Grown daughter of Laurence. Porn, scandal, etc.

Oh! And Tim's show, Terriers. I want to see that too.

I keep thinking his show is called Beagles!

I cried with frustration yesterday at a (theatre) meeting, and today I have a crying hangover. My eyes still hurt and I feel all blergy and sad.

Also, I am trying to hire a student and I found one that my boss and I both liked. It was our first one, so I suggested we do a phone interview with another student, who I was OK with and my boss hated. My boss seems to think I am resisting hiring the first girl, but I think until she kept asking me if I was OK with it, I was OK with it, and the more she asks me, the less OK I am with hiring her.

I think people at home should totally get to click.

Well, he doesn't go in for the Brazilian. He's fairly bushy. I can't even tell if he's circumcized from those pictures.

I can verify that he does have a penis, though.

Just hire her then, right? Don't let your boss mess with your first instinct.

What Would Happen if Two Planets Collided?

The energy in such a collision would dwarf the sweatiest nightmares of any Hollywood writer — or religiously-motivated apocalyptic preacher, for that matter. The two planets, each massing sextillions of tons, would ram each other at speeds of 20 or more kilometers per second. The energy released would be trillions of times that of all our nuclear weapons combined.

Awesome!

Hivemind question, specially for those who know NOLA culture - on my trip next week I will be doing some networking meetings with people I already know who work in the green rebuilding field down there. So not really an interview, but I do want to be professional. I'm thinking of wearing roughly what I wear to the office - skirt and blouse or button-down. Do I need to wear closed-toe shoes or can I get away with nice sandals?

My experience with NOLA is that it is very casual in dress, and not just the tourists but the business people.

However, Dana or Daisy or Nora or ita could report better on that.

With some of the older institutions, I would say closed toed, but I think your green jobs would be fine with nice open toed.

I agree with Daisy Jane.

Just don't go onto Chowhound and ask if it's OK to go out to dinner in shorts. (it is apparently A Thing for the more traditional on CH)

These Cakewrecks made me laff: [link]
