So, now that the furlough is over, do you know when you'll be back to work?

First thing Monday morning, right back to the grindstone.

[KilljoyBob]

That's good, though, right? Human interaction, paychecks, NASA videos. All good things for our Ogre.

Yeah, all good things. They keep me from falling back into my anti-social homicidal rages, all good things. ;)

[Ogre_Minstrel]

But then the morning DC commute ... Did someone mention homicidal rages?


Oh, it was me? NM

[Ogre_Minstrel]

So, who's cold? You cold? You? Hey you! You cold?

Yeah, we're cold. Thanks for asking. Its fucking cold.

[KilljoyBob]

But it's supposed to get warmer this weekend. So there's that.

[Ogre_Minstrel]

70 degrees today.


HOT ENOUGH FOR YA?!?!?

[KilljoyBob]

Meanwhile, we're dealing with a deep freeze again where I'm at.

[Ogre_Minstrel]

Today, snow and ice.

I need a trip to someplace sunny and warm... like the arctic circle.

[Trebor]

Ah, the desert. I've been wanting to wear shorts the last few days.

Seriously, I keep telling you guys to move to Australia. Its summer here and even when its winter you don't have to have anything to do with snow unless you actively choose to...

You have to go to a mountain to experience snow...

When I was a kid living in England, my class did a learning segment on Australia. I became obsessed with the country. I had a pin that was the Australian flag. I collected Australian coins. My cousin who was in college knew someone from Australia, and she kindly answered all the little kid questions I wrote to her.

Later, I developed a crush on Nicole Kidman. I wonder if the two are connected.

Isn't it true that everything in Australia is either poisonous or is otherwise actively trying to kill you?

Just listened to a recent Dollop podcast from Australia where they told a story about 2 German guys who were basically shipwrecked (Planewrecked?) and everything was trying to kill them.

Sounds friendly.

[Soylent Daveage]

Not everything...

I'm in Australia and I'm not poisonous. And I'm not actively trying to kill you...

I mean if the opportunity crops up...
