I was supposed to be sleeping in late today, because we’re implementing a new application framework after hours today, so I was going to go in late to stay late and test it. But then we found out the database person wasn’t going to be able to implement things until after seven o’clock (and we can’t test until after that). So, screw it. I’ll test my stuff tomorrow morning. If it’s broken, well, it’ll make for fun Wednesday.
Have a good one.
Water main break. Low water pressure, brown water, :yuck: no shower :growl: . This is no way to start the day.

Does this mean you have to drink beer all day?
Big bummer pj.
There’s lots of fresh bottled water in Alamosa, the salmonella capital of the usa.
Hang in there buddy.
Awwww Good (it will be, seriously) Morning :banana: PJ โ A!I!V!
Sounds like “they” would be Lost without you.

Sue P, how did they get that great nest? Was that an old one of Lola’s & PaleMale? If they did move that and It was PaleMale’s & Lola’s nest then… :no: โ :fist: A!I!V! but for now TEA :joe: Time 8)
wow, I can not even stand Ms :rant1: ‘s voice anymore. If I hear her or Miller & whomever I have to turn off and I might never come back except for Bill Press… ๐

Morning all. The job at Whole Foods is going OK I guess. I’m still kind of crippled at the end of the day from being on my my feet for so long though. Hopefully another few weeks and I’ll be used to it, and my brother picked up his dog-thank goodness.
Hey Andy. Yeah, that on your feet all day stuff is a lot more tiring than people give it credit for. Do they give you any perks (like free tofu or something)?
I get 20% off all purchases, but given the high prices it brings it down to slightly more than a regular grocery store. Everyone does seem genuinely nice though and there’s almost no oversight by supervisors, it’s just expected that you’ll do your job.
Nice to be treated like a grownup.
Tuesday reminder
Maron v. Seder at 11 AM EDT, 8 AM PDT
Here is a SammyCam link.
Word was yesterday that Marc was pissed and Seder and Larry, the techie guy were going to have a meeting last night.
Stay tuned.
Anyone have an idea why all of the sudden my AT&T Yahoo e-mail addies would stop getting spam (knock on wood)? It’s nice but it makes me think I may be missing some good deals on refinancing a mortgage or viagra.
Last week sounded like Marc was tired of doing it if they weren’t going to make any money from it. And, it seems clear to me that they’ll have a hard time getting all but the most diehard fans to pay anything if they can’t come up with a consistent, watchable, listenable show. It’s hard for me to judge, because I have to watch from work, and I’m not sure if the dropouts and freezes are just a result of some sort packet shaping going on here, or if it’s problems on their end. I know they throttle down mp3 downloads here, but sometimes the maron seder thing is great, and sometimes it aint. Often from moment to moment. Of course, I’d probably go ahead and subscribe anyway, just to support the idea. Plus, that way Mishna can get half of whatever the subscription costs are.
I get very little spam on my yahoo account, but then nobody has it, since I never use it. I get roughly 125 – 150 a day from my other e-mail accounts, not counting work.
I was thinking about applying at one of those stores. There’s a Sprouts by me. The faux finish biz is super slow and I don’t see it picking up anytime soon.
andy- If you end up staying with this job for awhile, check out “Z-Coil” shoes or boots. They’ve got a spring-thingie instead of a heel. I’ve started wearing them at work about four years ago- they’ve really saved my knees and hips.

I wish I could send you all a clip of the KWGN weather woman, Angie Austin, just now working it out with the Harlem Globetrotters. If you look in the dictionary for “Zaftig” you’ll see her picture. :hubba: There was also a Golden Retreiver in the shot- not clear what his role was ๐ฏ
Sam said yesterday that Marc was frustrated but you know, I just re read his book, “The Jerusalem Syndrome” and he had the same frustration and worries about his career when he was divorcing his first wife. Sam seems to be able to smooth his feathers out. He said it would be okay.
Marc? Frustrated? Worried? Hard to believe. ๐
I never did get around to reading his book. I got it for like $2 including shipping, but haven’t had a chance to open it (the spine’s uncracked; I don’t think it’s ever been opened). I should put it in a sealed baggie, and wait for it to be worth a couple million.
Thanks Art. I’m hoping I’ll just get used to it, I’ve basically been sitting behind a desk for 12 years and I’m pretty much out of shape. How much do those shoes cost?
They’re kind of pricey (ca$200) but my company has an annual $200 health benefit that we can use for anything they think is of benefit. They last forever. I just replaced the laces on mine.
I was thinking about applying at one of those stores.
You might like it Krista, considering I’d rather be repairing computers I still find that it’s OK.
Buford would say their a bunch of sandal wearin’,kale munchin’. tea sippin’ hippies.
We get $80 a year for shoes, I got a pair sneaker like work shoes but where the tongue attaches to the upper is rubbing my foot raw. I hope these things break in.
Marc looked frustrated and I know I was, when seen the name was Seder V. Maron. WTF Seder would NEVER have fame without the “acting” wacko Libras = Marc & Jeanane…… A!I!V!
just my opinion and what i saw on Marc’s forehead…………….
There is a shop that sells those shoes in my ‘hood. They always make me think of this.
Marc’s book is a pretty quick read. He was part of Kinison’s scene for a little while-was lucky to get out. Sam is one of a very few who can take his shit.
I’ve got my copy on a shelf with pictures of my family :fire:
Ah, to be among the behemoths deemed too big to fail
IDON’T know too many economists who get confused with preachers. But there are times when they talk about virtue and temptation as if they were free-market holy rollers.
Consider the phrase that has been popping up all over the Bear Stearns debacle: “moral hazard.” No, Moral Hazard is not the name of a country and western singer.
It’s the phrase economists use to explain why people shouldn’t be protected from the consequences of their actions. In The Wall Street Journal’s definition, moral hazards are “the distortions introduced by the prospect of not having to pay for your sins.”
Andy loves the Seinfeld Vern.
Well, Sam knows not to take Marcs’ anger and frustration personally. He know’s that Marcs’ anger is directed at the Universe, ususally.
Or the computer. :fustrate:
Does anyone get Steph’s pod caste by any chance? I wanna see Seder v. Maron but I’m waiting to be declared the Official Ceramic Artist of the Stephanie Miller Show and I don’t wanna miss it.
Oh, sam’s on the IM, so I guess he’s getting ready.
I thought I heard Sam say something about the show possibly being later on today.
Coming on now. He was referring to the future sometime.
Are you on Stephie hold?
I heard marc say ‘yeah’ and now he’s got a bat on his side.
Nice image. There he is. Very clean.
This is pretty compelling stuff.
Marc looks Nice…
Sammy Cam is forever freezing on my end but Marc is working.A!I!V!
Now they both are working, but it whatever they may quit. ๐ ….. A!I!V!
Marc should go see if the Emperor Club VIP has broadband.
Man! Everyone had a hard time sleeping last night. Marc, Sam, PJ, me.My house mate decided she wanted to watch The Simpson’s Movie” full blast at 3:30 am :tap: And when I asked her to turn it down she decided to clean the kitchen loudly :fustrate:
Oh, hey, DC area stalkers…. Looks like Maron is at the Hotel George, based on the thing on his hotel room door.
We always implement “new” stuff on the third shift .. when it of course works fine .. but.. then comes the first shift and then and only then will the technicians find what control to click on that crashes the whole process . :reaper: :reaper:

I’m not stalking anyone in D.C. until Saturday at the Kite Festival slash Cherry Blossom Festival. Going hunting with my trusting 35mm then. Just me and 600,000 of my closest friends, families and other tourists.
I’m waiting for someone with a deep Russian accent to call Heartman and tell him he has his head up his ass.
A Million people in Iran right away and 300 million IDIOT MORONS gone “poof” in about 20 minutes .. ( assuming the Russians and/or the Chinese haven’t already implemented the Sea Land delivery system in which case they vanish almost simultaneously) :reaper: :reaper:
I think he’s got a toll-free number.

I’m pretty sure both the Russians and the Chinese have a better idea of what we are up to in the Persian gulf than either the Guardian or Seymour Hersh..
I think we would “be warned” in no uncertain terms if we were really about to nuke someone near by. :reaper: :reaper:

Gang, in CA there is a case that a person is considered guilty on Circumstantial Evidence…. SO WHY CAN’T WE ARREST FOR THE SAME? That is what I have been asking …. confirmed again…
why not? … A!I!V! Don’t be droll Thom, they are “dogging” Sen. H. Clinton, Twit Thom, the rethugs are playing you. I will call now I have adr & phone #s.

STFU THOM TWIT!

The difference between Heartman and Fat Heady is that Heartman tends to cause his listeners to commit suicide while Fat Heady just causes one to kneel in front the throne and throw up.
Anyone who listens to both of them and think what they describe constitutes government has to be totally not listening . :yuck: :tap: :tap:
Druid, thanks for the good thoughts, though it turned out to be a really stupid day in which I spent 40 minutes trying to locate my jacket after a kid took it to lunch with him.
As for the nest, I am sure it is not Palemale’s original which was removed a couple of years ago by the management of the building. They were unhappy because the birds would drop the remains of their prey on the oh so expensive sidewalk of the co-op.
The management waited for the breeding season to end and then took down the nest. Hundreds of people would gather outside the building each day to protest and the management finally relented.
The birds had built the nest on some pigeon spikes that had been installed to keep the pigeons from landing. The hawks used the spikes to keep their nest in place. Management replaced the spikes with others designed to hold the nest and the hawks rebuilt.
Maron was on the first hour of Seder on Randi just now. No big whoop.
I heard Maron and now gone 8)
Sue P, :rofl2: yea I watch PaleMale with his first arrival. I watched it on PBS and even in the wee hours of the dark, at 1am & even 4am…. I just THANK YOU SUE ๐ for advising on the ZILLION updates on PaleMale & Lola and all the dear Lincoln critters. …A!I!V!
sniff I was even a voyeur (non-sexual LBH) watching them trying to “spike” the Hawks (or pigeons :rofl2: )
Everybody run out and buy something from Wal-Mart.
Fred, you were right :bow: regarding Ms. :rant1: and ED :doh:
… now I just follow Marc then JUST SOME NPR.
Green 96 won’t work for me today then I get :fustrate: ‘D & :yawn: & *poof*.
I wish I was still in L.A. re 58. It needs to go and and SCREAMED!!!
THIS IS WRONG! I have been monitoring. WE ARE AMERICANS. WAL-MART SHOULD NEVER BE ATTENDED AGAIN. Who Can I Call?
THANK YOU PJ, After Obama’s office I will call re this or start a letter campaign. HOW HORRID HOW DESPECABLE.. When I heard about week or whenever ago, I was involved with something else. …A!I!V!
Love the Hell’ry tools calling all of the shows. Sounds like someone playing a tape.
Seder sounds like he is about to explode in next hour.
Walmart is indefensible.
I have to admit I bought some cheap PC speakers from them ($15.), last summer. I did it while I was on vacation out west, because there was no other place to get them. We drove through town after town, trying to find a store that sold computer speakers. In almost every town there was a Walmart but NOTHING else. Walmart was grocer, clothing, toy, electronic, housewares store etc. I’m sure before they came to town there were other stores, but Walmart’s economic “prosperity” did them all in. So, many people have no choice.
NYC, has not approved a Walmart, to date.
Kevin re: #49 yeah, that’s her :hubba:

With U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney in Israel this week talking about Iran, the big question was whether President Bush would be willing to use military force in the waning days of his presidency to stop Iran’s nuclear weapons program. The answer from most Israeli intelligence analysts: not likely. … Israel also figures that the chances of the Bush administration ordering a pre-emptive military strike against Iran are virtually zero. The only such scenario the Israelis envision is if the Democratic presidential candidates appear to be far ahead of their Republican rival and Bush senses a “now or never” strike option. Even in these circumstances, the Israelis say, an American strike is highly unlikely. รขโฌยจรขโฌยจStill, the Israelis are hoping that the hard-line Cheney will push the envelope — a role he reportedly played vis-a-vis the U.S. invasion of Iraq. One official said Cheney is seen as “a significant player” who could influence “serious issues that cannot wait.”
