He has no honor.

Actually, it would be intersting to see a break down like that on my NIFSTD at the six month mark.

Yeah. They were done by hand. I clicked on the “sort by number of replies” button and then clicked on the link that shows how many posts each person has made in each thread and then added them all with a calculator.

NIFSTD already has an automatic logging program that tells each active member’s overall post count, **NCB**.

I got a callback today for that job mentioned earlier in this thread and I’ve got it. Whoo! It only lasts one and a half weeks but that’s about $500.

The Great Bird of the Galaxy might not hate me after all. 😃

No. No thread up yet.

And no beer either. I can’t stand the stuff so I sure am not buying it for you. 😛

No problem. 🙂

By the way, I \*finally \* got your Enterprise calendar that you sent me however many months ago. At least I assume it was you that sent it.

What the Hell, my Northern friend? Beer and pie?  
Yuck.  
Unless rather than beer and pecan pie it is a British sort of pie, a meat pastie or whatever. In which case it is’nt yuck, but no thanks to the pie.

And Aes, no problem about not liking beer. We will drink yours for you.

If it’s a meat pie, there’s no telling what might be in there. Moose, squirrel, malamute, Inuit… there’s no telling with those crazy Canadians.

And you can have my beer if you trade me some jager or tequila for it.

You’re a good friend and all but I don’t like you quite like that, man. Your worm is safe.

Coulda been. Coulda been **tarragon918** , too. Yes, I’m writing fragments. Don’t care. Late. Punchy. Goo.

Good for you, **Aes**. And it might only be a week and a half but if they like your work, you may get more out of it . That’s how I got the contract job I have now. They liked my previous work, so they brought me back.

I don’t see how one is related to the other. He didn’t say that you had to buy beer and drink it. He said that you could buy beer for us. But you can get yourself some tequila while you’re at it. Just get the good stuff in case we decide to share it with you (most cheap booze isn’t very good, but cheap tequila is _nasty_).

Huh. Well, thanks to whomever sent it. I love the Hoshi month. 😃

And thanks for the pep talk, Linus. I just hope I can survive the day… I’ve only had three hours’ sleep. This is going to be a long shift.

_The Power of Positive Thinking_, by I.M. Kirok

Page 327, paragraph 3:

> [@](#):

> When entering any new environment, whether it be school, job changes, or sexual conquests, it is important to remember that most humans resent superior beings, no matter how benevolent or condescending you may be. Try not to display any super powers or hyper intelligence. Don’t fart on people and NO disintegration.

There was no farting or disintegration.

I did manage to have lunch with a really cute girl though. If nothing else, that makes the sleep deprivation worth it. 😃

You lucky kids. At my age, when I get to have lunch with a really cute girl, I get reported for sexual harassment.
