An ex-grilf of mine, Kristi, was made assistant quality lead for Opus, a project I was working on at Apple at the time; I got mail from the primary quality lead telling me so. As the horror began to sink in, J and I went to a party at j.j and gnat's new home. It had a moat in front of it. While wading across I was bitten on the foot by a rattlesnake.
