Time for some NPR/Zombie fanfic: Wait Wait Don't Eat Me
It would be really funny if someone here had written that....
Wouldn't it?
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

ok hivemind I am seeking advice. I have written how there is some non-work stuff going on at work. It seems clear that a handful of people are taking steps on company time to start their own company. Would you all call an Ombuds office with the info? If you could do it anon?

My brother and I are very different looking but our mannerisms and speech patterns are so ridic similar that most people comment on how alike we are when they meet us.
Very very true.
I think my Italian/Swedish thing was less based on looks and more of a "your accent is way too good for an Anglo-Saxon and you're tall" thing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I think I would.

Welllllll, I spent about 1/4 of my time during my last few months at my previous job hunting for, and eventually landing, my current job. With my manager's approval. Hell, we traded job leads, as our skill sets didn't have us in competition. Then again, the director whose organization included my previous job was doing his level best to eliminate it, so I felt it was self-preservation.
Is your office screwing people over in a dramatic fashion, msbelle? If so, I'd let it ride.

msbelle, I think I would. I think creating something at work is very different from just using work resources.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I saw your brother on the train this morning. I think you have very similar smiles.

Um, read back about ten entries in the Fan Fiction II topic for more on this.

When I was in high school and college my mother would sometimes be mistaken for my sister, or worse, my date.
My ancestors were French, English, Swedish, and Czech, but mostly Czech and I probably look somewhat Czech-ish.
