Thursdays #165 - drinks are on me!

[RedHedd]

Gini, what oh-so-helpful toolbar was it that you downloaded and installed? I'm still battling with AT&T blocking e-mails from a friend in Japan. They keep saying it's her ISP

Something for me to celebrate - I got my performance review at work yesterday and it was good, which surprised me as one of the attorneys I work with is a real pain in the (_|_) and is creating a hostile work environment. Management has their eye on her and I was scared to see what she had to say about me, but she gave me a good review. I'll find out about the raise in July. Happy, happy

RedH that's terrific news!! Allow me to fresh squish some lemonade for you and offer you a snack!! Oh Gini, I saw the report on CNN this morning and I'm surprised the helicopter didn't wake you while flying back and forth over your house (the yard looks lovely by the way)

Redhedd, it was the Comcast toolbar. I quickly realized that they verify every single site you enter. And I also quickly realized that they posted nearly everything as NOT VERIFIED AS SAFE. Now that included such mundane things as Dictionary.com - The Breast Cancer site - and of course, Pet Talk. However purging the toolbar didn't solve the problem - so I had to get on the mandatory hour phone call and then email the Blacklist people to get it straightened out. Comcast did admit that they were receiving a lot of complaints about their toolbar. (hello?????)

Since I am venting - my bill from Comcast is in my ex-husbands name. But when I called to change it - they demanded that I go into their offices with my divorce papers. That was nine years ago - I have just been paying the bill every month. I didn't really think that my divorce papers were any of their business.

Oh, but on to Randi - congratulations on the job. Gosh, I hope it is something that you will be happy doing.

MOFF, mmmm, I feel for you ..........no car is no fun! I wish we had a Thursdays trust fund and could just buy you another one.

Redhedd, congrats on the good review. I hope a good raise is in your future.

I am still swaggering around with the Blacklist title - do I have a black dot on my forehead?

More Baileys she demands!!!!

Gini....I am envious..... to be on a blacklist! Do you suppose homeland security has anything to do with it?

[catland]

Wow - Gini blacklisted - I feel like I know a celebrity now. Hmm - Homeland Security - that's an interesting theory - they aren't nearly as cute as the haz-mat guys but I bet we could invite them to Thursdays and maybe get them to spill their secrets.

I'll see how those ribs are doing and we can have lunch here anytime.
