@WildlyP Our union is a bit useless on that front in many respects in reply to WildlyP #
@WildlyP So, your union reps aren't the management structure? (Having the head of school as the local union rep != automatic epic justice) in reply to WildlyP #
@WildlyP Yeah. Two different places where my boss was also my local union rep. Makes enterprise bargaining far far too interesting. in reply to WildlyP #

@mpesce I'd say more believe in Gravity since it's pitched as a law. If there was a Law of Evolution, I'd say more people would go for it. in reply to mpesce #

Abandoning the stratofortress to search for food. Twitter analysis piece is headed towards about 75% done. #
@gumbuoy Media can sell copy based on fat fear, and higher rates for adverts selling fat cures on the same page/show. Medical sales for you in reply to gumbuoy #
@kehealey I'm with you. Competitive cheerleading has the most amazing sets of rules, routines and massive complexity for the scoring system. in reply to kehealey #
I think I might be generating a technology denial field around me. Lots of tech stuff is breaking down near me. #
@JonoH Got to admit, my first thought was Mull of Kintyre (http://is.gd/3iAIz) as a DLC for Beatles:Rockband in reply to JonoH #
@lordriffington Take someone else's laptop there! Take not your own, since it seems to be doing okay. (BTW, bringing the EEE on Friday?) in reply to lordriffington #
@lordriffington Cool. I'll be slightly to heavily rigged for tech running :) in reply to lordriffington #

*heads back to GenCon to recommence the battle* To the Steampunk LARP! #
Okay. L4D is a bust. 4 players total for a 4 x 4 team event #
Gencon day 1&2 were awesome. I appear to be quite good at the LARP genre. Day 3 larp is a "political drama"-i don't fancy a worklife larp :) #
*spends the sunday afternoon recovering from an overquota of people* #
