That's enough fun for now. Move along. Get back to work.



Damned slackers.

Wow, sounds thrilling, but aren't death threats against board rules? Might want to rethink that, sweetheart. 8)

I'm not working. There is nothing you can do to make me work.

I am on the internet.

I sense this thread is not being taken seriously. At least I'm working, dammit.

Well, not counting typing this message.

And reading the other messages.

And checking my personal e-mail.

But before and after the above, I was and will be working hard, yessiree.

Is anyone going to be in the Atlanta airport later today? See you there! I'll be the guy wearing pants. And a shirt.

Yeah yeah yeah. I know your tricks. "Sure! I'll be in the British Library!" and then you never show up.

Harumph. You're probably not even in London. You're probably some Republican living in Ohio.

I just finished working really hard to order a new 15" MacBook Pro without pants (the MacBook Pro, not me).

I really wanted the so-far non-existent and perhaps never-to-be 13" MacBook Pro. It's so sad having to settle for a bigger notebook than I really want, just to get the features I want, that I might just have to kill myself. At least addabox will be happier that way <sniff>.

And I won't be anywhere near Atlanta, however. Sorry.

No, no, you're properly dolorous. I'm just gunning for the congenitally upbeat. Beating up the congenial?

Midwinter-- what're doing in Atlanta? Communing with the ancestors? Academic junket? Accessing the communes of junk academia?

Hi, I'm addabox and I'm having a labored spoonerism-ish day.

Anyone here planning to be in Heathrow on Monday at about noon or Frankfurt for the week after?

Globe trotting strikes me as dangerously akin to fun.

Watch yourself, I certainly am.

Dude. Don't ask me to post images of me urinating on a George Bush action doll on the Reader Enquiries desk of Humanities Two.

I went through HELL to get my card back last time.

I, for one, can attest to Hassan's at least one-time presence in the seedy streets of London. As to his sanity, well... that has yet to be determined.

The no pants model is crap. You might as well have bought a Dell.

Goddamn Apple! It's insane that they're trying to sell a $2,000 laptop sans-culotte!

Dell not only puts on the pants, they buckle the belt! And they don't force me into boot-cut, take it or leave it-- on their web site I'm seeing carpenter, bell bottom, cargo..... It's called choice, Apple, you might want to check it out.

I swear to God, if Apple doesn't at least put some shorts on that thing I'm getting a PC.
