I would just like to announce that Manpower's Training and Development Center online program is

STUPID

and

EVIL!I got one question wrong because I *gasp* CLOSED the BODY tag (which you're supposed to do), and another one wrong where I capitalised the word 'Arial'. HTML is not case-sensitive, boys and girls. It doesn't care. I could write ( Read more... )

I managed to do something stupid to SuDoy today that has me taking him to Scooty's tomorrow to have him checked. I hope I didn't hurt him seriously. I'll be quite annoyed with myself it I did ( Read more... )

I hate it when the guy at AutoZone walks away from me while I'm trying to talk to him. Yes, I'm a woman. No, I don't know stacks about cars, but that doesn't give you the right to be rude to me. At least I got the info I wanted. SuDoy's 'check engine' light tripped Saturday on the way home. It's an EGR code, and the car seems to run fine, so I ( Read more... )

I've started getting spam on my livejournal email account, which, of course, forwards to a real email address I have. I hate spammers.

I just discovered http://www.RadioFreeSyrup.com have taken content from my Klingon journal and posted it on their website as a report from "The Klingon Empire". It has a picture of a tank next to it: it's part of a post I made last summer about my job. They appear to only have two ( Read more... )

Just a quick note before I forget: I saw Avenue Montaigne yesterday at the County and I thought it was great. There are some great witty moments and the music was wonderful. I need to get the soundtrack for this film, if only for the excellent classical piano pieces (one of the characters is a concert pianist ( Read more... )

Reader's Digest is apparently having a sale on its subscription rates. They've called a few times, according to Dad, and of course he hasn't picked up the phone. I picked it up today, and when I relayed the 'no, we don't want to renew' message to the woman on the phone, she proceeded to go into her 'well, I know you want to reduce the number of ( Read more... )

I got invited to an elite pillage on Puzzle Pirates this afternoon and completely forgot that The Prisoner was on BBC America at 4pm. It was an episode which is on disc 6 of my collection (the only one which doesn't work, natch) and I was going to tape it so I could have those episodes. I stopped three-quarters of the way through the series ( Read more... )

I hate it when a fleet officer asks for help with a pillage, waits until I've got a station, then uses the order command twice in twelve seconds to tell me to do another station. It takes a few seconds for a human being to notice they've been ordered, leave the station they're on, and move to another station. Apparently this FO is too used to ( Read more... )
