Beefy Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Congrats, I hope the celebration includes a trip to see a certain red haired singer. Or a visit from said red haired singer. ??? In any case, hooray for jobs!
tyrion Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 ^ This. What a way to steal a man's thunder(pants)... **BRENT** Congrats Brent!
Beefy Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 I know that, but its less amusing if you correct me
Fitz Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 I know that, but its less amusing if you correct me But its moar sexy if I do correct you
Dreadhead Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Congrats to both of you. I spend the morning in a 5 hour meeting discussing technical issues. That was great. I miss doing technical work. Well if my wife's interviews with Google keep going well then maybe I'll miss doing work entirely....
aardvark baguette Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Congrats! I am taking off the week, and finally starting to fix up the house a bit. Ripped out about 75% of the dilapidated wood fence in the backyard, leaving behind perfectly fine chain-link fence. Started a war against the bamboo thats annexing the back fence line as well, and a limited skirmish with the bee population, going through 1.5 bottles of bee spray. Pretty sure I will be tapping the services of Roundup tomorrow. There will be blood. Or dead plants at least.
morphsci Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Congratulation on the jobs. Should I predict more participation in the "Post the last thing you bought!" thread?
mypasswordis Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Congrats! But it will be sad not living within driving distance from Colin anymore. For awhile, at least.
grawk Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 ny is within driving distance of maryland, last time I checked
mypasswordis Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 ny is within driving distance of maryland, last time I checked Well I guess it is, but it's still a bit of a drive, enough that I wouldn't really want to drive there and back in the same day unless need be. And I wouldn't really want to stay there overnight unless I could crash at someone's place. I'll pick up the slack
swt61 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 (edited) Well, I have a funny story about this "African Palisander". If you Google it, you'll find that no one sells it, and you'll see that many high end game boards use it. So, I called one of the big importer and chatted them about it, and they said that this wood comes from Congo and is also known as "Palisander du Congo". Anyways, according to the person I talked to, it's the same as Wenge. I sent them a few pics as well and they confirmed. So, that begs the question, what sayeth Dr. Wood about these same pics of "African Palisander"? The gentleman is misinformed. The wood in the pic is Wenge however. Congrats on the job offers gents!

cetoole Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Thanks all, I am extremely excited. Congrats. Do tell. It involves a move to NYC. I'm assuming some sort of celebration is in order? You, sir, are a wise man. ^ This. What a way to steal a man's thunder(pants)... **BRENT** Congrats, Brent! Congrats, I hope the celebration includes a trip to see a certain red haired singer. Or a visit from said red haired singer. 11/19/2010... But its moar sexy if I do correct you A very wise man. Congratulation on the jobs. Should I predict more participation in the "Post the last thing you bought!" thread? It should, by all accounts. Congrats! But it will be sad not living within driving distance from Colin anymore. For awhile, at least. Only about 4.5 hours, or just take the bus. Well I guess it is, but it's still a bit of a drive, enough that I wouldn't really want to drive there and back in the same day unless need be. And I wouldn't really want to stay there overnight unless I could crash at someone's place. Right, because you don't know anyone living or soon to be living in that city.
manaox2 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 Whoa! Missed your thunder Brent, today is one hell of a day. Congrats to both of you!
Nebby Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 ny is within driving distance of maryland, last time I checked It's crazy, but Maryland is within driving distance of California. Amazing eh? Grats Colin and Brent!

blessingx Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 In Vegas at a security/antivirus conference. So far todays highlights include seeing a man swim laps at the MGM Grand pool using a small keg for flotation and three girls, nearly topless, running out of the CSI: The Experience ride.
Voltron Posted April 13, 2010 Report Posted April 13, 2010 Great conference. You security/antivirus folks are wild!
