No GSB? What are you kidding?

[Mike Oltmans <moltmans@>]

Tonights message is the GSB in Stata FAQ:

Q: Where will GSB be (try to say that 5 times fast) in the new building?
A: That's a good question and we are glad you asked it.  As a famous 
poet once wrote: "wherefore art thou Romeo?"  We find this profound and 
moving.  We have yet to find Romeo but we may be hot on the heels of a 
choice spot to have GSB.  But for now, lets keep looking for fair sweet 
Romeo and think about 9G.

Q: Where is the GSB fridge?
A: This is another good question which we are also glad you have asked. 
 As a different, yet also famous poet noted:
    I hold it true, whate'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.
Ah no words were ever truer or more wildly misused.  The fridge is in 
Stata.  That's all we know.  Its being looked for.  It will be found. 
The old 1970's fridge (thanks Carl for the years of memories it has 
brought us).  And has been replaced by a more modern fridge from the 
kind folks of SLS (thanks Jim for the years of memories to come).

Q: Where are the GSB fridge contents?
A: To which we reply.  Some mysteries are better left for another day.

Q: Where are the GSB fridge patrons?
A: Many of them are lost in previously uncharted dimensions of the Stata 
center.  Others wander lost, too and fro, in the floatsam and jetsam of 
the old ghost village.  Some are entranced in their offices, enslaved by 
the overwhelming yellow glow that baths them from dawn til dusk.  At 
least a few are desperately trying to smuggle themselves into the 
building in orange crates to avoid being tracked by their ID tags.  And 
at least 2 were seen strangled to near death by rainbow colored lanyards 
as they quickly past one another in the halls.

Q: Why isn't there GSB tonight?
A: See questions 1-4 above.

Q: Will there be a GSB next week?
A: You betcha.  And a big glorious kick off of a GSB in Stata it will be.
