chicken is very flavorful if you eat all the good parts like dark meat, skin and fat.

My high-school friend Adam, whom I have Googled perhaps more than anyone in an effort to find out what he's up to (unsuccessfully, I should add), has found me on MySpace. Sweet. Apparently he's married, which is only funny because we always thought he was in the closet.

HaHA!

THANK YOU, JESUS.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:08 (twenty years ago)

Criminy.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:18 (twenty years ago)

You'd think I would have gotten a lot of work done today, what with the poxyfuling... that would be incorrect.

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:20 (twenty years ago)

I did, surprisingly. Not surprisingly, I am still fixated on the woman who rudely rested her newspaper on my head this morning on the train.

― The Milkmaid (82375538-A) (The Milkmaid), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:21 (twenty years ago)

I did until the printer went low on toner, and I am using that as an excuse to not do any more work, since it's not like I've tried to fix it or alerted anyone or anything.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:21 (twenty years ago)

I got...some work done today.

― Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:24 (twenty years ago)

I got a whole lot done today, but most of it was social.

― Man Man (kenan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:34 (twenty years ago)

I was in a training class all afternoon, and I was paranoid about the smell of my squid salad so I threw it away before I was really done.

― Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:35 (twenty years ago)

I know, "squid salad"

― Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:35 (twenty years ago)

All you want to do is sit around and pout
And now I got enough and so I'm getting out

I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow

I been in the doghouse so doggone long
That when I get a kiss I think that something's wrong

I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow

I'll go find a gal that wants to treat me right
You go get yourself a man that wants to fight

I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow

I remember back when you were nice and sweet
Things have changed, you'd rather fight than eat

I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow

I’m a rollin’ stone all alone and lost
For a life of sin I have paid the cost
When I pass by all the people say
Just another guy on the lost highway

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a woman’s lies makes a life like mine
O the day we met, I went astray
I started rolling down that lost highway

I was just a lad, nearly 22
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
And now I’m lost, too late to pray
Lord I take a cost, o the lost highway

Now boy’s don’t start to ramblin’ round
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound
Take my advice or you’ll curse the day
You started rollin’ down that lost highway

― Man Man (kenan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:40 (twenty years ago)

Didn't work at all. Never mind.

― Man Man (kenan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:40 (twenty years ago)

I was gonna say...?

― The Milkmaid (82375538-A) (The Milkmaid), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:42 (twenty years ago)

It's a Hank WIlliams thing. You wouldn't understand.

― Man Man (kenan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:42 (twenty years ago)

Oh WOULDN'T I?

― The Milkmaid (82375538-A) (The Milkmaid), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:43 (twenty years ago)

You're just not hick enough.

― Man Man (kenan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:48 (twenty years ago)

It's a U of C thing.

Kenan knows all [blank] things.

― regular roundups (Dave M), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:48 (twenty years ago)

Dave is starting to get it.

― Man Man (kenan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:51 (twenty years ago)

I want more Myspace friends. Add me.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:53 (twenty years ago)

Quality, John, not quantity.

― Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 20:54 (twenty years ago)

I refuse to join myspace. It is creepy.

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:05 (twenty years ago)

Oooooookay!

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:07 (twenty years ago)

Well, basically, I don't need another way for people I'd rather not be in contact with to get it contact with me. Plus the whole online-ass-shopping aspect of it does not appeal to me at all. Also, News Corporation.

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:19 (twenty years ago)

Third day in a row that my boss has, at 5:15, suddenly remembered something that "has" to be done before I leave. I would kill to have even one day a week in which I was able to leave after less than 9 hours.

― jonviachicago (jonviachicago), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:24 (twenty years ago)

I'm with you Dan.

People - I need a pity party. I got the bottom half of my deep cleaning and a cavity filled today and I'm totally numb and pitiful and I'm trying to eat an avocado bubble tea but I can't eat the tapioca because it's the same consistency as my numb tongue and I'm afraid of eating my own tongue and THEN when I think about that, I get really sick to my stomach and there's avocado shake running down my chin because I can't tell when that happens but THEN after I get over being a little ill I get really hungry because I had an early and small lunch and then the whole cycle repeats.

Jon, that's no good! Your boss needs to recognize.

― Safety First (pullapartgirl), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:37 (twenty years ago)

Jenny, I'm sorry. That reminds me of the story I was told by the surgeon who took my wisdom teeth out about someone who started eating solid foods to early and chewed his own tongue beyond recognition before it was too late. Eww!

― regular roundups (Dave M), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:50 (twenty years ago)

Dan, books or journals?

― regular roundups (Dave M), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:51 (twenty years ago)

Hi Jon! I'm Dave. Nice to meet you.

― regular roundups (Dave M), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 21:51 (twenty years ago)

Dan, books or journals?

Shit! Sorry, I saw it and then was poxy fuled all day. Astronomy Journals Group.

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:19 (twenty years ago)

Haha, shit. That's like 3 of the jobs I'm applying for. Did your department go through a big loss or something?

― regular roundups (Dave M), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:33 (twenty years ago)

People are constantly coming and going, and a lot of the positions that I know are open have been open for a while.

Which ones did you apply for?

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:35 (twenty years ago)

how do i shot charcoal in Chicago? gas station? Cub Foods?

― gbx (skowly), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:36 (twenty years ago)

Someone hang with me or I'll die.

― Whispy Fandango Triphop (unclejessjess), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:36 (twenty years ago)

sorry dude ;_;

― gbx (skowly), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:37 (twenty years ago)

Cub Food, d00d

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:40 (twenty years ago)

that's what i thought. coolio.

― gbx (skowly), Wednesday, 26 April 2006 23:49 (twenty years ago)

Drive up to Wisconsin, Jesse.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 27 April 2006 00:11 (twenty years ago)

I am going to apply for these:

Production Controller, General Journals Production
Astronomy Production Controller
Manuscript Editor, Astronomy Group
Editorial Assistant, Acquisitions
Project Assistant III

The last two are in books.

― regular roundups (Dave M), Thursday, 27 April 2006 00:24 (twenty years ago)

I wish I could.

You know something? There's nothing like going to the Home Depot to remind you HOW VERY VERY SINGLE YOU ARE. Happy. Domestic. COUPLES. Cheek. To. Jowl.

Also annoying at the HD--they made each intercom announcement 4 times back to back. "Ned to paint Ned to paint Ned to paint Ned to paint." Notice the lack of commas. That is apparently how the do things at the North Ave HD.

― Whispy Fandango Triphop (unclejessjess), Thursday, 27 April 2006 00:25 (twenty years ago)

And I am pretty much interested in that order as well, if you switch the 3rd and 4th positions.

― Whispy Fandango Triphop (unclejessjess), Thursday, 27 April 2006 00:33 (twenty years ago)

With my limited knowledge of your background, I'd say your best bet is either of the Assistant positions. Only because as far as I know the Manuscript Editor position requires knowledge of astronomy/astrophysics and the controller positions require quite a bit of graphics/desktop publishing experience. Of course, I don't know that much about your background!

― Holy makkara, Toivo! (OutDatWay), Thursday, 27 April 2006 00:43 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, the whole knowledge of astronomy thing was definitely a downside, but that's all good to know. Thanks.

― regular roundups (Dave M), Thursday, 27 April 2006 00:49 (twenty years ago)

I do have a little publishing experience. I worked for the Journal of Political Economy last summer basically running the peer review process.
