Female A: “Why are you handing me a green dress and white-go-go boots?”
Male B: “We’re LARPing Power Puff Girls. I’ve got three sales guys in chimp suits ready to be punched.”
I seem to have misplaced 17 years of progress. Some of this also visible at @UimanGwbench on Twitter

When I got in this morning, the bogus symbols again had ISIN values. I have blanked those ISIN values out again.

Well, the future roots are uncertain, and the end is always near.

{Cow-orker} does make the excellent subtle point that most of my work-related e-mails take the general attitude of blues song, like:
“Boom Boom Boom Boom, gonna shoot book quotes right down.”
“Vendor files don’t do me no good. Drop their bogus symbols, I wish they would.”
“Last night in the Ops Room, sitting round with my mates, I fixed daily futures charts, because settles came in late. Now, weren’t that a man?”
“I write forty-seven miles of e-mails, wear a CAT-5 cable for a necktie. Got a brand new house on the roadside made of discarded monitor boxes.”

As Jedi RobMo said once, “Scuse me, while I kill this guy.”

Well, as Muddy Waters once sang, “I want you to rock me, baby, like my SQL database got no primary key.”

Blues scholars were puzzled for years about the meaning of this.

from the back files: Halloween / Wrongness in Mah Brain
From: UIM

To: Frage
Subject: RE: wrongness in mah brain
I smiled at {cow-orker} today, and asked, “Isn’t it a beautiful morning?”
He looked scared and baffled.
I said, “It’s my Halloween costume. A cheerful, optimistic man, with a girlfriend. No one will suspect it is me.”

I am always afraid that HR will tranq dart me, stick me in an observation room, and have you and Cletus (evil cop, slow cop) torture me to show the kids why they want to learn to control their tempers.
