Morning blob and prog. How goes it?

[King Postwhore]

Stop in NY on your way back. We'll have a drink. 

Philadelphia again on the way back Friday.

Stop in Oz on your way back too!




I'm not good at geography.

And the flying monkeys can handle my luggage.

Making no progress on the music for my video, so instead I'm killing time putting way too much effort into making the thumbnail.

[Hyperplex]

Morning all.

[ReaperKK]

Morning Hyper

Sitting at work, wondering why I'm paid less than people who don't know what the fuck they're doing.

Catch a Phillies game while you're there.

Reading comprehension and proper attention span are skills. Apparently my boss doesn't have either. The amount of times she glosses over whatever she gets in her inbox and then responds with either factually incorrect assumptions or improper criticism is almost uncountable. And then when she is shown her error, she either responds with some sort of comment that further proves she has no idea what is going on, makes a remark that is totaly indecipherable with regards to whatever the topic is, or simply retreats in silence because there simply isn't anything more to say.

I guess when you become rich and powerful, normal plebian skills like reading, understanding, and communicating become unnecessary.

Whatever you do, do NOT wear sportsball attire for any city other than Philadelphia.  You could end up in the hospital.

G'morning all. Dragging a little after getting home late from the Paul McCartney show last night (which was excellent).

[hefdaddy42]

Hey-ho.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

Now that the wife works downtown again, we can meet up for lunch now.  Checked out a BBQ place in town we hadn't been to yet.  She got the pulled chicken quesadilla, we got the BBQ pork nachos, and I got a brisket sandwich.  T'was pretty good, several strips of brisket.

Cut along the grain, not across it.  So very disappointing.  How in God's name do you run a BBQ joint and not know to cut across brisket grain?  I'm a complete amateur and I know better than to serve people brisket like that.  I asked the waitress if it always comes like that.  She wasn't really sure, she basically only serves it.  I explained the whole reasoning behind how the meat should be cut (nicely, of course), and that cutting across would make for a much more enjoyable piece of meat for their customers.  She said sometimes they have new people in the back, sometimes they get so busy, the dishwasher is even cutting meat.  Whatever.  It was still GOOD, but I was bummed at something a really pro BBQ joint would never ever do.

[hefdaddy42]

That really IS pretty basic. 

At least it was still good.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

The additional problem for me is that my teeth do not align the way they should. Where most peoples' bottom teeth go behind their top teeth to cut through stuff, my teeth meet in the middle, but don't touch, so there's a small gap there. So it's difficult for me to bite through anything tough, without pulling it all out. I bite into a burger and pull the whole sheet of lettuce out. I bite into a piece of pizza and sometimes pull the whole sheet of cheese off. Another reason why "with the grain" brisket was so disappointing.

Getting braces to fix this is on the list of many things I'd love to do some day, but am not likely to actually do.

I believe it. They're worse than New York fans.

It's why I'm changing my specialty. I have spent the last few days doing an online pentesting course. It's so much more intriguing. I'm still going to keep up with my networking knowledge though. That is a huge part of pentesting, especially knowing TCP/IP inside out.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

I believe it. They're worse than New York any other fans anywhere.

View from my hotel room.

[Prog Snob]

I don't see a wet bar anywhere.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

I missed the post that said where you were going.

[King Postwhore]

John-- See Untapped.

Coz, you no follow me brother?


 . I'm in Erie, PA for a managers meeting all week.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

Actually, now that you say that, it does sound familiar.  My memory is pretty shot lately.

[King Postwhore]

Evening. Just got back to the hotel.   Lightweight, I know.  Got a few beers in me and turned to bourbon on the rocks.  Now just chilling before the day of training.

[ReaperKK]

Morning fellas

[BlobVanDam]

I have to get back into my "routine". But it's so hard to wake up before 2pm. 

[Prog Snob]
