Remind us again how many Imperial Shuttles you left on the shelf to go and withdraw money and when you went back were gone

Again... that was an anecdote. Not based on a true story.

#DrainTheSwamp

I voted for Clinton, but I'm not losing any sleep over this. If he can drain the gd swamp, great. Hopefully dollars for the "Wall" will end up actually flowing to useful infrastructure projects, but oh well.

[AirborneAFOL]

Clinton folks who think this is the end of the world, and trump folks thinking this is the greatest thing ever.

Deep breath, everyone. The only certainty is things wont be as bad as feared or as good as hoped.

Politics is limited to this thread : ( and for a short period only )

Ignore. I see we're being directed to a new thread to laugh at discuss the election.

Tough day at work?

[Phil B]

Grrrrrr......

Spent an hour on the phone with 5 (five!) different Dell support teams just now. My laptop dropped in a parking lot 10 days ago and the fall caused one of my USB ports to break. Simple matter of ordering a replacement circuit board for the 2 USB ports and the audio jack, and a helpful lady at Dell Support ordered a refurbished part for me on Nov 2nd, expected delivery Nov 8.

So it's Nov 11 and the item still hasn't shipped. Called Order Status Support, they tell me the part is out of stock (nobody told me this when I ordered) and there is no "in stock by" date in their system, so it could be a while. But if I talk to Sales, they might give me an alternate part I can order. Sure, off to Sales. Nope, no alternate part, but maybe Technical Support can help. Technical Support was clueless - no alternate part, no info on my account (by now I have memorized my order ID, my customer ID, my purchase ID and my Express Service Tag code, because each department wants something else). I'm starting to get ticked off (you can see what a calm person I am to have survived 3 calls). But since my computer is out of warranty (ironically, the warranty ended 10 days before the laptop fell), I can call the Out-of-Warranty department; he cannot forward me because I have already been forwarded multiple times and the system is not allowing another forward.

So I call that department and demand they find a solution, because they're being ridiculous. Without telling me, the agent forwards me to a fifth department, which deals in resolutions, only to hear the same story. Part is OoS, no restock date.

By now I have found the same part on EBay for ~ 1/2 the price they quoted me. He offers to cancel the order, I accept.

And I learned that "Kevin" is a common Indian name.

That only confirmed that HF prefers much younger women.  IIRC, his current wife is considerably younger than him too

Yep.  Harrison is 73, and he's married to Calista Flockhart, who is 51.  They've been married since 2010.

People keep coming up to me as if this is big news and I'm like, "you're shocked CF and HF got together on set?  Please."  I thought we all assumed that anyway.
