The secret is to have an open mind. Alas I am struggling to have open eyes.
Night all. Blueslider, I look forward to reading your discourse on the Sumatran rain forest in the morning (my time)

Witty Moniker Posted Aug 4, 2000
Good for you! What kind of job?
Aroma Cafe: M Included This Time :-)
Bluebottle Posted Aug 4, 2000
Erm.. that's the problem - I don't really know. I think they've got several vacancies open, and they'll see what I'm best suited for. The details were sketchy as everyone who knew the details was out for lunch.

Cheezdanish, Slacker Princess Posted Aug 4, 2000
A little... TOO quiet...
*squints eyes shiftily, to the music that is most commonly associated with a spagetti western*

You mean the empty whistling of air across a dusty street?
Hmm... we can re-create that sound with my kettle: v/_\3.
Tea anyone?

Cheezdanish, Slacker Princess Posted Aug 4, 2000
No no no, the really bad harmonica music. You know... Bwah ah whah ah wah, wha wha whom...
Yes, tea sounds luvly... and a blueberry scone...

Bluebottle Posted Aug 4, 2000
*Pours the tea, and hands over a scone.*
Ah yes, the harmonica music. At least it isn't a copy of every other soundtrack - lots of heavy metal bunged in for no apparent reason

Hallo everybody, my laptop is back with a completely new keyboard. In fact, if Terry, the techfellow, had been there when I dropped the thing off, he says he would have done it while I waited.
So. I haven't even been over to help clean up after the party, assuming it's over -- thought I'd check in here first. I hope everyone's been looked after OK while I was distracted and then offline.
Ook? You there?
Ook: Ook!
Want some lychees? I brought real ones, here.

Hi Barney, haven't seen you in a while! Just got my keyboard fixed yesterday and the tunnel carpal syndrome is receding already!

Doesn't the Kid have his own computer?

Mazroj the Mage! I remember you from the Celery-Webjello banquet. You know who you are at the moment, which is a great help to finding out where you are.
This is the Aroma Cafe. Non-alcoholic only, but we do great teas and coffees here. That blue orangutan is Ook.
