Subject: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Let's get some information about what you guys are supposed to be doing during the day while you're reading our site. Kat? Raka? Snake #9? Foodus? What do you guys do for a living? | |
| Judge Dredd 6/20/2001 08:31:01 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I am the law, and I don't suffer fools gladly. Hey, you didn't ask about my job. Can I still tell you? It involves the future. And I am NOT sylvester stallone. | |
| Raka 6/20/2001 08:40:52 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I run a database for Pillsbury. Do not let his giggly demeanor deceive you, for the Doughboy is a harsh taskmaster. | |
| Chefelf 6/20/2001 08:50:07 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: It must be horror working for a company as well known as Pillsbury. I'm sure people are forever poking you in the belly trying to get you to giggle. It must have been horrible when Chris Livingston worked for Noodle Doodle as well. What sort of junk do you keep in the database? Recipes? Cookies? Money stuff? | |
| No reason, just interested 6/20/2001 08:58:38 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: And does it have a password? And if I have the password, can I get all the cookies I want? | |
| Cretin 6/20/2001 09:19:56 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I bet you earn a lot of dough. | |
| Lefty 6/20/2001 11:01:47 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I computer-program GUI stuff @ a hospital | |
| Cretin 6/20/2001 11:12:15 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I guess Lefty is a computer gui. Huh, huh, huh! | |
| Voice of Raisin 6/20/2001 11:13:19 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Someone muzzle that guy! | |
| Yahtzee 6/20/2001 11:54:01 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I am currently unemployed, sponging off my parents and my savings, but I'm hoping I'll get 'discovered' any day now. | |
| mrs tingle 6/20/2001 12:18:05 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: yes, and you are in my chemistry class, yahtzee, don't forget that! | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 12:39:48 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: hmm. If I said I did something big and important, like ran Dimension Films, would you like me more? Cause I run a big film company. I won't tell you which though. | |
| Raka 6/20/2001 12:48:59 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: When poked in the belly, I do giggle. and giggle. letting it build into a hysterical cackle just on the edge of screaming, that goes on for an uncomfortably long time, until people visibly want to leave the room, but will not for fear of attracting my attention. Nobody has yet poked me twice. I will not give the password, though it is the name of a cheap beer. Anyone who finds my web page and sends mail to that account can have a mittenful of coupons for free cookies and rolls and whatever else I can scrounge up. Good bloody luck. *gryn* The database mostly holds bizarre intra-corporate info relating to pricing, shipping, volume, and so on. I understand about half of it, despite having built the thing. Two fun bits of information from the raw materials table: 1. Most items have lots of boring detail. Like any given flour will have its identifier code, location used, location of origin, nutrition info, contact info, etc. One of our Grands! Cinnamon rolls, however, contains an item that effectively has: R10xxx Brown Liquid Kentucky That's it. That's all the company knows about this item. It's brown, liquid, and it comes from Kentucky. And it goes in our food. 2. We have two listings for eggs. R13xx1 Eggs R13xx2 Eggs: Salmonella Free Ummm... I'll take #2, please. | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 12:55:39 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: oh, yummy. | |
| Chefelf 6/20/2001 13:28:55 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Is it actually a liquid form of Kentucky? | |
| Raka 6/20/2001 13:40:30 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: By the hundred little gods, I hope not. They're under separate fields, i.e.: Description: Brown Liquid State of Origin: Kentucky and no other fields except for code number are filled in. | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 13:45:23 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Have you ever like, pried it open and tasted it? Maybe it tastes like syrup. I doubt it is syrup, but the taste is there. | |
| Snake #9 6/20/2001 13:52:43 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: It's probably sippin' whisky! | |
| Raka 6/20/2001 15:31:01 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Hmmm... Pillsbury's parent company is Guinness/United Distillers and Vintners, so it's conceivable. Haveta get me somma that moonshine, if so. Tasting ain't an option... they aren't made in Minnesota, which is where I am. | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 15:41:45 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: well, that's all kinds of not fair. | |
| Beguiled Geronimo 6/20/2001 15:48:43 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Is Raka not of legal drinkin' age? | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 16:02:40 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: hmmmm...makes you wonder, doesn't it? Not me though. I don't have to wonder. I know. | |
| Raka 6/20/2001 17:02:43 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Raka is of drinking age, though the youngest person on this floor of 80+ people by at least 6 years. The liquid in question is just made and used very far from where I am. It would be a heck of a field trip just to imbibe an unidentified fluid. From Kentucky. | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 17:17:56 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: I live in Kentucky. | |
| Raka 6/20/2001 18:39:42 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: Seen any conspicuous, unidentified brown liquids lately? | |
| Kat 6/20/2001 18:46:46 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: heck, I'm currently farming conspicuous, unidentified brown liquids. Does that help? | |
| Pete Telegram 6/21/2001 10:12:59 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: On A&E biography, I saw that Peter Sellars was famous for his brown liquid production. He would come to the set of the movie he was working on with cups of the stuff, and no one ever knew where it came from. Raka should run a Find function on his database and see if Peter Sellars is in it anywhere. I don't know what database you're using, but in mysql there's a sellars() function that does exactly that. Unless it's sellers()? I don't know. | |
| Javascript Jimmy 6/21/2001 10:19:22 | RE: What do YOU do for a living? Message: No, that was coffee. | |
