MarginOfError Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 So I came to the DC area for a statistical software conference this week. It's been a great conference, and I've picked up a lot of hints that I think will really benefit my work. Unfortunately, I hit a snag....my car just started overheating I have it in the shop now, and I'm sitting in the lobby of the garage. Lucky for me, they have wifi here, and it isn't secure. But now I may be here for a long long time and be really bored. ENTERTAIN ME! Quote
MarginOfError Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Posted July 23, 2010 They found a hole in my radiator. Apparently it was it's time to go. Fortunately, at 2:00 PM they were still able to get parts, and I should be on the road in a couple hours. And I was worried I'd be spending another night in a hotel. Quote
MarginOfError Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Posted July 23, 2010 I just heard them start my car. I hope that means it's done. ya'll have done a terrible job entertaining me. I had to resort to talking to my wife. Quote
nbblood Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 You scared me off when you said "Entertain MOE". To me that means Entertain Measures of Effectiveness. I deal with that topic more than I need to on a daily basis, so I avoided the thread. Now I realize you meant "moi", as in French for "me". So, now I can entertain you. Oh, but you said the car is fixed now. Nevermind. Hope you had a great conversation with your wife! I also hope the car doesn't break down on you again! So, in lieu of entertainment, I'm passing along best wishes! Quote

MarginOfError Posted July 23, 2010 Author Report Posted July 23, 2010 Hope you had a great conversation with your wife! I also hope the car doesn't break down on you again!I did! I don't think I would have survived this wait without her. Thank you, snookems! (wow, I've never called her that before) Quote
Guest Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 Oh good it worked. I didn't post anything because I knew if you don't find us entertaining you'll have to talk to your wife. It's about time you find her entertaining! Quote
Dravin Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 Dang, sounds like I'm to late to post this. Quote

MarginOfError Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Posted July 24, 2010 Yes but have you met his wife? I haven't. What's she like?By the way everyone, I made it home at 10:30 last night. Thanks for putting up all that stuff after I left Quote
Wingnut Posted July 25, 2010 Report Posted July 25, 2010 Yes but have you met his wife? OUCH!That wasn't very nice. Quote
Mahone Posted July 25, 2010 Report Posted July 25, 2010 Pam and I weren't the only ones that got the humour in MOE's post were we.... or are the rest of the posts too dry for me to pick up on? Quote
pam Posted July 25, 2010 Report Posted July 25, 2010 OUCH!That wasn't very nice. Now my dear, you know I like MOE's wife or I would never talk to her or have her as a facebook friend. Quote
