We're members of the Petersen Automotive Museum here in LA, and it's been fascinating/disheartening to learn that alternative power sources have ALWAYS been around - literally since day one. It's just that the oil business got entangled, and people made too much money, so . . . well, you know.

I'd love a smaller car. Like a Miata. Again.

I wish my province would get their act in gear and let the Zenn car on the road. Sadly/ironically its easier to buy this Quebec built vehicle in the US then it is in Canada.

Alrighty, Peeps, heading to the airport. I'll see some of you tomorrow. The rest of you, have a great weekend!

And don't believe anything that you hear on Monday. Lies! All lies!!!

Shamey have fun and remember in every lie there is some truth.

Oy vey, what an afternoon. I had to "remove" one of my interns from a project. It just wasn't getting done to anyone's liking, including my own. Very. Tense. Now.

Is he straight and does he need consoling?

[D2]

Posted: 7/18/08 at 5:28pm

No. And no.

[shira467]

Posted: 7/18/08 at 5:29pm

I had to check.

Sorry about workplace tension!

Don't worry, Deet...we'll help you release the tension tomorrow! *winks with one eye*

D2 - have him go clean the gum off the sidewalk.

I really, really, really hate to replace someone on a project, but this kid just didn't get it. My other two interns are brilliant and do excellent work, but this one just seems to be from another planet. Oh well - his tenure is up next week anyway, so I decided to pull him off one of his projects and just let him finish the one that he's doing relatively well.

You're a smart and patient man, D2.

Not to boast, but the poster I designed (in one hour) blew everyone away this afternoon. Luckily the intern in question had left for the day. (He works from home on Friday because of lack of available space here.)

You're smart, patient, and TALENTED!!!

[D2]

Posted: 7/18/08 at 5:44pm

yeah, yeah, yeah.

Now I'm turning the project over to one of the other interns to handle all the details.

I LOVE this part of the job.

[shira467]

Posted: 7/18/08 at 5:45pm

Details can be annoying.

And don't "yeah yeah yeah" me. It's true!

[D2]

Posted: 7/18/08 at 5:46pm

yeah, yeah, yeah.

[shira467]

Posted: 7/18/08 at 5:46pm

Excuse me? That's very rude of you!

Are you sure you're using that word correctly, Shira?

I'm not very angry, or feel like I've been done a wrong. I don't even feel filled with indignation.

I want a scooter.

No. I never claimed to be good at English. Fine, you're just being a pain in the ass. Better?
