Aaaaand more work bs. We now have to have all our vacation plans in by an ungodly early date that is *always*in flux. Apparently before, when we all planned a special staff meeting to work together to take days off at times that inconvenienced neither the company or each other was just too time consuming! Now its a first come first serve free for all that results in most of your requests being rejected because someone requested Christmas week on January 2 via email and no two staff can be out in the same lunar phase, didn't you know?
Am I the only one dealing with this? Are there other companies this backwards?

Nope. Not me anyway, I work for a small company... just me and one other guy, and since I got the boss's back, it's me who decides everything. Sucks that you have to deal with that though.
Thanks for the link LPM. You have decreased my blood pressure and kept me from going postal.
in terms of your toys, i still think you can go about it with household stuff, but if you're looking for something a bit more swanky, I'll keep an eye out for you next time I go to the store.
That's rookie stuff. We were thinking more like this.Simple clothesline rope will do for the most part, but requires skill to use. I have a friend who is learning japanese rope bondage specifically, and he is well on his way to becoming a master of the style. Every day waist belts are great for wrists but they tend to require you to keep one hand on the free end of the belt. Also, depending on the cut, simple women's underwear can secure a limb to a bedpost without a problem, but I would only use old undies that she isn't planning on wearing anymore.Need a good supplier. BK doesn't deal in much, and I don't have time or space to allow my imagination to come to life, we got kids 'amember.My jokes are broken today. I wish Solnes was home so we could go back to talking about bondage. :(Now THAT'S more like it. Who needs guns who you have restraints? Preferably ones you make yourself.

Mine is.
Since when is it a crime to want a day off to see your wife (much less friends)?
I can hardly wait until that bastard is out of the building and transferred to another restaurant.

Yes. I had to put in my 2012 holiday time off requests by 12/13/11.
F+++ if I know what I'm doing a year from now.

How have I not found this before? :)
Saw the new Sherlock Holmes movie last night and I don't think it will make a trilogy. It was good, like a chess game than a mystery novel.
The trailers to Prometheus and Battleship look damn good.
Finally after two months of delays, my father is having gall bladder surgery Friday.
Other than that the week seems fine. I can still use some positive waves for the +2 caliber.

Riley was sitting here at the foot of the couch reading one of our books on reptiles and insects when he brought it to me and pointed to a picture of a frogs skeleton.
R: "Daddy, this froggy bones?"
M: "Yeah, it's a froggy skeleton."
R: "Froggy skelon? Froggy dead?"
M: "Yes, a froggy skeleton."
R: (Tears forming in little eyes.)"Poor froggy I miss him."
Aw.

I thought we agreed we weren't going to do that in our own threads anymore.
Wife is boring me to tears with her movie, so I am back online while listening to Flagons & Dragons interview the creator of GOLD.
How about you?
Sounds nice.
The guy in F&D keeps talking about how Belgian beers (I assume he means ales) taste like bananas. What the hell is he talking about?

laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Stick some tubes in and cut the gallbladder out so they don't have to cut people open. Less invasive.
My mum gave us lads a choice of imported beers as part of our Christmas presents. I chose Mythos because of the name and I had drunk the others before.
I put it in the beer fridge and was saving it for after Christmas.... Nice warm evening sitting on the back veranda, my aunt asks me if I want something to drink, I say one of my Mythos beers would be great.....both my father and brother-inlaw say "oh, bugger... " "we drank them we thought that they were leftovers from Christmas....."
Bastards....

Lambics probably. They're Belgian ales, some of which are fruit infused.
I can't bring myself to think he is that ignorant, to mistake a single lambic (come to think of it, I've never seen a banana lambic -- you make me curious) for the general run. He's dissing Belgian "beers" and seems to be generalizing about this banana taste. I'm more willing to believe there is a problem with his tongue or neurology. I await comment from Aberzombie.

You drink it, you replace it!
Man, homebrewing new campaign settings is demanding. I just finished a massive list of house rules, including a reconstruction of the core races, and now I have to write out roles for all the classes and explain magic and technology, which, in my campaign setting, is something different that what you usually see.
After that I get to do culture, which should be fun. My elves are a mix of old and new ideas that I wanted to play with, and Native American culture is important to the campaign setting.

I can see how only drinking once a year could make you, ah, extreme in your enforcement...
