Lunchtime ephemera

I noticed I was hungry *right* at noon. That never happens. Usually I wait until 1 or 2, or if I'm busy, skip lunch all together. I'm strangely into barbecue sauce lately. I think this homemade molasses chipotle stuff that S4's brother and girlfriend made for us is the bomb-diggety. I'm putting it on everything. If they sold it, I'd buy it. S4 is underwhelmed.

Spacebug nonstandard spelling quirkiness:
Should I really feel bothered by the common usage of "alright"? I was just getting to the point that "donut" doesn't bug me so much. Gradeschool programming always maintained that "all right" is two words, damnit.

My Job Rules, part kerbillion:
I get automatic "out of office" email responses like this:
Howdy!
Artguy C. is painting pirate scenes in a bedroom this week, so eMail time is shang-Hi'd for now.


I am a Consumer Whore, and how:
So, Lex pointed me towards this nifty textile motorcycle jacket. It's non-leather. It is on sale. I think I want. Black, or stripes? I am conflicted, but leaning towards black. Help me decide, should my rationalizing proove fruitful.

Stripes = visibility, and would be my choice.

Usually I'd say Black, but I like the stripes -- They're sporty.

"Alright" is alright.

black looks nicer and cooler to me. if you want more visibility then you can attach reflective material as you wish and that also make it cooler because then it is custom.

alright doesn't bother me.

All right! It's all right!!

Stripes get my vote.

like everyone else, i like the stripes. at first i thought that blue was more you. or red. but then i decided that black w/ white stripes was the way to go.

oh yes, the stripes. yes indeed.

Stripes are good for visability. They look sporty. They are also a bit, hm, trendy? dare I say. So I understand why one might lean to black, just because it'll outlive all trends. Black is classic.
(having split the issue right down the middle, I'll admit I am no help at all :)
