pearl - perl - curmudgeon - think - Han Solo - birthday - truck driver - veggie dip

[12:20:22 PM] pD says: who is pearl?

[12:20:35 PM] AE says: programming language.

[12:20:58 PM] pD says: did not know that a programming language comes with a little girl's voice these days

[12:21:03 PM] pD says: kind of disturbing

[12:21:06 PM] AE says: weird. isn't it.

[12:21:06 PM] nsy says: things in tea?

[12:21:16 PM] AE says: also in oysters.

[12:21:30 PM] AE says: oyster tea programming language.

[12:21:32 PM] pD says: wait! that is perl

[12:21:38 PM] AE says: oh... you're correct.

[12:21:47 PM] AE says: it's a skit with Will Ferrel.

[12:21:54 PM] pD says: oyster tea... kind of crunchy?

[12:22:09 PM] AE says: personally, it's a little too juvenile for me.

[12:22:16 PM] AE says: but some people seem to really like it.

[12:22:41 PM] pD says: sorry, i am lost. what are we referring to now?

[12:23:00 PM] AE says: they're watching a skit with Will Ferrel and Pearl.

[12:23:11 PM] AE says: Pearl is... Will's daughter?

[12:23:18 PM] pD says: if you say so

[12:23:19 PM] AE says: Friends daughter?

[12:23:26 PM] AE says: something like that.

[12:23:43 PM] pD says: btw, who will man the store when everyone is in the off-site?

[12:23:48 PM] pD says: just wondering

[12:24:08 PM] AE says: http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/74

[12:24:22 PM] AE says: us support folks will still have our phones going.

[12:24:38 PM] pD says: calling each other to get out of meetings

[12:24:43 PM] pD says: that is a good idea

[12:24:57 PM] AE says: heh. hadn't thought of that!

[12:25:08 PM] AE says: I'm actually looking forward to meeting everyone.

[12:26:59 PM] pD is a curmudgeon

[12:27:09 PM] pD says: so, i have seen the video with will and pearl

[12:27:30 PM] pD says: it is amusing, but what is the big fuzz about?

[12:27:40 PM] pD says: what am i missing?

[12:27:52 PM] AE says: i don't know. nothing as far as I know.

[12:28:02 PM] AE says: M was sharing it with S.

[12:28:16 PM] AE says: that brought it to the current reality.

[12:29:30 PM] pD says: the following is for google bot's

[12:29:34 PM] pD says: nsa chatters

[12:29:41 PM] pD says: end message

[12:29:55 PM] AE says: you have to be more creative about working the phrase nsa chatters into conversation.

[12:30:01 PM] AE says: it's a little abrupt!

[12:30:07 PM] nsy says: what is nsa chatters?

[12:30:21 PM] AE says: blah blah blah... btw NSA CHATTERS... it's a bit jaring really.

[12:30:39 PM] pD says: well, think of it as a comercial break

[12:30:54 PM] pD says: i suppose we can come up with a tag line

[12:30:59 PM] pD says: but, that requires thinking

[12:31:04 PM] pD says: thinking is hard

[12:31:11 PM] AE says: oh.. well forget that then.

[12:31:29 PM] AE says: we get paid to think... and as far as i know no one's paid us anything for this!

[12:31:45 PM] pD says: my point precisely

[12:31:53 PM] pD says: thinking is for wimps

[12:32:08 PM] pD says: young men - just type away

[12:32:23 PM] AE says: I totally agree!

[12:32:25 PM] pD says: btw, we went up to SF on Saturday

[12:32:48 PM] AE says: I'm a big fan of the Han Solo school of "irrational action before thought"!

[12:32:58 PM] AE says: how was SF?

[12:33:19 PM] pD says: we figured that it would be "eaiser" to take the family to a place that we know fairly well

[12:33:40 PM] pD says: my whole family is coming to visit to celebrate the little boss' one year birthday

[12:34:02 PM] AE says: when is that?

[12:34:09 PM] pD says: did han solo actually said that - "irrational action before thought"? i do nto recall

[12:37:08 PM] AE says: no. he did not need to say it: he simply did it!

[12:40:27 PM] pD says: actually, i thought he was quite cynical - recall that he did not want to get involved with the rescue until the reward was mentioined

[12:40:56 PM] pD says: it is true that he charged the storm troopers solo in the rescue, but that is not irrational as such - it worked to some extent

[12:43:30 PM] AE says: but it was not thought out

[1:23:47 PM] pD says: love how nsy puts S in his place...

[1:23:57 PM] pD says: nsy rocks!

[1:24:09 PM] pD is looking for his pirate pom-poms

[1:29:59 PM] pD says: btw, the his laptop fixed?

[1:30:47 PM] nsy says: not that i know of

[1:45:11 PM] pD says: i was going to find a han solo clip on youtube

[1:45:14 PM] pD says: not seeing anything

[1:45:28 PM] pD says: i wonder if george lucas has been culling those as well, that would be fitting of his style

[1:45:34 PM] pD says: Lucas the litigator

[1:46:56 PM] pD says: http://www.film.com/movies/story/georgelucaswantsyou/14895159

[1:49:46 PM] pD says: i have always wondered what it would be like to be a truck driver

[1:49:57 PM] pD says: could be an enjoyabel life

[1:50:10 PM] pD says: anotehr alternative was to be a postal delivery guy in the rural area

[1:50:21 PM] pD says: but, i don't like dealing with dogs

[4:51:19 PM] pD says: that was not too painful

[4:54:36 PM] AE says: and we got free food.

[4:55:08 PM] pD says: not to take anything aways from fruits since i am a personal fan

[4:55:13 PM] pD says: but, that ain't no food

[4:55:23 PM] AE says: i was thinking of the veggies and dip.

[4:55:36 PM] AE says: if you just drink the dip straight... it's quite filling.

[4:55:44 PM] pD says: ah! i did not have those. so, in the pD-centric wrold, that does not count

[4:56:01 PM] pD says: i would pay to see you drink the dip straight

[4:56:14 PM] AE says: how much?

[4:56:23 PM] pD says: how much would you drink?

[4:56:29 PM] AE says: (we've now established what kind of person I am)

[4:56:41 PM] AE says: depends on if the money would cover the hospital bills.

[4:56:54 PM] AE says: then amount is not in question.

[4:57:19 PM] pD says: probably not enough - but you should do it for pride, country, family, and the knowledge of how much dip you can consume

[4:57:46 PM] pD says: i say that in and of itself, as a self-discovery journey, is well worth the efforts

[4:57:57 PM] pD is once again looking for his pirate pompoms
