I've decided to stop answering
I've decided to stop answering my office phone. I can't remember the last time I got a call for me here, but at least once or twice a day I answer the phone---it's always Lucia's boyfriend, or Dan's girlfriend, or maybe one of Joe's business contacts. Occasionally it's someone else wanting one of them. People who call me generally go straight for the cell phone these days.
So if you're thinking of calling me at the office, don't bother.
Q: How many computational linguists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: Only one, but he has to watch you do it a hundred thousand times first.
