I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

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.

Holy cow, this Ask a Manager update.

People like this exist in reality? It's like sitcom management. I would be a rotten manager, and I know better than this. Being snarky in-team is one thing, but directly contradicting the instructions from higher-ups because you know better?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Holy cow, this Ask a Manager update.

I KNOW.

A little girl named Sophia Marie. I love the name, although I don't know where the Italian influence came from, as we're pretty WASPy and his wife is First generation Chinese.

I was just going to say something about an old friend of mine who has a kid named Sophie, but the relevance is mixed up -- he's Italian American, but lives in China!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

And they put Stephen Miller in front of the White House press corp., and he basically trashed the Statue of Liberty? What is wrong with this day?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's August and everyone's brains are fried?

Thwarted AGAIN by the weather. The storms moving away changed direction. I haven't been able to swim since I got back.

Frowny face for sarameg not being able to swim.

Holy cow, this Ask a Manager update.

Wow. The only silver lining is that someone in her company fired her for her complete failure as a manager and questionable skill at being a humane human.
