Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And if you have a funnelweb in Melbourne, then clearly it was premeditated.
The spider was explicitly identified by the coroner as a Sydney funnelweb, and everyone went "Yup, murder." Later, Phrynne finds another scary looking spider in her room, but it's pointed out that it's "just" a trapdoor spider. She's not impressed.
Yeah, I kind of feel like if you're 90 and retired in 1991, maybe you never had to do much with computers. But even then, my dad was having to use one at work (even if he likely was just word processing. He did not have any sort of tech job). So...if you have been in the workforce at all in the past 25 years, you've had to use a computer, especially if you have a white collar type job. You may not be great with them, but you really can't be like "oh, I just don't get them I'm too old" if you're 60. That means you have been working with a computer since you were 35. Please.
I'm not seeing so much billowing smoke, so maybe it is out. I would like a reassuring notice from the city, though.
Please.
At least it's been a long time since I had anyone try "Oh, I'm just a woman, I don't know these things." Really. Probably about 15 years ago. I said, very flatly, "I'm a woman," which more people didn't realize back then. She said "Oh" very quietly and stopped trying to justify why she didn't know what was going on.
Yipes -t, I hope you get the all clear soon. I remember when there was a big fire in Irvine when I lived there and we had to watch the approaching fire line and decide if we wanted to stay put or head out. Ultimately we decided to go up to my folks house for the night just to get a good night's sleep.
Thanks, Burrell. Never did get any notification, couldn't even find a tweet, but I am pretty sure it's out now. That was a fuckload of smoke for a while, there, but that's clearing up.
I started to get disgusted by suspicious little black dots all over my new ceramic pan until I recalled that I heated up some everything bagels in it Sunday.
Ack, a friend just messaged me about talking to a friend of hers who was offered a position. In which I was on the hiring committee. So, yeah, no, though I'd really like to have that discussion in generalities soon. Especially because I suspect the perspective she'd offer is quite different from mine based on the different teams we work with. Hers is kinda fucked up politically. I can probably go as far as pointing that out to her, but beyond that, I can't really say more than I would in front of the rest of the committee. Now we are a pretty frank bunch and l think we put out the most challenging stuff, to the candidates, so....
Wait. Y'all. I was ON THE HIRING COMMITTEE. I didn't have it when it happened but I guess my day old new title promotion is worth some shit. Besides money.
Nice, sarameg
