Fantastic word game

Alan Thicke tickets, in my opinion, would make for an unusual Christmas gift.

Especially when one considers that I have no idea who Alan Thicke is. I assume he must be a celebrity of some sort. Is he by some chance related to the performer Robin Thicke?

An unusual Christmas gift would be ANYTHING Raptus does for all the ladies at TFWG....

(psst...Darth - Alan Thicke is Robin Thicke's father... :) )

1000 pages have been recorded in the continuing saga of TFWG and now it's just a matter of time until we hit the 10,000 post mark!


TFWG has only 8,705 pages to go until we reach that ever important 10,000 page milestone, so for your convenence, the library staffers have calculated that based upon a 12/3/06 starting point with (with means so many things) a 12/07/09 1,000 page mark, our estimated time of arrival at Page 10,000 will be 12/11/37, which is why it is important to invite and involve the stop by and put another piece in the jigsaw puzzle types
 
The jigsaw puzzle types appreciate Silkie's mathematics prowess and I am quite sure that we will all still be here in 2037 for Page 10,000 as, at that point, we will all be enjoying real life retirement at that point.


Although in the world of TFWG, there is no retirement. And, ya know, as we got real close to Page 1000, you guys managed to burn through a good 5 or 6 pages a day so it's always possible we could hit that 10,000 page mark by, maybe, 2036. ;)

The wikipedia page for Alan Thicke HAS to be on there too man!
"Dad on Growing Pains" ring a bell?
"Las Vegas is calling" ring a bell? C'mon, ya gotta give Alan Thicke his due.

At that point where Alan Thicke's name was invoked into the conversation, I kinda figured everyone knew who Alan Thicke was.

;)
 
Who Alan Thicke was is now a minor entertainment factoid, but here's a hint: It had something to do with Joanna Kerns.
 
Up here in the executive offices, we are managing to get things done this week even without the daily office musings of dmargalotti.


Since our band camp director is on vacation, we've sent some of the interns to Hawaii for a few days to check out a couple of band camp locations. They have been thanking us profusely. ;D
 
Leaking out here would pretty much defeat the purpose of having sixteen pages to roll through all by himself when he returns.
 
When he returns, dmar may be surprised to learn that the TPS reports now require a new cover sheet.

D_v, I believe you have unintentionally stumbled upon a letter-perfect description of Alan Thicke.
 
A new cover sheet sample was posted on his office door, emailed to him, posted on his desk, the back of his office door, on the refrigerator in the break room, on all phones and computers, and on his private restroom doors, so there's no legitimate way he can avoid seeing it.
 
The cut on my lower right leg was received at a previous job almost seven years ago, when I slipped and fell on a pile of rocks.


Epilogue: It wasn't so much a "cut" as it was a "huge gash requiring twelve stitches". In any case, an otherwise perfectly good pair of Wranglers ended up meeting their death in that fall. But the Vans I was also wearing at that moment only got dinged-up a little bit, and are still functional to this day. ;o)

Thanks Quad, I had forgotten about Growing Pains. I was at work when I posted that and got called away to a meeting, and just kind-of forgot to look up Alan on Wikipaedia.
 
A pile of rocks got in his way
and Dave's plan spoiled that day
mowing the lawn and harvesting hay
running through daisies happy and gay
 
"Gay" used to mean "happy and carefree," then for a while it meant "man who likes other men," and lately it means "lame," which is more related to the second usage than the first.
 
The first day back from vacation for dmargalotti will be chock full of stuff to do as PowerWorld has received a record number of requests from around the globe for future band camp locations and all those requests are handled only by the director himself.



Interestingly, three of those global requests come from Iceland in the general vicinity of that active volcano. I have taken the liberty of chartering a jet for our band camp director to travel there mid-week upon his return from vacation. Unfortunately, for him, no interns are available for that time. I suggest he pack for an extended trip just in case his travel plans are ash-ridden. ;)
 
The director himself will, we trust, make known to all that our library has even outdone the Queens Borough Library, and by way of reminder has a language lab, so that visiting dignitaries may learn English with Rosetta Stone.
