One thing you'll like about Northport, however, is that the movie IN AND OUT, with Kevin Kline and Tom Selek, was largely filmed in Northport. The diner in it is right there on Main Street. (It was known as Otto's Shipwreck Diner at the time of filming and is now Tim's Shipwreck Diner. It's my favorite place to eat.) It really is an attractive town, right on the water. It had a significant history of rum-running during Prohibition.Lugubrioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02534854054069270796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9442503.post-54007334993429900372008-10-07T21:52:00.000-04:002008-10-07T21:52:00.000-04:00BZ: as far as i know, living in Australia, i think...BZ: as far as i know, living in Australia, i think it is just a comic. a good one though :-)Stashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16476117166095114891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9442503.post-64034997728387756472008-10-06T02:59:00.000-04:002008-10-06T02:59:00.000-04:00Second from the right in the eighth panel: Isn't t...Second from the right in the eighth panel: Isn't that Sarah Palin?Lugubrioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02534854054069270796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9442503.post-25213490698680506012008-10-01T03:09:00.000-04:002008-10-01T03:09:00.000-04:00One of your best tables!One of your best tables!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9442503.post-38587147059487746032008-09-28T00:40:00.000-04:002008-09-28T00:40:00.000-04:00Hey, I hope things are going to be OK with the hur...Hey, I hope things are going to be OK with the hurricane/storm heading your way.

Being an IT Project Manager for a smaller company, I will dispatch one of my server techs to the place where the computer is located to fix as we do not have a dedicated workspace in the server room--they have cubicles which do not have the space. So I did not find it contrived that he would have been in the meeting space at all--the size of the company was never indicated. Thanks to Greg for bringing back Dave--I really enjoy the character and would love seeing him in more situations. Plus the fact there are a lot of gay techs in the industry, but the straight guys seem to be all we hear and see from!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9442503.post-54318440582052156042008-09-24T13:50:00.000-04:002008-09-24T13:50:00.000-04:00Great episode!

Let's not nitpick about whether he would have been in the room... the message being sent (in my humble opinion) is that we shouldn't allow ignorance, prejudice or bias in the work (or overall) world! This applies to physical disabilities as well as race color, sexual preference, etc. It's geat to see Dave back. Let's see more of him!

I've done troubleshooting on laptops in the same room as meetings before... but that was a small organization, onsite where I didn't have a separate work station, and a very rare occurrence. This situation wasn't unbelievable for me, though. Convenient plot device or not, I still loved this one :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9442503.post-62794740550328007452008-09-23T23:26:00.000-04:002008-09-23T23:26:00.000-04:00You do realize in the real world that would neve...You do realize in the real world that would never happen right? For one thing Dave wouldn't be repairing that lap top right there while that meeting taking place. He would be at his work station doing it.<BR/><BR/>For those who are going to argue that the laptop belong to one of those in the meeting.
