Last day, 5:00PM: I’m out’a here.

The company computer is gone, the company cell phone is gone, all the little gizmos and doodads that go with them are gone.

I have nothing planned other than a few final tweaks to the work I’ve been doing for the past couple of months.

Everything in your computer is, at its lowest level, remembered as a set of binary “bits” each of which can be either a “1” or a “0” and if you arrange lots and lots AND LOTS of those together in just the right combination, you can see this web page on your LCD; How synapses between nerves work – they either conduct or they don’t, very much like those “1"s and “0"s in the computer; and Work-days I have left before retirement.

And while there are three work days to go – they are the “three of a kind” mentioned in the title – they really won’t be alike.

You cock it with the handle and then “fire” a single chuff of air.

So, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen, not to mention Rudolf and his red nose, were all empty baggers?
