That must be my copy of Yellow Fish Under Plastic Times. It's a trade magazine.

Hmmm. The cigarette I smoked on the way in to work?

That's just a normal day at my job. Lotsa people, no one doing anything.

There is an old, slow, crappy printer in my office that I use for verfications. The phone constantly rings.

You've peered into my very soul.

Shawnee,
I received the June issue of ASHRAE Journal and the lead story is "The Age of Aquariums." I was trying to think of a clever way to find out if that's where you got the inspiration for your new title.

I guess it didn't go over.

Nah, I'm just dense sometimes. I've never heard of the ASHRAE journal. It would have been funny if that had been the inspiration and I would have read your post and thought "WTF?"

Actually, I heard Age of Aquarius on the radio, first time in years, and I thought about turning that into a user title in some way. (This could go under "You know you've been a dwellar for too long when..." thread.)

I liked the effort! It was definitely worth a shot.
