Nothing we could do.  |  IP: Logged Jerry Chase Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1068 From: Margate, FL, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 02-26-2002 02:36 PM                       "There was a fiber cut here in Dallas yesterday morning from 1:50PM to 4:30 ish CST." Spoken like a true theatre person. Only theatre people think of morning as lasting after noon.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 02-26-2002 02:41 PM                    Surely morning is defined as the first so many hours after you arise!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 02-26-2002 03:01 PM                     Come on guys, we all know that lunch is served between 5-6pm and that dinner is served at 11-midnight. After midnight is when the real work day begins as the theaters close down. At least that's when I prefer to start my field work. Actually that's also an old saying I picked up from a manager I worked with back in the early 90's. He would always say "good morning" as a standard greeting, regardless of the time. I occasionally find myself doing that, but the look on people's faces is worth it.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-26-2002 04:45 PM                     Which is much the opposite of many Italians, who believe the "evening" starts sometime around 11AM or Noon.  |  IP: Logged
