Considering they are glorified typewriters in the age of flatscreen pads, yeah, I'd call them retro.
I mean, they date back to the 80's for pity's sake. That's *ancient* by today's tech.
What's new, Cantina?
It's been a good-news day.
I hope it's kicking off a good-news week. *fingers crossed*

Cobra, I gotta say, that on some levels, your new avi is absolutely terrifying.
What kind of good news?
Or can it not yet be shared?
There's so much WTF in this story that I can't even respond properly.
Damn, Hillz, how am I going to top that? Geeze.
No specifics, but I'll say I got a very cool phone call from NYC today.

It was quite fine.
I'm going to regret having the specialty chocolate shop near me, methinks.

Me: *sitting at desk, working*
Boss: You're a bad influence here.
Me: *looks up, considers responding, quashes instinct to unleash hell* Oh. *continues working*

Boss: You said that we shouldn't work on Friday.

Boss: Oh, yeah? Well, we can totally do [insert industry-specific action #1].
Me: No. That requires system access.
Boss: Well, then [insert industry-specific action #2-7 and 7b].
Me: All require system access.
Boss: Then we can take all the files out of file cabinet A, put them in boxes, take all the files out file cabinet B, put those in file cabinet A, then put the boxed files in file cabinet B. What do you think about that?
