Whatever happened to Don from Mississippi? I was just thinking about some of the folks who used to be here, and he was one I thought of.

for those that are interested.
Who knew Satan had HR responsibilities? I always saw the Prince of Darkness as more of a sales or marketing guy.
That's why they are "The Ones We Never Speak Of".
But I digress.
So which of these are correct:
Those of Whom We Do Not Speak
The Ones We Dont Talk about No More
The Never Spoken Of Ones
Those We Speak of Not
You are so kind to ask about me. Tony Kessler from M. Lee Smith sent me an e-mail to let me know.
I'm so happy to see that you are all here, especially Paul, the author of the legendary Hiaku contest. Frank weren't you the winner with the one about drug testing? I see that some things never change and Ray is still not wearing pants.
I'm on the road almost constantly. My goal is to speak at every state SHRM conference. Last count was 36, when I go to Maine in a month.
The biggest news I have is that I finally wrote my first management book. My Publisher says it's doing well, but I'm never sure about this stuff. It was the 4th best selling book at the 2006 SHRM National Conference.
Will any of you be at SHRM in Las Vegas in June?. I'm doing two mega sessions. One on Politics, Power & Influence and another on the Difference Between Management and Leadership. If any of you get there, please come introduce yourself.
I miss you guys! Thanks for asking about me! Call if I can help any of you in any way.

ACU Frank is the WOCO Frank that won the infamous haiku contest? Is that true Frank?

I was kinder and gentler then. Haiku does that to you.
And why did you stop posting? Why wouldn't anyone want to hang out with us?
Hello?
Your 4th suggestion sounds very Monty Python. Or very Wayne's World, if you just add some punctuation.
A great challenge of mine is that I have trouble focusing on the content of a message if the grammar is a wreck. I have a compulsion to edit stuff to make it readable.
Years ago, I took a writing composition class. I was feeling quite full of myself when the professor told me it was very well written, technically. Then my ego deflated when he added "and it's the most boring thing I've ever read." He said he'd rather see more excitement and less "perfection." The story of my life. x;-)
I guess you can tell how happy I was working there. :P
