Lobby - Uncensored

Ack. Sorry to hear that!

Glass furniture has always freaked me out. Thanks for strengthening my paranoia, and for giving me an anecdote to reference (though I'll probably
refer to you as an amputee if I ever re-tell it).

Got wood?

Actually it is a wooden desk, inherited from my great aunt when we cleaned out her house. The glass was one of those glass tops that go *over* the wood.
Nowadays they make those out of plexi but this one was probably 50 years old.

If it was Footbook you could blame Zoidberg.

whew, what a bad stunt.

Get well soon.

Whoa, evil! All my glass furniture is marked with the label "security glass", but I never put it to the test. And I hope I will never need to.

Anyway, hope your foot gets better soon.

Ouch, IG, heal up. And stop auditioning as a glass-walking miracle man. Don't you know those are all aliens?

IG: I hope your foot gets better quickly. That really sucks.

interrupt: I was an Amigaphile as well, although I have long since moved on. Still, it might be interesting to examine.. maybe it's a good OS for specialized needs, which my company has. Hm....

all that is, is an old version of linux mint with a theme. nothing to get excited over. and it is certainly NOT a commodore OS.

I blame Mark Zuckerburg for all of this. I just haven't figured out why yet.

It is the mindset the RDF he radiates that calls for transparent personal appliances
which is responsible.

Get well soon.

Tsunami warnings issued.

[#] Mon Sep 10 2012 16:30:25 EDT from dothebart

so meanwhile the best part of this news message is, that the hotel guy claims about half of the whater was shaken out of the pool.

[#] Mon Sep 10 2012 17:20:19 EDT from IGnatius T Foobar

After that kind of storm, if there's any water left in the pool, it's so disgustingly dirty that it needs to be changed out anyway. That happens to my sister every time there's a hurricane/flood in Florida. If she's lucky she gets some free 'gators as pets, but in any case the pool water is replaced by very muddy water.

[#] Mon Sep 10 2012 17:32:08 EDT from zooer

Maybe it is your sister... I have not heard that, she needs to plant some grass in her yard.

[#] Mon Sep 10 2012 18:15:27 EDT from dothebart

its just an earthquake, the tsunami didn't start. so I guess the whater still is clean ;)

the death toll also wasn't that high.

zooer: now you're just muddying the waters ;)
