That depends, do you call finding out at 9:30 in the A.M. that you need to do a 4 page ad by the end of the day and you still don't all of the pictures for it, getting off to a good start. If so mine is off to a thrilling start.

Handed in the first of the paperwork for tenure today. Always a fun year.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 83: Hot Toddies and Cool Weather

stayed late at work to talk to my boss and the division chief... wanted to stop by after dealing with HR all day long... for that brown-nosing I got my first true taste of the "Orange Crush"... oof. Must leave work at a normal time in the future.

edit: but the first day of work went fairly well seeing as it involved nothing but wall-to-wall HR.

so, what's your first planned act of tenure... might I suggest a little self-manuring of the school president's lawn?

Well, pull up a chair and let me tell you about "70's" music. ;)

There are a few "older" posters in here, so I'll throw out a few more names that some of you whippersnappers may not recognize, but should listen to if time permits. (I've seen them all live)

Yes
Jethro Tull
Wishbone Ash
The Tubes
Nectar
Montrose
Chick Corea
Mahavishnu Orchestra

There's more to "classic rock" than:
Rolling Stones
Led Zeppelin
The Who
The Kinks
The Animals
Grateful Dead
Lynyrd Skynyrd
ELO
etc.
^ Saw all of them live too

Todd has been a favorite of mine for many years. I first saw him in 1975 on his "Another Live" tour with his band at the time, Utopia. The show tomorrow night is one of seven or so he's doing in the states. He actually reunited Utopia, and the first 35 minutes of the show is a return to his hits. After an intermission, Todd and Co. will perform his album A Wizard A True Star in it's entirety. It's a complete retro show, with the original outfits they used to wear and all the campiness that goes with a '70's rock show. Naturally I won't be under the influence of the same substances that fueled my vigor in the '70's, but a couple of martini's and some, well, other stuff and it's best if I have a driver. :)

I realize you were probably being facetious, but as you can see, I'm pretty passionate about some of the old stuff I grew up on. :o

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 83: Hot Toddies and Cool Weather

Hmm. Will my old avatar show up now that I've renewed Extra?

ETA: Yes! But I need a new one.

No, you don't go nuts after getting tenure. You go nuts after getting full Professor :p :D

Yeah, I was "a little out there" too. ;)

I have not heard of Devapid :confused:



Make it happen - positive thoughts ^

Devapid was Carlos Santana's name when he played in the Mahavishnu, some religous thing or phase they went thru. Probably drug related, like everything else back then. Not that I would know anything about that:D
