Maybe creating an immediate demand for a product that otherwise might not sell so quickly?I see now that there is a lot of griping going on in the product discussions. It's what I get for not generally reading that section.
It's actually a pretty awesome problem to have. Like the first printing of the core rules. Happily, it looks like they are looking to fix the under-supply issue.

CH, we're doing Prelude to Act III of Lohengrin (triple tonguing ftw)
But... but it's so easy
It's so easy but I can't do it
So risky but I gotta chance it
It's so funny there's nothing to laugh about
My money that's all you want to talk about

How do you know? Did they send you an email or something?

There's a "How many.." joke in there somewhere.

Why don't I see FAWTL in the messageboards list? I actually had to SEARCH for it this morning...
BAH!
Friday not good. 25 minutes waiting at the gas station for a pump to open up. I think I need to go watch some Triple-A baseball tonight. I hear the Iron Pigs are in the Governor's Cup this year.
Well, they always told you, if you didn't stop, you'd go blind.

Yes yes there is. I also do not wish it to be godwined so we shall stop now.

It's kinda weird how many old brick mills sit on the waterways of New England
Oh, definitely. The historic areas of Lowell are pretty cool to walk through. And my friends used to rent space in one of the mill buildings in Manchester, NH to host their hippie commune/artists' collective. Those buildings are pretty awesome. And built to last!
More boring stuff about the Merrimack Valley, birthplace of American industry
That book about unions that I mentioned in the books thread has a bunch stuff about this area. The guys who set up the mills in Lowell were well-meaning types who were eager to avoid all of Thomas Jefferson's fears about industrialism--pretty unsuccessfully, but that's starting to veer in verboten territory for this thread. There's a bunch of other interesting random facts, like, for example, the world's (I think, maybe just in English) first female-written and -run periodical was The Lowell Offering, which was a literary magazine made by the Lowell millworkers. There's also stuff about Lynn and Lawrence, too. Lot of "L"s.
Anyway, I think we do deliver to Wayland, but I'm not sure.

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWRRRRR!
so...I called to shut off the power at the apartment on Monday. They informed me it would take 3-5 business days. When I called earlier to shut it down, they said they could only place orders for future power shut offs a maximum of 7 days in advance.
Fine, whatever. Just turn it off at the aprtment. I want to keep power at the house.
Last night I get home, and my garage door won't work. That's strange. And I go in the front door, and I don't have power. Also strange...and my neighbors do have power...waitaminute....!
Yup. They screwed up which address should be shut down, and which should keep power. ON the plus side, the tenants in my old apartment are getting their power for free. ON the minus...I have none.
BASTARDS!

Lol. I find it deliciously poetic that you handle Lexington's packages. What better place to touch off a revolution, no? =)In the historic traditions of Massachusetts industry, New England's biggest hub is located in Chelmsford. (Lowell used to be named East Chelmsford, I recently learned). It's a huge facility and every package to and from Mass, NH, Vermont and Maine passes through its doors. As far as the package cars go, my building services everything between Haverhill (pronounced Ha-ve-ril to those of you not from the Bay State) and Marlborough outside of 128.
For the past month I've been loading the trucks delivering to the Burlington Mall, and I must say that I now officially hate everything associated with Back-to-School sales.
Anyway, I won't be organizing any revolutions in the foreseeable future (it's hard enough getting my guys to come to work on time) but I have personally loaded Noam Chomsky's Amazon orders. Who lives in Lexington.
Good old Noam I bet you let his packages go through fine. And no I live in Newton not Lexington but if you confused me with Noam ..well I will take that as a compliament.
I read alot of his stuff in college and afterwards some of it is interesting but I don't take to all of his theories there are somethings he says I agree but probably not to the degree he takes them too. It's Like Howard Zinn I read his book on American History and foillowed some of the stuff yet when he started talking about more recetn times I felt he glossed over it to be able to fit things nicely into his theory.I work in Chelmsford though so perhaps I see you from time to time on the road?

Oh, hey! It's that old piece of luggage I was going to donate to Samsonite for their new commercial. I think this time they were talking about having an elephant stomp on it.

Maybe we can visit some kind of FAWTocalypse on them?

DAMMIT TVTropes, I'm not supposed to be crying.
Ah, someone posted Moeko's Owl. Awesome. I spent a lot of time on Outpost Nine after I got back from Japan. Azrael's writing is amazing. :)

I'm having a brief fugue of avatar instability. I believe it is being brought on by the fact that I can't seem to defocus a thread I don't want to follow and no matter what I do it seems to just reappear. Really pissing me off. At least the others disappeared.
