At the very least a field trip, Moony!

And maybe an expert friend of mine might be able to take some time to meet us there and explain it all? Perhaps on a Monday evening in the not too distant future?





With alcohol after?

Count me in for that field trip!

Day just got turned on it's head. I had to cancel dinner plans I was looking forward to, to cover for a colleague who was supposed to take the lead but didn't. But, hey, I don't have a life, so they have no problem just saying I'll do it.

Did someone mention alcohol?

Tink, it all sounds fascinating!

Morning Adults!

Tink, sounds really cool, but also like one step removed from HAL.

If you use a large obelisk in any of the advertising, I may start running.

:) booze will get me pretty much anywhere! hehe

I'd say in another 1-3 years the only working people you see in stores will be at a customer service desk and pretty much everything else will be automated. It's scary but the more and more we become obsessed with iPads and such, the closer we bring the impending robot invasion.

And how long before those stores are all virtual?

well then we will no longer have many physical store locations because we put most people out of work and they then can't afford to go shopping. And everyone who can afford it can just shop on-line and pretty much the retail industry becomes order fulfillment.

it happens every day now - you go into a store and see something, whip out the smart phone see where you can get it cheaper and order it right there on the spot from a competitor while still standing in the store.

Which, as I've become obsessed with The Music Man has shown, is the way it used to be in rural America. The shopping at the store mentality didn't begin until the advent of the automobile; before that people ordered items via catalogue and then anxiously waited for the Wells Fargo Wagon.

And yes, I am the director that manages to find the political and cultural statement in The Music Man.

Well, the boys flight took off on time.

I've said it once, I'll say it again. I so prefer driving to JFK airport over Newark. Hate that place.

Happy Friday to all.

I saw a boy I met on Sunday again last night, and tonight have a date with a different boy. It's been a very long time since I have juggled but it is proving quite entertaining.

G'morning.

"Sandra Bernhard Likes My Dog."

How does that sound for a play title?

[MotorTink]

Posted: 9/21/12 at 8:10am

i think a "Sandra XXX Likes My Dog" would be better, but she has still yet to meet the pup. just sayin' :)

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 9/21/12 at 8:12am

Love it, Deet. Almost as much as I love the story behind the title!

'Morning. They do have the internet over threre in Jolly Ol' England, right? We want updates!

I have Earth, Wind & Fire playing through my head now. Not a bad selection!

"They do have the internet over threre in Jolly Ol' England, right? We want updates."

I don't think so. When is the last time that Shame's posted?

Posted: 9/21/12 at 8:25am

Girly will know.

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 9/21/12 at 8:32am

Both of you are right!

Wasn't it one day last week when she popped in to ask what the boys were drinking these days?

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 9/21/12 at 11:06am

Yup! I love those drive-by postings. I miss her.

I just checked and their flight to the girls is running a little late, but they should be taking off shortly.

"When HC Met Shamey"

Posted: 9/21/12 at 1:04pm

In person meetings are so much better than talking on the computer, even with technological advances.

If they haven't met yet, it should only be a matter of minutes now.

Just got to see the Space Shuttle do a loop around downtown. How cool is that!
