Wednesday's Nantucket Factoid

"The headlamp from Locomotive #1 is one of the only items left from the Nantucket railroad."

In other news, I have no power AGAIN. This is something for which I am decidedly not grateful.

It's Funny-ha-ha not Funny-uh-oh

This morning a new IAESTE intern arrived at our office from Croatia. New interns are a pretty common thing around here so despite the fact that we weren't expecting him we put him right to work on one of our projects. (We're currently hosting interns from Slovakia, Poland, India, Sweden, and Switzerland.)

An hour and a half passes and I start thinking, "Croatia? I don't think we got a Croatian intern this year..."

So I go check with the back office. Sure 'nuff the Bobmeister agrees, "I don't remember a Croatian intern..."

So I go call the IAESTE organization. Turns out the intern is at the wrong worksite.

Oops!

That didn't stop us from putting his butt to work though, did it? :-)

He's now happily off to his position at The U. It was nice while it lasted! I think that 90-minutes is officially the shortest internship we've ever offered.
