Just met with the Dean to talk about my Promotion to Associate Professor, and he was enthusiastically supportive of it. So smack me all ya want... It's a beautiful day, the birds are coming back, and the crocuses and hyacinths are out :D

This would be about the right time for a news story about a university dean to be caught up in a prostitution scandal or something.

Where is the goldfish? It said offline.

Tragedy in the tank. The tank turned violently green and cloudy over the weekend. Several fish didn't survive. Don't know why. So I'm working hard to keep the two still in there alive and straighten out the tank. Hopefully when I get everything back to normal, I'll turn it back on.

Since we're both dudes, that'd be a bit... icky.

I mean here's a guy supporting your promotion, it'd be a shame if he had to be replaced before he signed off on it.

Sigh. If it has to be explained, it ain't funny.

Sabotage?

I assumed another funny story...

No... I've been having problems with filtered water and algae for weeks. But all of a sudden it got toxic I guess. I turned the webcam on their temporary home if you want to check them out...

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

algal bloom?

AZGman wrote:algal bloom?

Apparently. Not on the sides, just the water. Probably came from the filtered water supply that had a bad filter. It is proving darn near impossible to remove.

So... did you get the pigeon shirt?

Naah. I could make better. A gray pigeon design on a heather shirt probably would not look good. If it were on a royal blue or other dark colored shirt, I'd have bought one.

Impressive show of will power...

Although usually I'm a sucker for anything with a pigeon on it, since it's my chosen animal for research, I really don't like the design. Wonder if I bought it and acid-treated the heather if it would get darker. I think I heard someone say that on a shirt board.

It's on Page 1 of that thread, Ms. Name.

Hi guys, haven't had any time to back read. Wanted to let you all know me and the girls are home. Had a real good time with my family, baby wouldn't sleep nor let anyone hold her, so I am pretty out of it, but still managed to drive us all home safe. Grandma and Grampa spoiled the girls, even though the baby would only let them touch her if she was in my arms.

Good afternoon everyone!

Just on the chance that Ms. Name will read any thread in its entirety so long as it's linked.

Evenin', folks

I'm very sorry to hear that, Ms. Name, my condolences.
