not punk enough

I’m a Macintosh guy. Never have owned a Windows computer and don’t plan on ever purchasing one, but most Tibetan text input tools are written for the PC. My intention and the very reason for dressing as a punk on Thursday was to win the computer (for the benefit of all sentient beings). I figured I could help more people if I had a Wintel machine. Alas, I didn’t win, but my motivation was proper and I dedicated all of my efforts to helping others.

That is... until they announced the winner. I would have proudly lost to Duane, but he is support staff and didn’t qualify for the prize. I’m not support staff (not getting paid salary), but I am a senior (not just an agent) so I’m thinking maybe I didn’t win because of that. I’m hoping that’s the case because, although you can’t really tell from the picture, I’m looking way more punk rock that the winner. [More pictures will be posted soon, just need to develop the role.]

Yeah, I was a little bummed about that too. Doesn’t Duane look good though? He just gave this appearance like he knew “what was up” — I’ve never really talked to him, but my guess is that he’s old school.

i’d totally agree with that, have you talked to him yet? he has a nice jacket!

Haven’t talked to him yet, no. He’s a trainer and I have some refresher training on Thursday, so maybe then.
