No, but there is a bottle of maker's mark in the file cabinet.

Two of my favorite stories...

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Have you found your red stapler yet?

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

So there's a hole in the wall, and they wadded something up in it?

Funnily enough it is due to a promotion now that I'm the Director of Engineering Development and no longer customer facing I get to work in the Bat Cave with President of the Company (yes..  that is his office) and the web guys.  No more money in it at least this year...  I'll take a crappy office and my same salary over having customers any day though!

Yep..  hard to see but a big honking I-beam ends right there.  The mortar not totally tight around it so it gets a bit drafty in the winter.  The wadding is some foam packing sheets.

The office is an attic over our office.  This part of the building was original garage for the very first car dealership in town.
