[New York Times] Google Desktop Search: No match for Rice researchers

That actually brings to mind an interesting anectdote. In fact I did leave at a decent hour last night as the overlords were on a plane to Cali and proceeded to get rip roaring blackout drunk with some friends since I had to work all weekend. Of course i immediately passed out on the couch when I got home and came to around 5 AM, and then I noticed that my blackberry was lighting up like a christmas tree and I had a bunch of voicemails and messages on my cellphone from the overlords asking me to get him x, y, and z before 9 EST. Now I usually sleep till 9 and don't make it to work till 10 - but anyway obviously I got on top of it and got it out between 6-830. But for the fact that I was wasted off my ass and up at 5 I wouldn't have ever gotten any of the messages and people would have been pissed.

I thank you for the opportunity to relate this cautionary tale.

 

Seems like Rice alumni all share one attribute. They can't take a joke.

Maybe this new president rimbaud is talking about needs to focus on implementing Sense of Humor 101.

 

Can you imagine the jokes they would tell in that class?

Jesus and his disciples were walking around one day, when Jesus said, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like 3x squared plus 8x minus 9." The disciples looked very puzzled, and finally asked Peter, "What on earth does Jesus mean - the Kingdom of Heaven is like 3x squared plus 8x minus 9? Peter said, "Don't worry. It's just another one of his parabolas.

 

That was an insult post Einstein.

TA DA!

 

I think my CASE is CLOSED!!

 

These last few posts are degrading what was a quality thread with their general lack of wit/humor. Do better, please.

 

7 posts in 15 minutes...been awhile since we had one of these threads!

Keep it up guys!

 

Conquistador your stallion stands
In need of company
And like some angel’s haloed brow
You reek of purity
I see your armour-plated breast
Has long since lost it’s sheen
And in your death mask face
There are no signs which can be seen

And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no maze to unwind
Conquistador a vulture sits
Upon your silver shield
And in your rusty scabbard now
The sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of it’s fill

And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no maze to unwind
Conquistador there is no time
I must pay my respect
And though I came to jeer at you
I leave now with regret
And as the gloom begins to fall
I see there is no, only all
And though you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die

 

Its damn near impossible to do that when someone comes back with oh really.

 

MY STALLION STANDS!


HO HO HO!

 

Oh my. All this talk about bigtexxx's "lady friend" must have gotten you excited!

 

Wow, I go to the gym for a few hours and this thread takes a new turn!

 

"_" and his stallion:



More proof that Rice grads have miniatures....

 

Nice story. I like the expression "overlords" for the partners .

Sorry about the 12 cm, though .

 

Where are B-bobert and the King of Cheetahs?

This thread calls out for the insane rantings of Senor boberto (though it doesn't need his hurtful emotional barbs) and the mad photochopping skilz to pay the bilz of the feline Rex.

 

Looks like we'll have to keep it near the top of the page til they get here!

EDIT: Say something funny Sam.

 

A grown man for whom I work just called me "dummy"

I am being completely serious. That is like the first time that has happened me since 2nd grade.

For the record, I am not a dummy.
