  1. If they have nothing better to do, they'll make up rumors about anybody. I found out that my coworkers at a previous employer thought I was gay - when I asked why, I was told, "Because you dress nice and never talk about your relationships." I was surprised that anyone thought I "dressed nice".
  2. Hope things turn around for you quickly.
  3. That's seriously sad. It had better have been in a very difficult location.
  4. Walking to New Orleans, Blueberry Hill, Ain't That A Shame, I'm Walking, I'm Gonna Be A Wheel Someday... BTW- If you ask him, he'll tell you he's the originator of Rock & Roll >
  5. Quite a few contemporaries are still around. Little Richard & Fats Domino, for instance.
  6. "So sad to hear of Chuck Berry's passing... The Father of Rock & Roll. I was fortunate enough to have met him a few times, and to hang/play with him on stage & behind the scenes, during the filming of Hail! Hail! Rock & Roll. An unforgettable experience... And as Dad once said "If you tried to give rock and roll another name, you might call it Chuck Berry." Thank You for All that You gave us.... My Heart & Prayer go out to his Family & Friends" - Julian Lennon
  7. Keep this up zeni and OKC will pay you to stay away - you're costing them business.
  8. Other than eating real fast. Got too used to having to pound stuff down before getting paged to some location in the stores I worked at. Haven't worked in a store since '95 and still haven't been able to break the habit.
  9. Everybody gets at least one.

    SNOW!!!

    1-3" here Sun. Night into Mon. Morn, then an additional 3-6" going into Tues. when the "Lake Effect" kicks in. They said we've only had about .7" since Dec. and are calling this storm a "drought buster" for the area. Beginning to look like I'll be putting the gas I bought for the snowblower into my car this year even if we get the max 9" snowfall.

  12. Just waiting for Watson to merge with Deep Blue...ever see "Colossus: The Forbin Project"?
  13. Just an ol' sweet song, keeps Georgia on my mind...
  14. It's "Saving", not "Savings", zeni.
  15. You're doing it wrong then. Instead, move the clock back 11 hours & gain that much sleep.
  16. Techically, being a Corp HQ, the place never closes. They have a service (Aramark) that does all the cleaning. There's 7 interconnected buildings, with 3 to 6 stories, they do all that stuff on a schedule, hitting the restrooms twice a day.
  17. Ours autoflush at work, but I'm usually the first one there in the morning and the stench from what was left behind after the last flush the day before is horrible, so it could just be an incomplete flush. Even worse is when they don't flush the can and they were the last person in there the day before. Half the time, it looks like they used an entire roll of tp as well, so you just know that if you flush it, it's gonna clog. Then there's the "unmanned firehose effect" - urine on the top of the urinal...or the large puddle underneath...wtf?
  18. Don't write off Independent films so easily. Some are pretty good. A friend of mine won tickets to see some independent foreign film at The Music Box Theater in Chicago, a beautiful theater built in 1929. The movie (subtitled) was actually very good, but the subtitles were a distraction.
