Gooooood afternoon fAWLTY TOWERs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not much extra to add beyond what I already said earlier. I celebrated the completion of the monks by going to white castle and getting some psuedo-burger comfort food. The walk to work burned off half of that sack, and I'm hoping the walk home will burn off the other half. The only issue I'm having right now is with my laptop charger, as it seems to be on its last legs. Internet research is showing that I need to get another one, as frustrating as that may be. I'm thinking I can use one from another Thinkpad series or something to that effect, but finding even that much might be a bit of a hassle. I'm going to hit up a few shops today, but if neither Radio Shack or the rather shady place down the block has it, I'm going to have to wait a week and a half for a new 'un from either Lenovo or perhaps e-bay. Frustrating, but just another sign that the GWE!!!!! has passed. Either way I'm happy that I posted the Monks this morning when I actually had battery power.
Yikes! That sucks about the charger.

Jeremy - are you on Newfie time? 30 minutes earlier than Eastern?
They only go 30 minutes forward instead of a full hour? I've never heard of that before.
*blink*
Bookmarking. Carry on ...

Newfies are.... different? Special? Let's leave it at that.
Don't tell that to the Charlatans.
This place is scary...

Please do. And if you or anyone has any real-life knowledge of any of the styles I listed under inspirations and you feel I've gone off rails or can add more to it, please let me know.

I always thought they were the children of people from Charleston and Manhattan.Don't tell that to the Charlatans.People from Charleston?
Wait so thats how you produce charlatans..... then if a man from Iceland married a woman from cuba then their offspring should be Icecubes..... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Man, long day.
I am stoked about saving up for a laptop; Inspiron 17.

Did you say you were going to have to save up for a year? If so, I'm sure there will be a better one for the same money by then!

Sure...sounds good.
Is there a preference on where?
I try to pick someplace that's not available to him in his neck of the woods. Last Wednesday, I took him to Max & Erma's. We also stopped by the Armory for dice.
We're most likely to swing up near campus since he's looking for Psych books and the Lane Ave store would be good for him. But I could see us scurrying over to Bethel too. Plenty of choices. :)
Both are great stores. The gaming gear at Lane seems more abundant due to the closeness to campus, but I have always had good luck at Bethel as well. There is also the store at Crosswoods, on High St.
I am trying to think of a location for lunch that is somewhat "Columbus specific" but I am at a loss for the moment. I will think on it some more. Some places would hinge on whether or not Woody likes certain foods.

I want to start dressing some kind of way that synthesizes 18th/19th C influences into my wardrobe. But I'd need money to figure that thing out and buy clothes. The question is, would the wife revolt?
EDIT: Okay, that was some crazy ghosting, but I think everybody knows the thread of conversation is back there.
I have been wanting to do this as well. You can find some online retailers for custom clothing. But money is definitely the key.
Man, long day.

I would not be doing my part if I did not urge you to get a lenovo. Despite the problems I had with my charger, I've never been happier than I am now with my s10(I think they make an s10-3 now).

Well, my ballpark spending figure on a laptop is $1,100 or less. The rest of the money saved for MyrtleCon 2 (plane ticket, food/lodging and spending cash). I'll be saving for 11 months so that I can have the laptop while in Myrtle Beach.
I get $250 a month, but out of that I need to account for Birthdays, holidays and Mother's day. Beween Myrtle Beach and the laptop I'm looking at a total of approxiamately $2,400.

I'll keep it in mind. Who makes the Lenovo?

Lenovo is where the thinkpad went after IBM went into torpor. They're a solid company, and they make the bulk of their stuff in China(i.e. you can find economical replacements almost anywhere).

My new desktop - my first desktop ever, after six years of laptops - is a Lenovo and I'm pretty happy with it. Was fairly inexpensive considering (though I got it without monitor and keyboard).
I don't remember this being a jetted pool, either. What are those bubbles?Sorry about that. :SThis place is scary...Go ahead and jump in Froggie...the waters only a little warm.I think that's Sebastian's doing.
It was me.
So your wanting to dress like Doctor Who. Maybe a really long scarf would add to the look.Not so much like Dr. Who.
We angered the good doctor. :(
It was all just in fun.
grrrr. and owwwwww. :(
Minor Rant:

Oops. Sorry, DDH, PhD!
I'm bad to the bone.

At least it's game night. That might go a ways in making the events of the day fade.

I could, but dissection would be a lot more fun. I have a rusty letter opener and some push pins ready to go.
The only way to verify your mammalian status is dissection.Can't you just take it on faith? :)
No, all mammals have hair or fur at some stage of their life cycle. No non-mammals have hair or fur of any kind.
So you can put that rusty bonesaw away.
I see no fur in your avatar picture, unlike mine, which illustrates what a long, luxurious, lavendar scented mane looks like. Your avatar is bald and appears to be made of metal.
Hmmm...mammals definitely don't have metal skin. This only heightens the need to perform a dissection. However, it looks like we also will need a blow torch.
Hey, you could always get him really drunk then see if he'll let you do a deep probe. :P
Don't tell that to the Charlatans.People from Charleston?
Actually, Charlotte NC. I had a layover @ the airport there for a couple hours yesterday.
Moorluck's bad to the bone.Fixed it for you.
BTW, what does LPM stand for? I'm guessing the M either stands for Moore or Moorluck.
Sure...sounds good.

I have no problem with food, ask Uri. So open the floodgates

My observation has been that Woody is not that picky when it comes to food. Me, on the other hand, yeah .... ;)
EDIT: Ninja'ed by the dworc.

I'll give you three guesses.
(Look at my name.)

Got it. Though I can't ever remember seeing that alt before today.

I use it from time to time, I figure since it's pretty much the same avi people tend to overlook it. :)

I have it on good authority that Sebastian has cooties.
Morning folks. It's been an interesting morning so far. Patches (my hamster) somehow managed to get out of his cage and had himself a whirlwind tour of the right wing of our house, it ended when my mom found him in the master bathroom tub which is about the size of a jacuzzi.
Hamsters are ingenious escape artists and surprisingly strong for their size. If there is a way out, they'll find it.
