Re: AK... Yeah, that's about the sense I get from it too.

Best quote while setting this up, from my friend Seth: "You can shower at my work, so you don't have to pay for it." Because there's generally not indoor plumbing in the houses there, there are bath houses (not that kind of bath house... or maybe it is, I don't know how they roll there) for the whole town to use.

Fascinating information:

The Frat Boy billed for 62.25 hours of work this summer. For the entire summer. This means that this law firm paid him $109/hour for his legal work.

...

Ha ha Dan's going to an Alaskan bath house.

No, see, I can shower at the Homer Soil and Water Conservation District because my friend works there, and it will be free! Free hot water!

Of course, I'll probably still go, if only for the handjobs.

Atta boy.

I don't understand. Surely he was around more than that, or he wouldn't be bothering people so much.

I will have worked that much this week when it's over.

Law offices bill clients for their time. So for each project we work on, we have to turn in a time ticket that lists the number of hours we workedon, who the client was, and what we were doing. We're in the office and getting paid hourly for roughly 40 hours a week, give or take some time for getting in late, leaving early, or working overtime.

So, while the Frat Boy was in the office 40 hours a week give or take all summer, he only worked 62.25 hours of that.

And 6.5 of those hours were "reading the handbook" and I don't even know what the fuck that means. But it's not billable client stuff.

What is Frat Boy's first name? Is it Josh? He sounds like a Josh.

Mark

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Both the Frat Boy and the Orthodox Jew were named Mark. We collectively referred to them as "The Marks" as in, "It's just me and the Marks tomorrow, so I know I'm going to be busy."

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:39 (seventeen years ago) link

I would have guessed "Cliff." But hearing that it's actually Mark is kind of funny too. He's a Mark-ass CHUMP.

Speaking of which, do you think the spike in the popularity of the name Brendan in roughly 1997-2000 had anything to do with the career of Brendan Fraser? Its peak was in 1999 (#96), which is when The Mummy came out.

xpost CLIFF? I've only met one person our age named Cliff, and he was a stoner-lookin' doofus who used to intern for PFM.

Oh, man. If I had to justify every hour I was here... whew.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:43 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, it was more a humor-oriented guess than a real guess. If I'd have been serious I probably would have gone for someting like Dave or Bob or maybe some serious yuppie shit like "Tanner."

I once had a friend named Mark. By the time the dust had settled, he wasn't really anybody's friend anymore. He had my ex-girlfriend on his arm, though.

I remember doing mushrooms with him and some other people on Eeyore's B-day in Austin on year, and we were all off our heads pretty good, and some guy walked up to Mark and said, "You're the devil. I can see it in your eyes." Which fucked with all of us, but not as bad as when some totally different guy later walked up to Mark and said THE EXACT SAME THING. We kinda chalked it up to being some elaborate prank by people setting out to fuck with tripping people, or maybe just the kind of weird coincidence that only happens on hallucinogens. But as it turns out, he actually WAS the devil.

That's a good story, except the part about him being a fuck.

I go ahead and try to register and the password-sender dealy fucks up, and now I can't post as danno martinez because I can't fucking log in. OH WELL

― d. martinez, Friday, 1 September 2006 17:53 (seventeen years ago) link

That's some wench on a wrench.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Wrenching, isn't it?

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:01 (seventeen years ago) link

She's totally fucking that thing.

I was watching Ham On The Street just the other day, and he went to the laundromat to cook food in a dryer. I wish I could remember what he was cooking.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

it's shocking is what it is. that's not in the f.q. or anything, that's just in some residential area. that's too much, i say. it's one thing to be suggestive by having her on a wrench, but that adjustable arm pointing toward her cooch.....

― jesse, Friday, 1 September 2006 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

What the hell is Ham On The Street?

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, I think it's cute and innocent. Like a little girl sliding down the bannister.

xpost A show on Food Network.

A girl sliding down the bannister only to impale her vag on a giant tool.

Oh. I thought it was your name for a vagrant in your neighborhood or something.

"Vag-rant": The poor woman's Vagina Monologues

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:15 (seventeen years ago) link

lolz

― d. martinez, Friday, 1 September 2006 18:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Tee hee.

Having seen the Vagina Monologues, I would prefer Vag-rant, I'm pretty sure.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

>>I know, dingleberry. but we all know it's not the same there.

Why is it not the same here? Because we don't have a vast archive of the last 6 years of ILX, which you've been around for like 10% of?

Jesse believes in God now and thinks that Jesus died for your sins.

― jenny (pullapartgirl), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Jesus died for somebody's sins but not Jesse's.

There's worse kinds of crazy to be, but yeah, that's pretty crazy.

this fucking office is dead. people come, there's flurry of meetings and donuts for a few days, and then everyone leaves. and my favorite union dude is in amsterdam.

― jesse, Friday, 1 September 2006 18:56 (seventeen years ago) link

This is my office. The girl by the window is AMEDB. The girl by the door was typing on her laptop like that for a good 10 minutes.
