skreidle | O'Reilly, RoboScott, Realpolitik, kilt, and plans

O'Reilly Hit With Sex Harass Suit: Female Fox coworker details lewd behavior of cable TV star. That O'Reilly is one persistent perv--the court document is like a train wreck that just keeps getting worse.

IM between me (evil) and Scott S (good):
Good Scott: your new job is an on-call service job?
Evil Scott: it just happens to be for robotic tape libraries and associated hardware/software/firmware, installs and troubleshooting
Good Scott: so the robots call you for help? :-P
Evil Scott: I HELP THE ROBOTS.
Good Scott: haha, when the revolution comes, you've got a deal with them
Evil Scott: I WILL NOT BE FIRST AGAINST THE WALL
Good Scott: oh yeah, well when its all over you can join the robots on the robot reservation
Evil Scott: or visit you on the hu-man reservation ;-)

From a friend's email sig:
"Realpolitik is a mood of self-congratulatory pugnacity accompanied by complete witlessness about how people work. It is usually associated with paranoia and the empathy of a table-leg. And it isn't spelled well."

-- Fred Reed

I'm wearing a kilt. Of course there'll be pictures. :D

This evening, AITP meeting at Ft. Myer, where I'll get a free tie from Mulberry Neckwear, and possibly win a free shirt from Henry Jacobson. The presentation is in the Evolution of the Modern Day Helpdesk.

Tonight, Alchemy at Nation, where I'll purchase a ticket for the Social D concert on Monday. Tomorrow, I head up to Ithaca for Cornell's Homecoming and Seal and Serpent and APO events. I shall do this by motorcycle, potentially trying out my new rainsuit, definitely trying out the Laminar Lip I installed on my windscreen today, as well as whatever seat padding I get between now and tomorrow morning. :)
