tops were some sort of machines, but no, not really. Let me not speak of the horrors of being a bottom.

Yes, that's where ita's been for the past fifteen minutes. No, it's not safe for work.

I didn't get into Monty Python until university--I left the room when it came on TV when I lived in England because I hated the credit animations so much.

Oops?
