| I might imagine that your coworkers rarely think of you at all. Sure they do! Whenever they need a favor, or a deadline is approaching, or one of the sod-heads trying to trouble-shoot a system can't seems to tell his elbow from a hole in the ground - that's when they think of me. Meh ... it's a reg... |

| There's a place in Huntington Beach that makes these things (and things is what they are). Some of us toured their facility with the idea of adapting some of their technology to a Hallowe'en robot, since touching one is like touching a corpse.

I predict that Micro$oft will adjust to web standards just as much as the "Big Three" automakers adjusted to the demands of their respective marketplace.
That is, not at all, until it's too late. |

There is something about women's postures that catches my eye whenever they wear high heels. The way they walk in heels is also fascinating to watch.
