oh, yuck.

Paying the bills is never actually pleasant, but this is a new twist...

(1) You know how the phone company always used to have those nice mint-flavored envelopes?
(2) You know how department stores always stick in those silly adverts in with your bill, including overpowering perfume samples?

Ptui. I just had to lick a perfume-flavored envelope, and I suspect no amount of diet Coke is going to kill the taste.

things that make you go *snork*

From a Beeb story Enron's Lay and Skilling guilty:

'A spokesman for President George W Bush said the verdict should be seen as a warning to other corporate criminals.

"The administration has been pretty clear there is no tolerance for corporate corruption," said White House spokesman Tony Snow. '

Yeah. Some jobs *are* best left for the government to do...

Elsewhere on the Beeb: Plan for cloaking device unveiled. Where? I don't see it...!

Dumb-ass Baycon question

How does one get to the hotel from the airport? Does the hotel run a shuttle? Do we walk? Do we pay $2 to ride in a cab for half a mile?

Inquiring minds... our flight is meant to land at 8:55 PM, so it'll probably be dark by the time we get outside. That might make walking slightly TOO interesting.

Who's been there before that can give us a clue?

Thanks!!

Baycon

Okay, who's going to be at Baycon and wants to give me their cell phone number?

All comments will be screened. You can also email me, username at livejournal works. But I can't check that one from work, and we may leave the house in a tearing hurry tomorrow evening. (-:
