4 hours of sleep makes the world crunchy in milk

Somebody on alt.gothic found the old a.g quotes page. Keep in mind this was ten years ago - long before Deja News, never mind google. And it's still up. That's centuries in internet years.

What made me laugh is that somebody submitted a post I made back when I still used to work in the virology lab.

"I've been working on a new project at work for the last couple of months. The people I'm working with are great, but the project... well, lets just say we don't have very high hopes for it. Too bad really.

In the midst of getting some rather discouraging results from our last set of experiments, I got to order some new lab coats for the four of us. They arrived last week.

The name tags say; "War" "Famine" "Pestilence" and "Death".

Just thought I'd share. ;->"

I had completely forgotten about doing that. Somehow I don't think I could get away with that kind of thing at that bank.

Besides, there are five people in PD Admin.

ROFLOL...

Yea, I don't think anyone would get the humor at my current work place, in fact I am pretty sure there is a regulation in place about that sort of thing where I work.

But OMG I so need one of those lab coats. And I was just about to order one...no...better resist that urge.

I'm dizzy with the nostalgia!

They'd totally get it at my current place of work, but there's 13 of us and we'd have to fight over them, which might get nasty.

The fifth one is Heart.


(Yes, a Captain Planet joke. I went there.)

Oh gawd, me too!

Well there goes my productivity for the day.

Crap, I'm all nostalgic now.

Excellent! :o)

Some of those quotes are more than 10 years old.
*good old days*

I hate to tell you this, but ten years ago is not "long before Deja News" as I happened to be a regular Deja News user 97-99. I also first used Google in 98, and switched my default search engine immediately (although it didn't have any link to usenet at the time).

But those lab coats are for the win!

Well if actually do the math, some of those quotes are from 1993-94.

10 years is shorthand in my brain for "a long time". Given that we are now on Convergence 15 - yeah, it's a little longer than that.
