evile: happy humpday!
SkyeDS: indeed
evile: I'm sleepy today.
evile: Stepford Wives was dumb, but kinda fun & cute.
SkyeDS: looks like it would be
evile: I adore Christopher Walken. He is so sexy. And Glenn Close
looked like she was having a blast.
SkyeDS: have you seen the music video he made?
SkyeDS: I like him too
evile: nope. I have no access to music videos
SkyeDS: he made one for this song by Fat Boy Slim
evile: That's why I love him, he'll do anything.
SkyeDS: he's a cook too
evile: & he and his wife have been together since before he was
successful and are very much CF
evile: Matthew Broderick, otoh, scares theliving hell out of me..he
still looks like ferris bueller.
SkyeDS: lot of cute kids didn't grow up to be cute adults
evile: *nods*
SkyeDS: sineater has the video on dvd, you'd like it
evile: Now I'm curious to read the original book & see the 1970s
Stepford Wives.
SkyeDS: have read the original book
SkyeDS: it's like 8th grade reading level but the premise is
interesting
evile: *nods*
evile: One major problem I always have with voting liberal is the
fact that they won't kill people who need killin'. I cant believe
this crap!

SkyeDS: I vote libertarian often as not but I'm not going to do t hat
in wartime
evile: *nods*
evile: I can't decide if it's sicker to abuse the kids that came from
your own body to death, or to adopt them and abuse them to death. I
mean, WTF...
evile: If you don't like kids & figure all you'd do is beat 'em, do
like me and don't HAVE them.
SkyeDS: apparently neither can California, where the penalty for
abusing other people's kids is stiffer than keeping it in the family
evile: do adoptees count as 'other peoples kids' though? or are they
yours once you fill out the paperwork and take them home & lock them
in the basement to live in their own filth?
SkyeDS: legally an adopted child is yours
SkyeDS: as if you gave birth
evile: so the law would go easy on you for adopting a kid and then
beating it to death.
SkyeDS: it shouldn't :(
evile: Nope.
evile: and anyone who abuses children isn't fixable, from everything
I've ever read.
evile: But it makes somebody more money to keep them in prison than
to just kill them and put them out of our misery.
SkyeDS: sineater is done w/ his interview, said he thinks it went well
<fingers tightly crossed>
evile: awesome :)
evile: When does he think he'll something back from them?
SkyeDS: didn't say yet
SkyeDS: he's on his way back here
evile: oh, cool.
evile: Y'all coming to polydinner tonight?
SkyeDS: probably not
SkyeDS: Arthur will have been by himself all day and sineater will be in
a hurry to get home
evile: aha. OK.
SkyeDS: horses will have to be fed too
evile: *nods*
SkyeDS: alrighty, sineater is taking over my brain
evile: OK.
sineater: how yoos?
evile: workin. owie from krav maga Monday, still.
evile: How's with you?
sineater:: ah
sineater: ok i think
sineater:: interview seemed to go well
sineater:: so, could be
evile: where at?
sineater: inovant, a visa subsidiary
evile: aha. cool.
sineater: doing support/troubleshooting for verified by visa
evile: *nods*
evile: One of our 2 friends at Dell 'permanent' is looking again.
Seems he got wind of a little move to Singapore.
sineater:: oh fuck, who?
sineater:: is looking i mean
evile: I don't know if you've met him --the male half of "J&K"
sineater:: ...? eh?
sineater:: short haired sales guy at poly?
evile: Nope. That's Jeff. I think he's already left Dell.
sineater:: ah. smart :)
sineater:: well it was a "j"
evile: He was temp.
sineater:: pfeh. everyone is a temp at d e double hockeyticks
sineater:: here. let me show you how squeeze the fish. "sqoooork"
evile: pretty much. Out of everyone I know, I have 2 friends who are
permanent out there. One is Max, who will never leave because hes ADA
protected.
sineater:: ah. lucky
sineater:: you know mike, too
evile: Your friend Mike? I've met him. Last I heard of him he'd been
laid off shortly after you were. Haven't heard anything since, or
talked to him..
sineater:: oh, that's been a while hasn't it... he went back in 02 as
temp and got permed in 9 months
sineater:: he got married, last sept
evile: poor guy.
sineater:: shrug... she is a really nice grl and they fit pretty well
together
sineater:: oh, you mean poor guy working for d___... oh ayuh, i getcha
sineater:: :P
evile: so I guess he dumped the skank he was with when I met him.
Just from the way he talked about her I was thinking "lordy, what a
trainwreck!"
sineater:: if that's who i think it was, yes, quite. he met this girl
after he was laid off
evile: (I'm getting better==I didn't say it out loud )
sineater:: snarfle
evile: I'm getting nervous--I'm on speaking terms with everyone I
know and there's no major drama anywhere. Looking skyward for
anvils...
sineater:: no, this girl is much better. she reminds me a lot of Sister H
evile: sounds nice.
sineater:: heh. !!!lookout!!!
sineater:: wile. e coyote syndrome
evile: no s*it, right...things are not supposed to be this quiet,
calm, and normal.
sineater:: it must be a plot.
evile: Of course, we haven't gotten a call from Brother A, or a call from
jail or morgue ABOUT Brother A, either...*worry*
sineater:: ummmmmmm
sineater:: sigh
evile: I'm assuming The Rubber Pig would be on the phone to everyone if he'd
come back to her.
sineater:: yeah, probably to get some other relative to babysit her kids
again
sineater:: what a bitch.
evile: heh. I am assuming she never returned my call because she
realized i was not available for goods or services of any kind.
sineater:: could very well be. :(((((
sineater: grr. rahrrr. snarf!
evile: heh. we're all better off without her.
sineater:: d'accord
evile: I'm just sad you never got to meet her face to face. We could
have had much better snark that way.
sineater:: going to call the recruiter now. love yas; l8trz d00d
evile: *hugs*
SkyeDS: <bk
evile: wb :)
SkyeDS: I still think he's off hiding somewhere nursing hurts/wounds,
and sineater says he is very sensitive to I told you so type recrimination
SkyeDS: as I would think we all are...
evile: well, sure, but I wish he'd maybe just call the machine during
the day and say "I'm in San Antonio, doing ___, I 'm safe"--heaven
knows I"m not at home more often than I AM at home.
evile: He's got a key to my house. My fear is that I'll just come
home one day and he'll be on the couch with his stuff.
SkyeDS: that would stink very much bad in here occifer
evile: yeah. Not like I would kick him out...but in that case it will
be very good to have mean ol' Sweetie around to lay down the law.
SkyeDS: they are handy in those circumstances, as pockets on shirts
and noses on faces
evile: Yup. I'm very good about talking boundaries, less good at
enforcing.
SkyeDS: <guilty as charged on that count myself
evile: Oh well. awareness of faults is good because it gives a chance
to work on them.
evile: I can't wait to go grocery shopping tomorrow :)
evile: I want to make another batch of pesto.
SkyeDS: love good pesto
evile: I have an interesting recipe that I've made with success twice
now. I want to now try a more traditional one, and then a sundried
one.
SkyeDS: <need a big enough mortar & pestle to make it the right way
evile: food processor, baby. I got one at Target for $20
SkyeDS: would like to try it at least once the old way, just for the
experience
evile: *nod* But mortar & pestle is small, expensive, and not as
versatile as a little food processor.
SkyeDS: true
SkyeDS: but I'm supposed to have a decent sized m&p anyway, for other
reasons than cooking
evile: personally I would not mix magic tools with kitchen tools, any
more than I'd use the coffe grinder for pesto-making or my soapmaking
dishes for stew. too many toxic ingredients/possible residues.
SkyeDS: that's true
SkyeDS: would have to make pesto in it just once, before I ever did
anything else with it
evile: there ya go.
SkyeDS: sineater sez:
SkyeDS: been spendin most our lives livin in an amish paradise
SkyeDS: churned butter once or twice, livin in an amish paradise
evile: *grins*
evile: My aunt Cora in OK had us make butter once. It's a great way
to keep kids out of trouble.
SkyeDS: oh gawd, forgot all about that. i have a rammstein qoute as
my sig on my old account
evile: heh.
SkyeDS: Herrgott, er weiss ich will kein Engel sein! :)
evile: *shrug* Not one of my languages.
SkyeDS: phhh. that's what babelfish is for :)
evile: babelfish is...odd sometimes.
SkyeDS: like bruce sterling, i put great stock in machine translation
SkyeDS: oh true... mechanical translation is in its infancy yet
evile: "Please to use toothbrush in head"
SkyeDS: or for a real hoot try translating a japanese page... ook
evile: wow.
SkyeDS: if you don't already know what your're reading about you have
no idea what you're reading about
evile: Luckily you got a bit of Japanese in college, so you don't
have to rely 100% on the machine.
SkyeDS: no, only 90% :/
evile: heh.
SkyeDS: smell something hot (like wiring or solder) can't find it and
its driving me nuts
evile: hm.
SkyeDS: and netscape has done the magna fuckya, which in 98 means you
can't kill the thread so you have a msg box until you reboot :(
evile: ick.
