Oh darn it, even I am getting in the holiday spirit. There have been lots of harsh and angry words bandied about this holiday season, some of which are arguably contrary to the spirit of the holidays. Hatred with the intensity of a large-ish number of suns seems to be a handy catchphrase for describing some of the emotions being expressed from time to time, such emotions leaving darkness in all of our souls. So, in recognition of this most holy time of year, I would like to come right out and admit that there are some on this board whom I like, and a far greater number about whom I have no strong feelings one way or the other. But I do not affirmatively hate any of the posters here on Lawtalkers.

Except Hank.

You big softie! C'mere and gimme a hug!

If you want to woo me, jazz is not gonna do it. I need a little Crystal Method, maybe Fleetwood Mac. And I am NEVER too drunk to fuck. I don't even know what that means.

By the way, PLF never showed up last night so I have a coworker who is wandering about downtown giving UF to unsuspecting individuals.

I was otherwise engaged. Plus, once I learned that the Pisco Sour is the "new hot drink" at the M&S, I figured I could only go there if I was wearing a diagonally striped shirt and effeminate pants, or whatever the hell people were wearing five years ago.

Well done... Well done indeed (and I'm not even a fan of the song paradies generally).

I'll be tipping a Red Bull and Vodka to you... and everybody else here.
Thanks once again for making this year's toil tolerable.

My best wishes to all of you and your families.

Have the happiest holiday since since Bing Crosby tap danced with Danny Fucking Kaye.

Hey, wait a minute. How did the hearing go? DO NOT tell me you are going to leave us hanging over the long holiday weekend.

I can't even imagine a world in which people don't wear jeans on Friday. I think I've done the business casual thing for about 6 years now. I tend to think that even business casual is a bit much. I'm looking for a career (job even) that does not require business casual. 2 more years practicing law. Max.

My place is suits Monday through Thursday. I don't mind it because I really never been able to get the casual Friday look together. Flat front chinos and a blue button collar shirt with loafers is the one outfit I have been able to cobble together and I keep wearing the same one until the pants smell like dirty diaper, then I buy new pants.

For me there is "bum look" and Paul Stuart suits and really nothing in between.

I have the same issue at home. My wife's IBook suddenly went on the fritz and wouldn't connect to the internet, so I called Apple and they took me through steps to reset our Apple AirPort wireless router. Now my computer won't connect to the net, and no matter what I do, I can't make it work. My ISP provider very candidly suggested I "throw away" my AirPort (says they never work well). It's insanely frsutrating.

The issue, as I'm told, is that my router is not accepting my computer's IP Address. How I cure that I have no idea. I'm just going to throw out the fucking piece of shit router and buy a PC-compatible product. I like Apple's stuff, but save the ITunes (which is wonderfully easy), its all more trouble than its worth. Fuck Apple.

Try talking to Appl again. I had the same thing and the com.apple.airport.plist, the preferences file, went bad. I basically had to delete my old network and create a new one. Took 5 minutes.

2. I've only recently discovered, after years of therapy, that my real problem is I hate me

I won't bother, other than to say ask Sebby how going to a PC makes his life easier.

If I could only have 1 friend, I would pick NotBob. He is a really solid base to my multitude of friends.

Is this limited to this board or the interwebbian chatting blogosphere as a hole?

I am trying to use my laptop at a relative's house. I can establish a connection to the router, over which other machines (like the one I am now on) can use the internet, but my machine's browser cannot retrieve material from the internet. A couple of times, briefly, just after re-establishing the connection with the wireless network, I can retrieve some of a page, but then it stops working. This makes me think that the problem is a setting on my laptop. I'm using XP. My Windows and McAfee firewalls are turned off. I'm running out of other ideas. My sanity over the next few days probably depends on the combination of internet access and alcohol. Help me if you can....

I had this problem this summer whilst on vacation in the south of France, and can offer one peace of advice, do not, as a remedial measure, take hold of the laptop screen from the top with both hands and slam it shut as hard as you can. Apparently, that does not fix the problem and actually could cause additional complications.

Word to the wise........also, eitherwhichway, drink heavily, although try to spring for at least something in a screw top-it's the holidaes.

No exposed vagina......

I so want to write "488" in response, but I can't. We are in total agreement.

Did you mean "420"?

Christmas Sex-fecta!!! Woo hoo!!!

That plus the fact that I just billed my 200th hour of the month (and 2537th hour of the year) compels me to go and make a draw on my bonii and buy some Christmas PIE for dessert tonite.

Peace!
