    No. I have HD DVD.

    The next poster either has Windows Vista or Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

    Nope, but I do remember a very funny radio drama by Martin Short on the CBC called "Some of my best rats are friends" It was about the trials and tribulations of being a graduate student.

    The next poster is really happy it is staying light outdoors much later now.

    Well I've seen one picture at least. :) She's gorgeous.

    Yes.

    I tried and I hope I didn't fail. We'll see tomorrow morning if that's the case.

    (Wow, active thread tonight...)


    The next poster is itching to take a couple days off but isn't going to because they're trying to save up a decent amount of vacation time for a trip next spring. *sigh*

    You're exactly right Moxiequz. The bad thing about changing jobs is you lose all of your previously accumulated vacation time and have to start all over. :(

    The next poster found out today that they have to take a business trip to Wisconsin next week. :eek:

    Well, yes itching and no not. But I don't save up vacation time. I just don't want it to look like I'm faking calling in sick just to take time off. I am taking next Friday off to go to a professional conference.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(sparkyAZ @ Nov 8 2007, 11:36 PM) [snapback]537098[/snapback]</div>
    Not Wisconsin. Ontario, California.

    The next poster is trapped at a job site they don't want and sees no way to get transferred.

    I've been "trapped" at present jobsite for almost 20 years!

    Next poster is happy that T.J. found him a new friend (OHM is a pretty kitty).




    (P.S. My mom used to say to put butter on the bottom of the cat's paws to get them to stay put and not run away or get lost. Anybody else ever heard that?)

    Butter on the cat's paws? No, never heard of that.

    The next poster used to gather all the cats in the house, put mandarin orange wrappers on their feet with rubber bands, and laugh hysterically as they tried to shake them off.

    (Okay, I was ten, and they forgave me.)

    Something like that.

    The next poster's wife wants him to go back to the animal shelter where they got OHM, and pick up her other family members.


    (See, here is the story: I went to the Lewisville Animal Shelter, where we thought I might see if Echo (my missing cat), had been taken to. She was not there. However, a man had dropped off four housebroken, fixed, indoor cats that had been de-clawed, and needed a home. He had dropped them off about an hour and half before I got there. One of the cats was a Russian Blue cat, which is a pure breed cat. She took to me, so I took her home. I named her OHM (another name after a sound term), and well, she took to me like bees to honey. Even took to my dog dB real easy. Rubbed up to him. )

    Yes!

    The next poster wonders what interesting names TJ will think of for 3 more cats.

    (Sound words, you say? Like bang?.........Catissimo?............... Blew?

    I do wonder and can't wait to hear!

    The next poster's cat (strictly indoor) took off out the door last night and whipped the snot out of a neighborhood cat. He's such a bully!

    (So happy Ohm found you TJ!)

    Nope!

    The next poster has a tale to tell about tails.

    Like I do.

    Meet Balance. This is another Russian Blue cat; sister to Ohm. She has no tail, and is heavier then the other two. Two you say? Yes. We also got Sine Wave, another Russian Blue, also a sister to the other two. That is her in the second picture.

    The third sister was gone already, and was a tabby, so we rescued three Russian Blue cats.

    No, no tail tales, though we do have a rescue kitty, too! :D

    The next poster is baking cupcakes for a birthday party. YUMMMMM!!!! Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World! :) [Tiramisu cupcakes, actually]

    I'm not baking any cupcakes but I will say the best brownies I've ever had were the vegan brownies sold from a concession cart outside one of my class rooms at UCSC. Mmmmm.. dense, rich, chocolately (no milk).

    The next poster is rather miffed that they don't get Veterans Day off.

    LOL. Nope. I get Veteran's Day off. And I'm taking Friday off to be at a professional conference. So three day work week for me.

    The next poster finally broke down and turned on the heat last night. Brrrrrrr.

    No... haven't turned the heat on yet, but it is getting chilly by So Cal standards anyway.

    The next poster thinks they should probably clean off their desk a bit before heading home for the weekend.
