It's that "life" thing again. Well. Not really, in a way. I originally postponed it because it was too soon after the Quassia caps, and now I'm postponing it because I want to be able to take Visa orders, and I have to find out how to do that, and I'm lazy, so I don't, so.

The nice thing about being a company is that it looks like I'll be able to deduct the sales tax (23%) off of everything I send abroad, which means that things'll be cheaper. Or I'll just buy heavier, more expensive mugs. I'll have to do t-shirts as well this year, though, to get above the limit that allows me to deduct the tax. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Can we have sweatshirts as well please? I'm wishing I'd ordered more than one Red Gnus sweatshirt last year. -- Eze Ogwuma ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

(What I've Been Doing The Past Weeks Part VI: I'm working for a stock broker (!), and last week I dEpLoYeD the, uh, "trading engine". (That's what other firms call that thing.) So I had to spend a week at the stock exchange to see how things went. (Ok.) Being a back seat stock broker is kinda fun (Buy! Buy! Ooops, too late.) but really boring. I just can't seem to work up any enthusiasm for, eh, (other people's) money. I tried to view the experience as an anthropology expedition -- you know, study the natives and all of that, but they really aren't all that interesting. Some dull, dull, dull "English" jargon (mainly limited to the word "yes") and... Sorry, I couldn't bring myself to pay attention to what I was thinking, but I did notice something else about them that was kinda interesting, but I forget. Anyways.) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

You could sell gnus 'stock' after the mugs... Maybe you should just sell gnus 'STOCKings' instead, which would fall in line with the underwear trend. -- "Ninjas aren't dangerous.
