Somewhere Over Omaha
Growing older but not up

As it turned out, I was able to catch a flight yesterday morning to return to St. Louis. I have Monday off as my holiday, and I will stay here Tuesday for La Shelberina's birthday before returning to Omaha. So life is good.

Found this while cleaning up some stuff from the Redhead's office:

Caffeine is my shepherd; I shall not doze.
It maketh me to wake in the lecture hall, it leadeth me beyond the sleeping masses.
It restoreth my buzz.
It leadeth me in the paths of consciousness for it's name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of addiction,
I will fear no decaf.
For thou art with me; thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me.
Thou preparest a tall latte before me in the presence of fatigue.
Thou anointest my day with pep; my mug runneth over.
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life;
and I will dwell in the House of Java forever.

I'm sorry. I realize that it's a serious subject but I can't stop laughing.

Poll #913923 Let's have some fun
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 27

You're in the checkout line. Your purchase comes to $3.06. You have a five and six cents in change.

View Answers

Give 'em the six cents and get two bucks back. To not use exact change means the terrorists have won.
25 (96.2%)

Let them make change! Get back $1.94 and jingle about like the High Plains Drifter!
1 (3.8%)

Screw this. I use my debit card.
2 (7.7%)

I'm old and like to delay people. I'll write a check and rummage around for identification.

Let's say you have a five and a quarter.

View Answers

Use the quarter and get back $2.19. Far less change to have to manage.
14 (51.9%)

They're paid to make change! Give me my $1.94!
10 (37.0%)

That's why God created debit cards, you Luddite.
3 (11.1%)

I'm old and like to delay people. I'll write a check and rummage around for identification.

You have a five and...a nickel. Oh noes!

View Answers

Where's the "give a penny/take a penny" container?
12 (44.4%)

Change, damn you, change! $1.94!
13 (48.1%)

See, you wouldn't have these problems if you just used a debit card.

I'm old and like to delay people. I'll write a check and rummage around for identification.

WONDERED why all the LJ profile icons were wearing eyepatches...

There was a discussion on [info]rollick's LJ about a prospective third Star Wars trilogy, and in the course of conversation someone suggested a musical. And of course that got the creative juices flowing in my brain, resulting in this:

If you're blue
And you don't know which side to go to
Why don't you go where darkness sits
Puttin' on the Sith

Come let's mix
Where all the Dark Lords
Rule their armies
With lightsabers in their mitts
Puttin on the Sith

Have you seen the Count Dooku
Wiping out Planet Naboo
Hanging Gungan out to dry
Making Jar-Jar scream and die

Big ships and arcane powers
Clone troops and acid showers
Committing every crime
For their man Palpatine

So if you're blue
And you don't know which side to go to
Why don't you go where darkness sits
Puttin on the Sith

Thanks to [info]cassielander for the lyric assist
