The story of my morning: teleconferences, and staring at my computer screen.

Pip says:: That's terrible.

Daniel says:: If you're in outer space do you have to dial 9 to get an outside line?

Big O says:: I need more artifact definitions...

gfmorris says:: I know! I got called into a TC before I even left the house this morning. I tied in via my cell phone and just drove to work while I listened.

wiseacre says:: Is that a special NASA phone? Carbon fiber, weathersealed?

Pip says:: But hey, at least your remote came in!

shularbrau says:: Is that story about us spending billions to develop a pen that would write in space while the Russians just used pencils true, or just commie propaganda?

gfmorris says:: @bigo I have to stretch out the artifacts. I only have so many of them in my office that I can use without getting into trouble with Legal.

orangebeard says:: it looks like you are staring at your photo from yesterday and thinking..."what was I thinking". ha!
Posted: Nov 9th, 2009 - 8:04am - ∞

gfmorris says:: @pip Yes, yes it did. And now I know how to use it.

@shularbrau Billions, maybe not. But did we spend lots of money on it? yes.

gfmorris says:: @orangebeard Yeah, well. Temporary insanity.

jnonfiction says:: I don't care *whose* career you have to ruin, just GET ME TO JUPITER!!
Posted: Nov 9th, 2009 - 8:06am - ∞

gfmorris says:: @jnonfiction /2010/ scared me about going to Jupiter. I'm afraid The Monolith will eat the planet but HAL won't fire the engine in time, and Dr. Chandra will have disabled my calculator-based override, and ...

Can you tell I watched the last half-hour of /2010/ on Saturday?

wiseacre says:: Forget Jupiter, get me to Europa!

ForeverinGreen says:: How do i get a space shuttle like that one? Its sweet!

hale. says:: you should tape a tiny photo of yourself in the window of the space shuttle cockpit.

gfmorris says:: @wiseacre I take that ATTEMPT NO LANDINGS THERE bit damn seriously.

@foreveringreen CLAME to buy one on Amazon, which may not look like mine. Mine I got for the award that's over my right shoulder. You'd, uh, have to work in manned spaceflight and apparently be awesome to get that.

gfmorris says:: @hale I'd rather go over to the USSRC and go get some shots over there. Wonder if they'd let me in the sims ...

KO says:: hiya gfmorris, how are things your way today?
Posted: Nov 9th, 2009 - 10:12am - ∞

tedford says:: no way Legal's going to let you show off that death ray. I think you're resourceful enough to find a way though
Posted: Nov 9th, 2009 - 11:06am - ∞

gfmorris says:: @tedford ... shhhhhhhhh ...

iamaaronmartin says:: I can guess the random space object.

I believe they are referred to as "telephones" and are used for vocal communication.

ThatGuy says:: your expression says it all. C'mon quitin' time.

gfmorris says:: Sadly, this was pretty early in the day for that face. But today was overall a good day, @thatguy.

Rolf Bastard says:: when's the next guessing game?
Posted: Nov 9th, 2009 - 7:12pm - ∞

gfmorris says:: @keifel -1 for two f's.

@mattyc I think we know the pain.

@scrivener Yay indeed! No more running for the self-timer shots.

@rolfbastard Probably Thursday. Feels like a Thursday thing to me.
