putting this out there

Am I the only person in the entire universe who received a reasonable science education from parochial schools? Miseducating children so egregiously really ought to be a crime, but is this really becoming the norm rather than the exception?

windows security = the bomb

An actual dialog box that I actually got when logging into one of my company's actual servers.

I did not put this here.

These courses are listed under a person with a computer-generated fake name of 'Monserrat Jones.'

timing is everything

& I'm blowing the joke. I'm probably only 1/4 done but by now either you get it or you don't. And no, it's not particularly funny when someone shits themselves to death.

Spending the long weekend in Canada ... not that i don't like roller derby & beer, but I could really use a couple of days to myself. Next week is going to be insayayayne - (e:dragonlady) will be going to Illinois next Saturday to buy a car from her sister, then I'm going to Baltimore all week for a conference, then we're meeting back up in Queens for a Friday wedding, then to Troy for a wedding shower on Saturday, and back to BUF by Monday for another week of the rat race. Woof.

I'm trying out the twitters for anyone who's interested

fuck this shit, specifically

What is this and how do I kill it? [In reverse order of importance.] It is a subterranean vine, woody and tough but flexible. I've been trying to get rid of it for two years since it started menacing my garage. It has a tendency to mingle with my herbs [although it does not choke them] and by the time it's finally visible the base is already woody and thick enough to be difficult to cut.

It does not seem to be a common weed, per se. I place the blame squarely on my idiotic neighbors who I hate.

shenanigans

(e:dragonlady7) bought me some painter's tape, which was a big hit at the office. Highly recommended for temporary shenanigans, and one roll goes a long way.

Cross-stitch is coming along. Although I don't plan to exhibit this, I looked through the rules for the creative arts show at the county fair. There is a minimum size of 8"x10" [which seems quite large to me] which they are good enough to waive for the disabled, elderly, and men.

I understand the motivation behind it, but I don't know any dudes who wouldn't rather lose on the merits than win on a handicap.

I was just saying to (e:dragonlady7) this morning that we haven't heard much from Carl Palomino lately. I'm disappointed, he got off to a very impressive start. Then I saw this

to Penny Arcade in the chatter next to WNYMedia's coverage of the president's speech. 'You can't send those emails if you want to be governor...!'
