Notes From My Department Meeting, 6.28.05

Any time Kim, the department head, says we're about to learn something "incredibly interesting," you know she's full of crap.A picture of Kim: Baby Spice's older sister, beaten by time and booze.CFD has questions about the presentation we just saw. She always has questions. Curse her.My boss Jennifer sometimes reminds me of E.T., or actually E.T. with a bad haircut and a cornflower sundress. And a massive underbite. And a lazy eye. Ultimately, it's a pretty disturbing visual.We are given the password to the company's pay-subscription site and told not to sell it because some libraries pay $10,000 for entry into the site. I accept cash or check.Linda, in her 40s, has a tattoo around her ankle of a rose. This pretty much convinces me that from 1987-1991 she was a groupie for Guns N' Roses. She always flinches when I say "Axl."Having Joyce here is like letting a homeless bag lady onto the Senate floor and giving her a mic: too much exposure, too little cognitive function. (Although I guess that applies to more than a few senators.)
