[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
What msbelle said. At work we all have Brother P-touch label makers.
I might could look in to that. Newfangled technology to replace what the oldfangled technology did just fine. OK, I'm not really that cranky about technology. Clearly. I'm here via it. I still want a typewriter. Nostalgia.

Thank you. I could buy it myself, but it would never get approved here because if I had one, all the other AA's would want one. I might be able to spin it as a savings over the cost of a printer, though, since I really only want the printer to make labels!
Or you could hide it someplace and only bring it out when you want to print that one label (so you can in the darkness bind them?).
In re wireless ... several years ago someone got the bright idea to buy a bunch of wireless mouses for the office computers. The guy in charge (whose knowledge of technology was, to put it generously, sketchy) had an intern do the software install. All went well for a while. And then the screaming started. Literally. She hadn't read the instructions closely enough to realize that they had to be put on different channels. Especially in a closely packed open office. So one person would move their mouse and someone else's cursor would go running across their screen.
Good times.

That is hysterical!
Literally
edited because I CAN spell, dammit
So wouldn't this mean that you could change the channel your mouse is on and continue to wreak havoc?
Not dot matrix, really, but I do miss printers that just f*cking worked.
And what halcyon era was this? You may remember how the Jeff Goldblum character in Independence Day managed to make his laptop talk to an alien computer? At that point in the movie, I burst into hysterical laughter, because I had spent the entire day trying to get my work computer talk to a printer, and both my computer and printer were allegedly built by humans.
There are a bazillion dudes packing up my stuff. Also, I just walked in to see how it's going and one dude was wearing Shane's Mickey Mouse ears. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
How scary and exciting, GC. I have to say that my coast will be delighted to have you and your family.
Printers make me cry.
I hope the move goes well, GC!
My mom was thoroughly convinced the house where she grew up had a ghost in it. It lived in the basement, and her dog refused to go down there and would often bark at the basement doors.
