As one of a few on the board who's met you, I feel confident in saying, "nope, you're not."

Lavabe, when you're ready to leave your current career, you have a future in writing and storytelling. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!!

Ehh, sounds like it can only get better from here on out. If you went from missing buttons and poopie diapers, to Bojangles for breakfast, to making a PO'd client happy, I'd say that's quite an upward trajectory - who knows what greatness awaits by 5PM?

I wonder how many times I will have to submit post # 6000 on the DBR? I have one up on the "ymm, beer" thread now that is my 2nd time around after they deleted about 4-5 posts for ? reason/s... :roll: I may have to start labeling them 6000.1 or 6000.01if they start bouncing them regularly... :)) :D...

I hate after-holiday-Mondays. Bleah. Preach it, brother. In addition, I really hate 9AM meetings on after-holiday mondays. Better get going.... There should be a law against morning meetings the first business day after a holiday weekend. And the person who called the meeting, then cancels it 15 mi...

Bummer, Ymo. Any chance your cell phone has a passcode? (It's a crackberry, I assume it has corp e-mail on it?) Mine has a security code, mandated by work (because I have work e-mail/contacts on it), that if the code gets mistyped 5 times, everything gets wiped off the phone, including whatever's on...

So, RMD,

How's the new gig so far?

We had a beautiful day at the beach here - 84 & sunny - but swimming involved a dry suit, 28 lbs. of lead, an airtank, and a bag for catching crabs.

Thanks, Colchar - have you recovered from your Canada Day debauchery in time to help us celebrate? ;)

Some of you may be interested in parental controls - controlling your child's/children's computer use and access. Here's some overall information on what's available from MSFT for computers and XBOX, http://www.microsoft.com/protect/family/default.mspx, And for Win7 specific (though many of these ar...

I have a couple questions. I have three computers running Windows XP Pro. I know all the problems with Vista, but I haven't had much trouble with XP, other than it being a memory hog with service pack X (what are we up to now, 3?). I was just wondering what the advantages would be for me to switch ...

Of all the recent celebrity deaths, this one has been the hardest for me. I am a diehard Tennessee Titans fan and Steve McNair and Eddie George are still my football idols. Steve was the QB of my childhood, he was the first QB I came to love. And now he is gone. I am really at a loss for words. Fro...

I love it when holidays fall on a weekend, so you can still get the paid day off when not everything is shut down. Today was a "me day" - pedicure, plus hair cut & highlights. Ooh la la! ;)

Home is where...the warm weather is? BD, how could you leave foggy/overcast October weather in July for sun and fun in the sand? As for me, I'm looking forward to the arrival of winter next week. :D :roll: :(( Dear Northeasterners, The people of the Northwest thank you for "taking one for the team"...

Were you a KA?

Yes. Glad to know the tradition predates me.

Ohmigoodness, he just keeps getting better.

Oh, jeez, Sue, I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm glad you & Chloe are okay. I hope nothing too precious was lost, and that insurance won't screw you on the rest.

Fire-recovery vibes your way.

The Miami Herald has released that Stallworth had marijuana in his system as well as alcohol when he killed the pedestrian. So he was not only driving drunk, he was high on an illegal substance. I'm a supporter of legalizing marijuana, licensing it, regulating it, and taxing the stuffing out of it....

That's what I was wondering... having gone to a KA formal in Charleston...

Alas, no. The deal just kicked in (I think, starting July 1.)

This pre-sale upgrade is a pretty good deal - it's only a little more than an employee-discounted price.
