Wargames? As in "Let's play global thermonuclear war?" That movie from 1920 or so?
Wargames? As in "Let's play global thermonuclear war?" That movie from 1920 or so?Oh, c’mon, I grew up watching that movie (well ... not as such, but I watched it several times in my childhood).
OK, 1983 not 1920. But still... saw it after a few years as a computer professional and was pretty disgusted with it. I've done my best to forget.
How much more profitably could one's time be spend thinking of good E's.

Thanks...nothing is really grabbing me right now. I could wax an elephant on evil, but not really sure I want to. E is not for Energy, apparently. I want something Easy.

Ah, I misunderstood – I thought you were implying that the movie was ancient, rather than the concept behind it being old-fashioned. My mistake.
morning all, now off to class.

ACK!!! Blasphemy!!! How can you say such things about one of the most so-cheesy-it's-awesome movies of the 80s?!? Especially one that gave rise to the career of the great Matthew Broderick?1?

A couple thoughts:
-3 hour naps after work throughly bork up sleep schedules
-I'm pretty good at plants vs zombies but I find it very stressful
-my cats find my lap to be the best seat in the house
-I married an amazing manNow, here's to hoping I can get to sleep sometime soon :/
Weird. I was getting up for work right around the same time this was posted.
So...there's TWO emails I haven't gotten from KQ. Weird.
Mornin', everybody.

Morning... Fawlties

Lyrics - I Love Work
Woke up this morning a little too early,
a little too tired, a little too surly.
Guess I got up on the wrong side of the bed
when I shoulda stayed in it instead.
But I gotta go to work 'cause I love it
Oh how I wanna tell the boss to shove it
Good song.
I like Yo Mama better though ;-)
Yeh Yo Mama (NSFW) is funnier

Dewey is still widely used in public libraries, but the rest of it... yeah not so many card files or date due stamps anymore. At least not in libraries of any size. There are plenty of small libraries that probably still use them.Mom was the librarian in the junior high attached to my grade school, so I spent my time before and after class in her library through fourth grade. She put me to work, of course, so I spent a lot of time putting pockets and "Date Due" stamp sheets into new books with rubber cement, punching the little checkout cards, and shelving books (on the low shelves) while she typed the card catalog entries. Oh, I filed those, too. It was awesome. I doubt any of that is still in use. Even Dewey has been replaced, I think.
gets lost in nostalgic haze... or is that the rubber cement fumes?
When I was volunteering at the my Uni's library in the 90s it was all RFIDs no cards...
I liked working in the library and thought about doing the degree... but I got tired of being a poor Uni student and I didn't think I could do the extra couple of years.
The best place in the library was the rare books section... the smell of the books and the history contained in that section was so cool...

I used to volunteer at my school library to get out of homeroom and study hall. It gave me an actual quiet place to do homework.
Eventually they put me in charge of periodicals. That meant I got a key to the room where they stored back issues. Perfect place to hide when I was skipping gym. (I was great at excuses, but you need some place where you won't be found when you are skipping class.)
Especially considering that most librarians are (in my head) plump old ladies.Although 'doing librarian' does have a bit of a ring to it...I like the sound of that! ;DSo do a lot of people, apparently. :)
(I never would have guessed that 'librarian porn' was a fetish until a few years ago. I was... surprised, to say the least.)

Sorry, I couldn't resist. I tried to purge it from my mind all day, and just couldn't. :)

Alright damnit I'm going in.....
(blaaaarghhhh)
morning.
looking forward to gaming tonight. but otherwise, not so thrilled about the day. it's rainy and this is making me want to go back to bed so badly.

Whoa whoa WHOA!
I'll give you that it's a good movie, but MOST "so-cheesy-it's-awesome"? I think not.

Morning, all. What did I miss?
*cracks knuckles*
weeeeeellllllll.....
Grandma was washing laundry at the farm when Jodi burst in, complaining about the horde of tiny zombies living in her unmentionables drawer. Meanwhile, across town, todd was sleeping with janet and....damnit janet.

That seems to be a theme today, everybody here (including me) was not feeling it this morning.
yeah, it's not helping that I overcaffeinated yesterday. I needed the calm so I could not pass out from stress over my stupid test, but I was sleepy zombie for the rest of the night. Still having my morning coffee cause caffeine withdrawal is not fun, but it's making me extra sleepy.
(No, that's not backwards. Caffeine+ADHD = calm and tired.)
Ugh. Had to re-do store closing again this morning. >.>
Paperwork missing. Getting really annoyed now.

Morning, all. What did I miss?
Well, after publishing their report on the effects of the new industry regulations regarding vending machines in the work place and their effects on employee productivity, Brandon and Carlos found themselves on the wrong side of the conflict between the Senior VP for Marketing and the Senior VP for Personnel. Meanwhile, Lucinda and Christine finally gave in to their secret passion, while at the same time keeping their trysts a secret from Lucinda's overly jealous pet dachsund, Belvedre. And, across town, a series of mysterious explosions rocked the zoo near the penguin exhibit....No, wait! That's my soap opera.

Don't make me call the Johns in to take care of you.
Good Morning (and a RSS feed would be nice on someone's blog. Just sayin)So...there's TWO emails I haven't gotten from KQ. Weird.
Mornin', everybody.
I'd say, if there is something you want on someone's blog, you should use said blog to contact them. Also, don't assume they know how to do this RSS feed thing. If you can give them pointers, it will probably help immensely and be appreciated. ;D

I suppose it's too much to hope for that the world could suddenly start revolving around our schedules?

That would be AWESOME. That means I would have Friday off for Job fair and BF's grad party. :D
Yea....let's do that Lynora.
