Remember, remember, the rants of November

shameface
Legally, she’s an adult.
An adult in culinary school (patisserie, but still)
An adult who also works at a restaurant.
:frowning:

Sorry, I have to echo your shameface - I thought you were talking about an eight year old.

Hmmm. I have (as has most of my entire department) been working at home for quite some time. BUT - I can still get back in the building. Maybe I could look around for you…we used to do LOTS of PP back in the day as well as laser pointing. And people don’t put stuff away in the no longer used conference rooms. And they’re slobs. And forgetful. And I can file off the serial number for you if you want. My husband IS, after all, a felon (well for traffic stuff, but STILL) and has a garage full of tools. Let me know if you want me to make the drive in. And Merry Christmas! :smiley:

I didn’t want to suffer alone.

Success!

Awesome, and just drop it down the chimney! When I hear something clinking its way down into the bowels of the furnace, I’ll assume that my Christmas gift has arrived and await the smell of smoldering plastic and micro-circuits in lieu of a boring old yule log :smiley:

Most my my stuff is hands-on, but I do miss being able to click-to-the-next from across the room.

As far as the laser pointer, I mostly just used that to shoot it the 60 feet across the room to show how tight the point remained. Good engineering; guess that’s why they’re so expensive.

Nice and short. Too bad we still have to wait a couple of hours here in Flyover Territory… anyone in Nova Scotia want to start a thread now?

This is going to such a busy month. Not only do we have the Mayan end of the world, I just learned that the third Prophy of Fatima says that the world, or maybe even the universe will black out for 3 days before the rapture happens and all of the rest of us will be left to rend our clothing and gnash our teeth. Or something.

I’m now spreading my own prophecy around. Back in 1968, there was a major snow storm that dropped 6 feet of snow on Prescott. After the snow, it rained and froze and almost every one died. (well, not really, but that’s how the story goes)

That happened on 12/12/68. And the oldtimers are telling folks that this winter is just like that one. And now its going to be 12/12/12. Such a protentous date will certainly have something monumental happening!

My ex-mininon is happily preaching my word :slight_smile:

My rant: you guys are probably so tired of reading about this, but if I suffer, everyone else gets to suffer. Moving sucks.

The stress is getting to both of us. Tonight I was reading a thrift store paperback. I put it face down on the end table and Bill scolded me about abusing books. When I told him that it was a 50 cent book with a billion copies, he told me that if I get in the habit of abusing cheap books, I might start abusing good books.

I dog-eared the page, then slammed the book down and got up to go powder my nose.

The outrage on Bill’s face was enough to make me grab the book, flex my arms and rip the book in half, then toss him the read half and tell him that if it mattered so much, he could have that half and I’d give him the other half when I was done.

I’ve never had sex on a ripped up book before…it was kinky fun :slight_smile:

But anyhow, moving just bites.

Nuthin’

Hey flatlined, thanks for putting that little movie in my head…

How can James Earl Jones and Emo Philips be the same species?
The infinite variety of nature astounds me.

I’m ready for it to stop raining now. I’d like to go for a walk please.

I don’t think those are the serial number(s) though. Mine clearly says S/N by the serial number (which is very easy to read BTW). Maybe your company should buy Lenovo mice (mouses, meeses, micii ?).

Hey, send it our way!! We desperately need it. It’d be nice to actually feel some rain for once. When it rained at the annual street dance this past summer, I just wandered around all over the place in it as it hadn’t rained in so long.
