So the TV series Law and Order is back with a new season ?


    Yes!  I’ve always been a big fan and I’ve enjoyed Jeffrey Donovan’s work since he was in Burn Notice.  The character of the A.D.A. is a bit of a P.C. weenie.  I want another “Hang ‘em High McCoy type.

For continual tasting of psychedelia during your day, change your on-screen mouse pointer so its color scheme is "Inverted", and then install a highly colored image as your desktop background.  (The solar spectrum with absorption lines image which is my "cover photo" in my profile page here is mine.)

Share your tips for self-care and maintaining positive energy.

 

Got this prompt from a professional society (Association for Women in Science, of which I've been a member since the early '90s) this morning, and I find myself incapable of giving a straight answer.  So I've decided I'll make this a satirical NGD topic somehow.  Things that came to mind:

  • No blood stains anywhere!  W00t!
  • If there's still Jameson's in the bottle, I can cope.
  • That momentary precious, shocked silence right after the explosion but before the screaming.
  • I have my towel, so I don't have to panic.

   You are one hoopy froid who really knows where his towel is.

Imma just throw these out there:

  • The combination of a vivid imagination and a roll of duct tape can solve more problems that you might believe.
  • Hydration is important. Sometimes, this is best accomplished by aiming a firehose in the appropriate direction.
  • Snacks are easier to obtain than alibis.
  • If the irritation persists, increase volume at 5dB increments until they get the hint.
  • Carpe jugulum.

A year ago, I left my job, mainly because I was not happy there, and I didn't want to work for a certain manager. Yesterday, I got contacted by the new manager asking me to come back. On the fence, but tending towards declining. I was unhappy there for a variety of reasons, and I haven't forgotten them.

 

Still, I do need a job, and I haven't been very successful in my search.

I just learned the manager I didn't want to work for is now the district manager. That means I won't be dealing with him directly, but I will have to see him from time to time. And knowing him, he'll find some way to badger me into doing stuff I don't want to do.
