Robins freaking out.

I could hear them through
the plate glass of Suite111
at the Lexington Corporate Center.
About 5 minutes later a
Red Tail hawk makes
a double pass through the
court yard. Looked like
he went away empty clawed.

Only on WGBH

Would you hear a host
describe a piece of music
that had just been played
as
"The musicians had the audience
eating out of their hands
with that toe tapper
from the 16th century"

Unusual sightings on or around Springs Road

1) I have seen twice now an old man walking backwards (butt forward) up the road.

2) A teenager has something hidden behind stone wall across the street. I have seen him twice stand stone still until there are no cars and then he leaps into the woods. Once I saw him place a clear container of a medium brown liquid behind the wall.

3) There is a guy across the street from me who has covered, I mean hundreds, of bumper stickers on his white Taurus. I can not read them because he parks way up in his driveway. Last night when leaving Stop and Shop at around 8:30pm, way out in the empty parking lot, the car was parked and he was seated on the cement applying another bumper sticker.

Fire Alarm Testing

Here at the Lexington Corporate Center
is anything
really burnt
during the test?

Christmas

The supply closet at work
is a wonderland of
practical gifts.
Paper,
Pencils,
Pens,
Post it Notes,
and one big
honking printer/copier
for those who have been
very good this year.

Stand back, I am a professional.

His deft DBA knowledge
brought out
a girlish laugh
when answering
her question
about sql server.

Sandal shots

The staccato snaps
of her sandals
as she walked
down the hall
brought relief
when not entering
my cube.

Fuckin heat shields.

Header.
Manifold.
Up pipe.
Twin scroll turbo.

Robots vs People in space.

R. says:
I can think of one thing people can do in space that robots can't.

M. says:
Was this thing in a james bond movie?

R. says:
That or a James Kirk episode on Start Trek.

M. says:
So robots can't be really bad actors? That's it?

Can you hear me now?

Discussion between two co-workers:

J. said "Your not listening to me."
M. replied "Well then your not listening to me"
J. said "I have told you three times now"

ITEM

I have found that
melding the sliver
of old bar with
the new bar
is very easy with
Dial soap.

WTF

When a woman refers
to herself as
"I don't consider myself a feminist by any means"
what exactly does that mean?
"I'll accept less pay for the same job?"
"I'll accept not being able to vote?"
"I'll let other people tell me how to dress?"
"I'll relinquish control of my body?"
or
"I'll accept people telling me who to demonize?"

Yum Sunday 9/13/2009

Coffee,
Blueberry and Lemon Muffin,
Salt and Vinegar chips (WISE brand),
Roadside wild tart grapes,
that grow like kudzu,
and are served like Communion,
carrots in the rice,
garlic in the beans,
goat cheese and almonds
on the spinach.

Clay I'm not.

For ages,
with a speed slower
than the most gentle snow,
I sank to the bottom
of the tea colored
Acoaxet pond,
to hold the tethers
of lily pads,
whispered to by the rushes,
and
to be gratefully disturbed
by a boy and his dog.

Dog test.

Flat on his back
stomach being scratched
eyes closed in bliss.

Lets do a test.
I'll keep scratching
and you quietly get up
and walk away.

Eyes open and
neck twists to follow
until out of site
and then a quick glance at
me and up he gets
and saunters off to make
sure everything is under
control.

RickWood82 (9:39:46 AM): how ya doin?

richardwood401 (9:58:09 AM): boy, talk about 2 opposing ideas in one sentence!

Bad milk

Make a nice big cup
of coffee in the morning
and when adding the milk
seeing that
it has gone bad.

RickWood82 (2:55:38 PM): what made you think of that?

richardwood401 (2:57:24 PM): I don't know, maybe a neutrino impinged on a synapse which knocked loose an electron that fell in my lap.

Feedback Loop

There has to be a way
to collapse chaos
to a
vector
without having to
introduce a gravitational
field emanating from
a biological mass.

Glad to get to work

Leave home in
morning without a cup
of coffee and make a beeline
for the coffee room.
