What do you assign to Orthanc? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Club remixes of a rather...profane...rant. It amuses me rather more than it should.

Crows. I love listening to them greet dawn en masse, but they started this morning at 4:53.

They're an hour and a half early. It's only March.

I love Crows. There's a clan of them living on our office building. They have a big tree in the 'crocodile pit' light well in the middle with two nests in it and two more perched on the ledges, and if you go high enough you can see in to the eggs. They're deadly territorial though, one of them perches above the entrance doors and shrieks at people coming into the building

Crebain of Government Land! Run for your lives! Heh.

Having beloved books returned after a loan so long you had given up hope of return.... Only not in the Shire because I spent the time I should have devoted to house and garden to rereading....

New England weather, which can be very confusing at times. We had some beautiful weather the past few days, which was quite refreshing after months of wearing jackets. Then yesterday the high got to 93F (34C), which was in fact a bit too hot and very unusual for April. Today it's supposed to only get to 59F (15C). How on earth can the temperature be cut in half (and a little more) in 24 hours?

Okay, I know New England weather does tend to be bipolar (much like my hometown of Boise actually), but c'mon this is a bit extreme. Can Mother Nature please decide whether it's spring or summer already?

I assign getting a new computer, normally I'd assign this to the Shire, but my lovely father put parental controls on that thing, so now I can only go on at certain times. It also doesn't have internet on it yet, probably will b in a couple of days though.

Customer Services - I phoned 3 lots today. The two where I was ordering / checking progress were super-efficient friendly and helpful. The one I needed to complain about I was hanging on for ages waiting for an operative to be free before I gave up. Funny that
