If the HIVE had a Heroes Power, what would it be?

Whats up Mustrum?

Everything that's not hold down, Reveille!

What will be up is the plane that brings me from Europe to America (I can't be more specific, since I have no idea which airports I have to use) so I can visit the Microsoft PDC in Los Angeles at the end of this month. As I posted earlier - this opportunity arised surprisingly and while I was on vactions - when I got back to work, I had an e-mail saying that I show register for the event ASAP. And now our departments secretary will have to figure out how I get there and where I stay - and I am wondering if there are any LA EN Worlders or IT EN Worlders that might be nearby... I don't know, of course, whether I will have any time at all, and don't really know what to expect yet. But it's pretty cool to get such opportunities. It's certainly not what I expected or could hope for when I took this job 2 years ago.

Well yeah. At least as far as I know. Although recent school shootouts around here too, is starting to prove that the laws are pretty ineffictive. But they are making them even stricter apparently.

Laws can be pretty ineffective if people really set their mind into breaking them. And then you have to ramp up the means to enforce them, which can be ugly, too. (And fails, too.) The problem often seems to start once the first precedent is set.

Or it's just a matter of selective perception.

Edit: Never mind, might be a bit stretching into the no politics zone.

Gah!

Having a fire alarm test that requires you to go down 8 flights of stairs, stand around, and then climb back up again is NOT FUN.

Yes, but it's good for you to know what to do when the real situation arises...

That sounds like a fantastic opportunity - you lucky Wizard!

Yay! The orange text is back! Huzzah! Hurrah!

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Well hive, I'm calling it a night. Until later.

So why not join in the fun and develop a Hivemind text color of your own? C'mon everyone, let's make the Hive more colorful!

Well you remember what happened when I tried that... It's not pretty... Well okay, it was pretty, but it wasn't fun to do
