lol, sorry. We kinda strayed, its not as if I just started something out of the blue. And some people are no better than I am. And at the least, I can say 5 minutes ago miftah was going to bed but he's still here. I'm promoting activeness. :)
Actually you did start something out of the blue. They had a thread going reminiscing about a common place they worked at. The people this thread would be most relevant to were listed in the first post. You have no requirement to be active in every thread on the forum. If you want to start a thread to generate some serious discussion (or even not so serious, as long as it's not disrespectful to others) then feel free. But if your just going to keep stirring shit up, as Bio said, you can sit your ass in the corner. Most of us don't mind friendly banter and even some lively discussion, and pretty much everyone can handle themselves, but the instigation attitude is about played out.

If you know him, maybe you can explain why he seems to be creepily leering into that cubicle, as if waiting for his chance to steal away the last remnants of a half-eaten bagle.

Turns out that now my number 1 rule is live with someone before marrying them.

Must be working, Lady J and I have lived together now for close to 8 years(God bless her). :lol:

I think that's the best way to go....i've lived with 3 guys and except for the most recent relationship they all ended amicably.

I kinda sorta lived w/ my "soon to be" ex before we got hitched. We were both living in the dorms on Laughlin AFB and we just happened to live kitty corner from each other - his room was the living room, mine was the bed room :)

Here we go down memory lane...

I think this is my 3rd cubicle... this is when Adobe was by the front doors (before the North Building).

Image
Cube #4 on the "Dark Side" (which is exactly what we called the other side of the building... but only because you worked for M$)

Image
Encap's fist of RRRAAAAAAGGGGGEEEEE!!!

Encap needs to cut his meds

Cube #127 (we moved a lot). I was oh so friggin lucky to manage a bunch of halfwits in the OCS Consumer group.

Wow. Just looking at the pics is enough to make me ask if you're ready to go smoke. And I don't even smoke anymore.
