Lunch time tithe... Blizzard forecast for later today; here's hoping it'll start around 4 o'clock, when I'm home.

Was just commenting to someone yesterday that we certainly got a real winter this year.

blizzarded.

Have you been watching American TV again where any noun can become a verb by adding -ed on the end?

It's my old hospital archive clerk/receiver of patients/odd-job monkey job. There's been a few things removed since I left the first time, which is good, because I'm the only one filling a two- or three-person function at the moment. We shall see what we shall see.

Sounds like more fun than my job. They just eliminated styrofoam cups. Can't afford it in the budget.

Joy. oh well....start night school again tonight. FUN!

So Nik, bring a coffee mug from home. So many people have their own big travel coffee mugs anyway...

I bet that made a rattling noise as the critter's pea-sized brain bounced off the insides of its thick skull.

I seem to recall that this was a rescue dog, yes? Maybe there was a reason its last owner wanted to get rid of it.

Nik,

I became a big fan of despair.com a few years ago. They would have some muggage right up your alley, I'm sure. For those unitiated, despair.com specializes in 'demotivational' posters, mugs and calendars. I have their GOVERNMENT ("If you think the problems we create are bad, just wait until you see our solutions.") mug and use this as my desktop at work.

I'm sure you can find something to suit your personal freedom of expression...

Thought I would contribute to "The Thread"

Started a game with another player on this board with him as the Allies and me as the Japanese (since I am the number cruncher by trade and love it). I am devouring AARs and other War Room topics to glean from your combined knowledge.

I have played this game since it was in DOS and loved the rich detail of the game.

most definately. Only problem is that anyone who hangs one up in their mini cubicle gets written up. I'm lucky to get away with a few Dilbert cartoons where mangement can't readily see them.

The current owners are now in need of rescue! PB better stay away from my library. Already one book has surcombed to the terror of a PB editor.

Lunch time tithe... Blizzard forecast for later today; here's hoping it'll start around 4 o'clock, when I'm home.

Was just commenting to someone yesterday that we certainly got a real winter this year.

It is predicted to go as low as 4 degrees here this week . 4 ! this is in the Southern US. It is a crime against nature I tell you. Yikes.

Crime? Hardly...it's what winter is supposed to be. Cold is good for the soul.
