But nobody is taking the time to look at this from Sauron's point of view. He's just misunderstood. Clearly, Gondor has invited this attack by their arrogance.
If they fight, aren't they only going to force Sauron to make more orcs?
Mordor was such a happy place before the war started... it was a happy place. They had flowery meadows, and rainbow skies, and there were rivers of chocolate where the children frolicked and played...
Little orc children, playing with kites.
Then Gordor got all empire-like and started opening all those Starbucks and McDonalds.
Grrrr... I've got a user issue tonight that just may push me over the edge.
Somebody correct me on this: It isn't *completely* against the law to shoot users, is it? I mean, there's some wiggle room for extenuating circumstances, right?
Isn't there like a six-email-nag rule where it becomes OK to just kill the user in order to resolve the problem and close the ticket?
I'm on solid legal ground here, right? :-)
Heh.... I don't know if there's a tech support "he needed killin" defense....
Someone needs to invent a "delete user" button for techie keyboards.
Of course, shootin' might be more fun.
If you're in the South, there is! ;o)
I guess it helps me that I hate buses! ;)
It will get better, I promise. Something that always encourages me, too, is tracking just how many calories are burned by biking. Biking at just a moderate pace will burn 10 calories per minute. I love that! :o
Bike shorts are helpful, especially once you start increasing the mileage. And if you don't like the spandex (took me years to be willing to wear those spandex shorts in public!) you can buy mountain biking shorts that look like normal shorts. Or you can just wear regular shorts over the top of the spandex ones, that's what I used to do.
It's really fun to see the hobbit-biker group emerging!
Well, thanks!
I take the bus when school is in session - it's that or park and walk a mile, which doesn't make much sense. It's not too horrible, especially if I bring a book. Biking is more fun when it's not hard work.
I like it, but it's tricky at the moment. Still I know I can get better at this.
Trust me, every dollar that is donated helps, a lot.
Sauron's Angels?
Ack! :o
I will probably join halfway through. I have a rehearsal that I'm going to try to wrap up by 6 pm so I can join you all at 6:30 (9:30 eastern). Sorry I'll have to miss the first part, but hopefully I'll be there for the big finish(es)
I had a fantabulous reply with the whole story of this frabjous user all composed up and everything... when my wifi went all fubar. Lost it.
Arrrgh.
Frickin' IT guys. Hate 'em. :-)
You ought to be able to catch half the endings ;~D
Oh... I've got a "delete user" button alright... thanks to Active Directory.
But what I really want is a button for "make this users' existence a living hell". Got that?
Welcome to my life. :-)
Nothing I *do* is real.
Sooo... there I was at 30,000 feet when... all of a sudden...
