OTFPOTD - 12/2 LATE
I know Gomez had dibs, but it's almost 10:30, and there's nothing yet. And I saved the HTML code for my FanPost that got trumped yesterday...
Oh NOEZ! The price of the "12 Days of Christmas" list went up almost 11% this year. It'll now cost a mere $86,609 to buy 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a-milking, etc... I'd bet that the price of gold and the price of gas (and the fact that airlines and UPS and a bunch of other places haven't taken away their fuel surcharges quite yet, in spite of the price of gas halving recently) had something to do with it...
Yesterday was my wife's birthday. She wanted a Home Depot shopping spree. Now I'm really wondering who wears the pants in the family. Okay, so I got her a dozen roses, too.
I shot two eagles on Saturday. Of course, this could mean many things, so I'll just post a link instead.
My Powerbook G4 plug broke yesterday morning. BAAAAH! Must've been the yin to the yang of getting another copy of the awesome photo printer I use at home for free (it was broken, the gal who sold me the ink cartidges said, but I was able to fix it). So, if I can get the broken pin out, I can probably just get a new power supply. But if not, I need to figure out what I can do to get a new laptop. I don't really have the money for a newer one, so I may just have to scrounge together $3-400 to get another G4 Powerbook.
So we talked about favorite Christmas songs. Since Christmas Story turns 25 this year, let's talk about favorite Christmas movies. Least-favorites, too. I'm certain we've done this before, but what the hey. We have new folks around since the last time we discussed them...

There's a new seating chart up at work
there’s six of them floating around all by the same admin, and she hasn’t managed to spell my first or last name right on any of them, and they’re all spelled differently. One reads “Davis.” One reads “Dalis.” One reads “Fuckisima”
The latest one is by far my favorite – “Fuku8shma”
Yes. She really put an eight in my name.

That’s terrible, and it saddens me that there are so many people that can’t handle basic spelling, especially when it is somebody’s name. She obviously knows your name, and can’t even correctly type it while (presumably) looking at it

The amusing thing is that not only does she have no idea how to spell or pronounce it, this is just continuing to prove that she doesn't proofread anything before posting it
and that’s not good for an administrative assistant…
And yes, my name is correctly spelled in the company directory. And on my nametag (which was made by a different, much more diligent admin). And to be quite frank, my first name is not hard to spell. And it’s not too hard to figure out that I don’t have an 8 in my name either
by seattlebruin on Dec 2, 2008 10:32 AM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Your first name doesn't even have alternate spellings
I understand when people use the wrong spelling of my first name, but with yours it is inexcusable. And I’m fairly positive that human names, first or last, do not include randomly placed numbers

I had not heard this

That was before they switched to wanting to go CG
From what I understand, all the original cast members really like doing VO work for the game, and realized that a movie done in the same manner would be much easier, and more faithful to what they’ve always wanted. Hell, Aykroyd has mentioned before that the original script for 3 was written to have Chris Farley in as one of the “new guys” that the originals would train, but then he died. They have had the idea of the old guys training replacements for a while, but it never worked itself out
