Hi! I post much today!

One of my co-workers got a mini cooper, which he was showing off this morning. I'm not a car person, and I *still* thought it was horribly, horribly cute. In a vaguely matchbox car kind of way. I'm so amused. Beware, it's the Cute Car!

Just got a bunch of stickers which say 'powered by RedHat'. My comment to my boss, who handed them to me, was that we need buttons or pins with that written on it. We're all working here, so we're certainly powered by RedHat, right? I can't decide if his reaction was one of amusement, or of bemusement. Well, either way, *I* continue to be amused by the idea!

Meep. I'm thoroughly useless at work today. And even though the hurricane is not here, it's in my head, because our main office closed at 1pm EST today.

(Meep! I am toon! Hear me 'meep'! I really wish toon physics worked...)

If you really are "powered by RedHat", what's going to happen when you need a kernel upgrade?

Apologies for my lameness on email. It's compounded by having to use the web-interface to send anything (growf!).

Hey, at least yer powered :-) I'm running on orange juice - definitely not the same as RedHat!

Oooh ... Mini Cooper! That's my current "wanna have it" car. I actually have a little bitty toy Mini on my desk. And if you pull it back and let it go, it goes "zoom." :-)

There's a scene in the recent remake of "The Italian Job" where the blue Mini gets gouged all along one side by the tail rotor of a helicopter. After watching that, [livejournal.com profile] randibeeman said, "That's a horrible thing to happen to my second-favorite character in the movie!" When I asked the obvious question, that of her first favorite: "The red one, of course."
