Zoom zoom zoom - that reminds me of a Bing bang episode.
Sheldon drinks coffee and thinks he is Electric man or something?
Too much of heaven can bring you underground
Heaven can always turn around
Too much of heaven, our life is all hell bound
Heaven, the kill that makes no sound

Don't tell me that DD has been at Wikipedia[^] again! (Section 'Romani loanwords in English')
cushty or cooshtie (good - likely related to "cushti" in Hindi which means happy/good).

"Characteristic for Romani is the fusion of postpositions of the second Layer (or case marking clitics) to the nominal stem, and the emergence of external tense morphology that attaches to the person suffix."
Well that's alright then.

Yeah, and there was me thinking The Clitics was a 70's beat combo.

If you are the father then they're not mine so QED they're someone else's sprogs.

You can't tell a mountain lion from your wife?

In case you didn't catch his joke...
Cougar (i.e. mountain lion) is a term used in the U.S. for older women who go after younger men.

I know. And the mother in law is usually affectionately called 'the old dragon'

...since you have your country listed as Germany, didn't know if you heard the term before...

That's right. I spent a few years in Texas, so that I (hopefully) get a little more than most people would expect. Still, there also are enough instances where you would have been exactly right. I sit somewhere between the chairs.

Well we are in our new office.
Took two days to get the network working (firewall/switch config I am told). Some folks in 8 am to 10 pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Me only to 5 pm Friday and Saturday. Made a quick visit on Sunday but the network was still down so I could not see how things were going. (The servers were up.)
Get in this morning and could not clock in as the IP address is denied with ADP. Other IP's are also giving us problems.
However, the network is functioning so I was able to check and see that the database is well and synchronizing with the "hot" fail-over system.
Had setup my work station on Saturday in the corner of the workstation but moved it to the side this morning.
Still looking for my old UPS and a temperature gauge (for the server room), also no floor mat for the chair on carpet.
All in all not bad.
