Another round of interviews

Oct 15, 2004 20:07

Here I am hacking on a manual for WvStreams, as I travel by train to Toronto. That's actually a layover for my trip to Waterloo. We're heading down there to hire another round of co-op students, this time for Winter 2005. Along the way, we'll feed and water them (for a much deserved mid-term break.)

1) No! Not... *turducken*!!

2) Point of order: "expatriates" means people exiled from their country of or place of birth. "ex-patriots" means people who used to love their country, but no longer do.

3) So with all this talk of Montreal bagels, I don't suppose there's one there for me to find out what all the fuss is about? (heard about the bloody things from three separate people by now, and *still* haven't gotten to try one!)

1) Yes!

2) I believe that all three people for whom I'm bringing bagels no longer love their pays. Of course, we are quibbling over a technicality, are we not?

3) I only have a limited supply, and they're actually frozen. You're really just going to have to resort to visiting Montréal sometime.

Yeah, I was just nitpicking while waiting for my soup to be done. It still isn't :(

I WANT BAGELS!
Hell, even if it's only the hype, I want to know and be able to say, "I've tried them, and I don't know what all the fuss is about." Come on, not even half? I'll exchange it for some vareniki w/ cherries... I doubt you've tried those recently!

(And turducken is still wrong.)

Oof. If you're going to just complain about them, you might as well go to the mecca, try the freshest bagel and do that. I'm not going to feed you sub-standard bagels and then have you go around campus saying that they're bad.

Sweet! I'll see you at the party, Simon! ;)

I'll be making some other stuff to bring to the party...particularly for people who will die by eating the Turducken *cough*Snuggles*cough*

Oh, I didn't know that about Snuggles. I'm sure you'll bring something delicious though.

Alas, I'll be unable to make any substantial contribution, since I don't even have a kitchen here anymore.
