Herve's Bar & Grill

[edX]

you're burning a bit late tonite.

no the bus that drives by spewing fumes while people bitch about your smoking on the sidewalk. that bus story.

i still say get me yuppies for bondage i will be on the bus - with leather.

btw - i am working on my phd, getting my masters along the way is something i should have done in a couple of months or so.
as for my disertation (thesis not required at my school), i don't want to say too much but it is probably going to be about how new clients perceive a therapist based upon how they are dressed. kind of goes to role model theory and perceptual congruity.

i would never purposely talk down to you or anyone else on this site unless they said something really stupid and bragged about what an expert they are for knowing it. doesn't happen much thank goodness. so feel free to talk psych all you want at any level you feel comfortable with. just don't expect me to know everything. i most certainly don't.

and yea, there is something about smokers that gives them away sometimes.

ok, steaks and lobster are ready, everybody help yourselves. except that one with the fumes that will burn your a**hole just from smelling it, that's admiral's cajun steak

[AdmiralAK]

mmmm my cajun steak is ready
bring it on (it doesnt matter it its 8 AM ) -- I love spicy food



Hey Ed.... your gf is one polemical woman -- are you sure you dont have that encounter on VHS --- hehehe :-) it would be quite amusing because in this situation you can substitute "cigarette" with "cell phone" and you get the same result from such uptight a*holes lol


Klink -- what do you mean by "what's your gig?" clarify hehe. As for going full blast... yep -- thats me --- its very tiring but my (little) vacation time makes up for it :-) (I also go full blast during vacation but in the non-work direction )

I'm rereading that last smoking post I did. Ohwa, I shouldn't have used all those 'ands', 'yous'. Could sound like I was getting a little snippy with you Phil. Not the way it was intended. Perhaps I should visit the cus thread and channel those cathexis there.

Admiral a gig is a booking for musicians in narrow definitions. In a broad definition, a job, a vocation. In this case I meant it as 'what kind of work do you do'.
Ding! Admiral you get $10 for using polemical. Nice.

Not later than usual Ed. Around 3am I'll start feeling sleepy.
I thought a thesis and dissertation were one in the same. Neither I've done myself.
I would find your dissertation very interesting. I often find myself forming opinions about people when I first meet them based on what they are wearing, what they say, how they react to a question or statement, facial/body gestures and stances. Some will say you shouldn't be so quick to form opinions about people on first impressions, but I've found my instinctional feelings about a first meet are usually correct. So I'll tend to rely on them more often than I used to.

Jeez, Shawn 'PDiddy' Combs was just on the news ringing in the NYSE. Now I've seen it all.

Basically at work I manage a "media lab" (load equipment to staff that need them) and the people that work for me. Make sure that equipment is up to snuf, and when people in the department have probs with their computers they call me. I handle upgrades ans installs as well.


I was aware of the musical connotation of "gig" -- on the DJ front- no gigs -- just some independent work in my studio (my bedroom & my mac & my stereo hehe :P)


I think Ed is gathering info for his dissertation here, "the lifestules and habits of macusers, and teh trolls that surround them" lol -- I want to be there when he makes his defence ;-)

Hey! Ed's going for his PhD.... We're gonna have to start callin him Ol' Doc Spruiell!

[tagliatelle]

BlingBling 3k12 you have stolen my hearth. I think that you are better than others. If you don't get anything for your money ask 1 Appleshare and laugh just of the machating people. I love the graphics work that you have done for me. I have a graduate in informatics, maybe you can follow my steps.

[AdmiralAK]

sound investing advice from herve but apple stocks now

[edX]

yes blingbling - someday you will get to call me doc. for now it's just ed. i better pour you a double mountain dew considering all the energy you are going to need to figure out this buying a new imac deal. I kinda think talking to your dad about the tax deduction deal might be the best way to go. if your dad is willing, he will also know more about how to do it i would guess.

tolya - the gf is normally very tolerant and ignores stupidity very well. but she is also very big on standing up for her rights when push comes to shove. and i am not gathering any info for anything pertaining to my studies here on this site. this is strictly fun. and therapy for me

klink - theses are shorter and less involved than a dissertation. a thesis is associated with a masters and a dissertation with a phd. some schools make you do both. mine only requires the dissertation. interesting you should mention all the other things that go into your 1st impression a long with how someone is dressed. there has been a lot of research done on that. but none on how clothing reflects the impressions we make. the best most people can do is quote from dress for success which is not empirically researched at all. all those other things, the behavior things are the best clues for our instincts but some people do let their notions of the way someone should dress get in the way.

so herve - what do you think of your bar & grill so far? are we doing good service to your name?

ok, everybody the next round is on Blingbling - he said we could just add it to his apple account
