...that was my downfall.
My daughter introduced me to XKCD a while ago. One slow day at work, I was investigating the links, and came upon QC. The comic of the day was
1724.
Well, the questions were immediate:
Why is it so odd that Hannelore would run an espresso machine?
Why a surprise kiss?
And why did the other characters consider it so dangerous?
I was hooked. I went back a few days, but realized I'd have to start from the beginning, and went to the archives. After two very unproductive days at work, and an anti-social evening in between, I had my answers. Now I wonder what will happen next?
And, on a more personal note, I am rather older than many here. I'm an IT manager (mainframes
) in north Texas, but originally from Brooklyn, NY.
Now, if only I had one of those special brooms...
