Man, I always feel silly printing out a pdf so I can sign it, scan it, and e-mail the scan back.
Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
According to this article link Colbert will not be doing The Late Show in character and we can look forward to 8 more months of The Colbert Report.
I'm okay with both of those things.
I'm having kale salad with deviled duck eggs for lunch. I have a feeling that might be amusing to someone in some way, but I can't remember why...

That is exactly what my newest freelance gig is going to have me do: they email me PDFs of articles, I print them, mark my changes by hand, scan the marked-up articles, save them as PDFs, and email them back.
Yes, this is in a world in which Adobe Acrobat has a sticky-notes function with which I could note my changes. I don't even.

Ha, I haven't had to fax in a while, but yeah, I know i have had to do that.
My local coffee roaster is moving to Petaluma. Woes. For me, nice for Petaluma, I guess. They already have a lot of nice things, though, which is more or less why my ciffee roaster is moving, BUT STILL
