Ok, Noah, it's stopped here too but I hate it all wet. AZ dries up in two seconds. I think I have owned two umbrellas in my life and I don't even think I used them. I always left them at home!

Spandex is good................................on the right people. A 400lb woman with purple spandex is not the right person

Arrgggggg!

We are fighting network problems at work. One of our switches just decided to not switch.

Insert string of profanity here.

Of course one of my two computers was on that switch. The worst part is that is the one that streams Pandora. It was real quiet here for a while.

The other switches were mostly full. We re-arranged things between the three remaining switches and one of them is a 10-100 old sucker. Of course it will never die. We have cables run in some stupid ways right now but we are connected.

We just ordered a rack mount gigabit switch 24 port and that will force us to restring the wires. Long overdue.

That's 'cause you're Asian. They have no freakin' clue how old you are. In a police lineup, they wouldn't be able to tell the difference between you, a 16 year-old teenager, or a 50 year-old woman (all Asian, of course).

I guess you would know that from personal experience.

I lived in Hawaii for many years. I learned to tell the difference from Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Filipino and so on. The new to the island Haoles were amazed that anyone could tell the difference.

I hear that all white people look the same to the citizens of Japan or China.

Glen, people still never guess I am Vietnamese. I am the genetic mutation of a Vietnamese gal. I am Amazon, not petite like the rest of them. I am almost 5'6" and have a tush. Ha! When I went back, I towered over both the men and women. Some people blame it on the American food but two of my sisters are 5'0 even and are petite.

I am a mutant.

Good luck on the interview Tweeze.

You see this Glen? Makes me laugh. I used to manage part of their infrastructure.

Wow, who needs Starbucks... That picture will wake you right up!

Glen, I hate computer problems. I am not a computer person so that would not be a good thing.

I am such a lame excuse for a girl. Saw a gorgeous Coach purse for $360 and said nah, that could be used for a ticket to go surfing or towards the Porsche fund. Lame, I tell you...

I am chatty today. I need to shut up.

Hey now! First, I wish I had a tush like that! I wouldn't be interviewing for a job. That gal is sadly probably making four times as much as I do.

Besides, I should hope all of you think I will get the job because I am sooooooo smart and charming.

You're a very practical sweetheart, and that probably is your tush you just wont let on.

She'd need to make as much as she can in a short time frame. Her window of employability is probably about 1/8'th as long as ours.
