Imponderable Watercooler - Book Worm by FlyVote

umm maybe you have the flu Jonny...

Ok I am really unhappy with our school's email server(which crashes CONSTANTLY)

I have to email this letter of reccomendation to my friend ASAP and ( since in their infinite wisdom they block access to ALL outside email systems and servers) now I can't.

Which really screws things up!

server. Which also means I can't get emails and I was waiting for MisterG to tell me I could buy something...

Heard the news Drive fans? Really pissed now. Forming a plan to collaborate with other folks in making a show/shows by/for people who want to watch their kinda TV. I'd love to see the fic writers from various boards tell stories. Kinda like the Twilight Zone only with reoccurring stories and characters. Revolve through various stories and 'verses throughout a season. I'd love to see Firefly one week, Drive another, some horror series the next, maybe a romance/adventure storyline, and something to do with a Post Zombie Apocolyptic world.

Damn! I just want something to look forward to on TV.

But on a brighter note, I got an IM from my friend Magrid today in Norway. She's a rep for Ekornes, a big chair vendor of ours. We've discussed Firefly before, and she said she'd try to locate a copy of the series.
Well, she found one, and loves it. I was sooo pleased. We had a good time this AM discussing the series, and I pointed her to various Serenifly sites for more info.

I have a theory that within every thread there are sub-threads (okay that part isn't new) that are quite sub-liminal and unintentional on the part of the participants. These threads are invariably self-revelatory and are invariably about sex. (Kind of the saw about meetings: whatever they are talking about, they are talking about money.) Observe:

Luckily day is improving somewhat and I am far less tired today than I was yesterday. I'm letting the kids watch a movie today and tomorrow because they have just reviewed their little brains out and the big high stakes testing starts Monday ( it's the end of year test that No Child Left Behind requires where I am forced to give my students tests 3-5 grade levels above their current ability and if they don't do better on it then the kids who took it last year, my school loses funding and I could lose my job)I will not go on as it will become an insane 4 page rant...I just want them to have a brain break so they go into the test not totally burned out.

Feelin' ya MSG. We have little or no data on the outcomes of our kids and the tribe has been frantically trying to link all the health and human service records for the last year. Problem is that the kids we service are from out of area for the most part. I can only imagine the strain NCLB has caused for other services such as yours.

So I had this dream this morning. I'll be posting it Blogwise soon. I met the successor of the Dalai Lama. His curiousity was astounding. We watched a few movies and hung out. It was strange. Like spending down time with a friend.
