Why do I love google today?
Because I can type in “Make Jam with Brian at [address] 7pm thursday” and it says “entered!” and there it is, with the proper time filled in, and the location clickable for the map, and everything. Love. It.
Meanwhiles, perhaps you’d like to see some amusing bit of dialogue:
Alex: So, I’m on the new contract. In my first morning, I’ve almost finished the work slated for the entire week. I have a feeling I may end up bored a lot…
Me: *sends you resume*
Alex: Hmmm, yes… very interesting. What’s this bit here about sheep?
Me: I noticed there was a gap in the market for USB sheep. So I made one.
Alex: Excellent. Any special uses for the wool from a USB sheep?
Me: It’s excellent for making a fiber-haptic network. This network is particularly ruggedized for inclement weather.
Alex: Given your location, that sounds quite important. Perhaps I will suggest such improvements here in Boston.
Me: You may just want to have them hire me – I’ve patented the fiber-haptic network. I’m about to go after a few competitors that have had the gall to create fiber-haptic networks without paying a license fee. You’d be surprised at how many people are trying to jump into this market!
It’s utter shit for data, mind you.
If big companies think they can trample over your sheep patents by SHEAR force of will, they are sadly mistaken. You will be HERD, lawyer or not. They will not pull the wool over your eyes. Don’t let them get your goat, fight fight fight!
Hey! What happens in the fan club STAYS in the fan club!
No, what happens in the fan club makes a messy stain that is impossible to remove without a Magic Eraser and some elbow grease.
he did at least TELL alex he was posting it. in my DON’T TELL, DON’T TELL community on LJ, as long as you ask permission, we OK it.
I’s kidding.
I know, but I would like to be corrected if I’m wrong in my assumption.
