Another round of interviews

[sfllaw]

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!)

[sfllaw]

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.

[icedrake]

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.)

[sfllaw]

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.

Curses. Foiled by my own convincing arguments.
