We’re moving from Lotus Notes to Outlook 2003 here at work today.<\/p>\n

My computer has been archiving Lotus emails for something like 2 hours now. The IT people are appalled that I don’t delete email.<\/p>\n

IT Guy:<\/b> (looking at the ongoing archive) Ah, well that’s the sent box. People rarely delete anything in their sent box, so it usually takes
\na while to do the archiving.
\nMe:<\/b> I never delete anything. In any box.
\nIT Guy:<\/b> What?
\nMe:<\/b> I have a bad memory, so I never delete anything in case I need to go back and remember what was going on.
\nIT Guy:<\/b> (stares in horrified silence)
\nMe:<\/b> So this might take a while, huh?
\nIT Guy:<\/b> (more horrified silence)
\nMe:<\/b> Okay.
\nIT Guy:<\/b> (dies)<\/p>\n

: By the same token, I’ll have one extra trivia game this month.
\n: December has five Thursdays, not four.

\n: It isn’t their fault the Earth’s orbit is 365 1\/4 days long.
\n: Yes it is.
\n: They don’t control angular momentum.
\n: You know this?
\n: Did you ASK them?
\n: Well…uh…
\n: I mean, people don’t…
\n: Okay, no. I haven’t asked them.
\n: I’m beginning to think you may be involved as well, seeing as you’re so hot to defend them.
\n: I have a list of 49 card carrying angular momentum controllers… and you may be on it.
\n: :-S<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
