The dot formerly known as Silver

Silver is no longer a Dot. In recognition of the change, she has changed her office and her name. Henceforth Silver will be known as

We checked on the Dot formerly known as Silver in her new digs. She was chortling. "Look at all of this technology! I've got a scanner and two color printers!! I've got a Phaser.... pointing right at the door... and it's not set on Stun. Just wait till the Black Queen comes around here!"

We asked Silver about her colored printers. "Well, one of them is a little odd. I plugged it in and turned it on and it said it was out of ink. We checked on ink and the book says it uses "colored wax sticks". Hmmm. Colored wax sticks. Is the box by any chance labelled Crayola? Sure enough there was a nice fresh box of crayons available so we loaded it up and tried printing a page. It said 'Warming up. Please wait.' So we waited. And waited. And waited. 45 minutes later the room was filled with the smell of melted crayon and it whirred and clunked several times and then said 'Media jam'. Possibly from the melted crayons? We opened everything that could be opened, expecting to see a puddle of melted crayon and a picket line of tiny imps clutching "Strike!" and "Dangerous workplace!" signs. However, no imps, no crayons, several little broken plastic bits lying about. Perhaps we should have put in a saucer of milk along with the crayons?"

After checking on the Dot formerly known as Silver, we visited a much changed Dotland. Dotland, now containing only Sage, Turquoise, 3/5ths of Purple, and 3/4ths of White Tornado (sounds like a recipe for a drink), is being severely compressed. Next they will move the desks onto the loading dock, which is luckily still in the shade. However as the weather changes, they will be migrating around the building to the front parking lot. It will be a sight to see. Don't miss it!
