Good question. 2goggs, you know?

Something about a parent suing because her kid didn't get enough playing time.

How long were you there?

Yeah, knew it was the same instrument, just curious about your style. That's cool. I like both anyway.

About a week, i think. i had two friends working at the lab; one lived in Los Alamos, and the other lived in Santa Fe, so i spent time in both, and a lot of time seeing the state.

i loved the Georgia O'Keeffe museum.

i only started bluegrassing a couple of years ago when i started playing at church. A guy there had wanted to start a bluegrass group for a long time, but he was waiting for a fiddle player.

If you all hear a story on the news about workplace violence in South Carolina... It was me.

I've got these two girls who sit near me who are each planning their weddings. I am not sure how much more of it I can take.

Easy.

Sit down over by them and start asking questions. Compare and contrast your wedding. Suggest they're doing it ALL WRONG. "Yellow? For a wedding color? What? All your bridesmaids will look like freakin' Peeps."

It'll be hilarious.

I love Peeps. Marshmallowee goodness. Combine that with bridesmaids and I think we have a winning combination. Or at least a very fun one.

How you doin today?

It's Friday, so it's not as bad as it could be. How're you?

Not bad.

Interesting morning so far. Dealt with an upset client. He asked for the wrong thing and we didn't do a good job of finding out exactly what it was that he needed. Oh well, learning experience.

Glad it is Friday. Can't wait for next weekend. The missus and I finally figured out a vacation. Going to Santa Fe for 4 days to relax. First vacation we have taken since June of '06! Just realized that this week. Not smart.

BTW, thought I would ask. Do you fiddle or play the violin, because they are different, right?

i loved New Mexico when i was there. i do a little bit of both, actually. You can use the exact same instrument for both styles; it's just how you play that changes. i take classical lessons and play at church. One of the groups i play with at church is a bluegrass group.

Cool. Can you play Devil Went Down to Georgia?

i haven't tried, but yes.

WOW. Very impressed.

I'm trying to decide which are worse, the lightbulb salesmen, or the packaging supplies salesmen. They think they're so tricky with their premeditated sales pitches. A packaging guy just called... and asked the secretary for the person in charge of shipping supplies. When they don't know who to give it to, they give it to me. So here's how the convo went:

"Hello, this is Ryan"

"Is this Ryan?

"That's why I answered the phone that way"

"Ryan we're getting our fall catalogs read to ship and I want to verify the information, are you still located at blah blah blah"

"Yes"

"We're sending out our thank you gifts, would you like an AM/FM walkman, or a leather organizer? It's a free gift, our way of saying thank you."

"Organizer"

"Ok great, I'll get that sent out at no charge (then he talks fast and quiet) with a small purchase... blah blah blah. I want to verify the spelling of your last name."

"How do you have it spelled?"

"Actually, I don't have your last name on file"

"Exactly, you're not going to either. Don't bother sending your catalog" CLICK.

That's a nice one! I like your style. I'll have to remember that.

I've got a question, though, slightly unrelated. Why are people so stupid?

Background: I talk to a potential client who needs to send a new product in for probiotic testing (you know, like the good bugs in yogurt). We exchange a few emails, agree on price, blah, blah, blah. She tells me they are coming (September 7th). I thank her for the heads up.

Fast forward to today. I get an email from her saying that she is disappointed in the lack of attention provided her. I ask for the shipping number. She provides it. After some research, we find out that they sent their product, in another company's container, shipped from a generic shipping store, with no identification in the box, nothing to identify it at all that it is hers, that it came from her, anything. I email back this information. She then has the gaul to ask for compensation in the new product she is going to have to make and ship to me?!?!?! Are you kidding me???? Lady, this company has over 4000 clients in the US alone! My facility receives sometimes upwards of 100+ samples, for analysis, a day! Just because you are a dolt and didn't put any identification in the package at all and now I have to compensate you for your idiocy?!?!?! F**K U!

Edit to add she is from Beverly Hills.

Sweet.

It's 10:30 and I'm already bored out of my mind. Wonderful.

I know what you mean. I spent the last hour doing my expense reports.

I have to read a public participation plan proposed by a regional transportation planning organization for compliance with federal planning regulations. Then I've got to look at some transportation improvement program amendments for two MPOs (metropolitan planning organizations) to make sure that they're financially constrained. Joy.

Dude... what? I don't get it.
