Mark has
been at his job for less than a week, and not only is the expert on the
project he's been thrown on, but he's being shipped out to Texas on a
business trip tomarrow.
So tonight JeffK and I took him out to dinner to wish him well on the
trip. We went to the Road House Grill. It's a steak house where they have
buckets of peanuts on the table and you can toss the shells on the floor.
The food is good and the atmosphere tolerable (in that while they do play
country music, it's not loud enough to be truely annoying).
Afterwards I showed Mark the pictures from his birthday party and then we rented Frequency, a
time travel story without the travel.
After the movie, JeffK and I kicked ourselves out to allow Mark time to
pack, even if it was after midnight.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
