  • Good luck with your surgery. Just think of how skinny you will be after being on the liquid diet. Skinny...straight teeth....a HERO t-shirt. What more could you ask for?
  • Hey, I think we all feel this way from time to time. But...y'know, every job has its good points and bad points and its ups and downs. Some weeks I just want to run screaming from the building, but usually the next week, it's not so bad. The only…
  • >Rockie has a great idea with pulling the name out of a hat. Just be >careful not to name him 'Medium' or 'One Size'. Don't you know your >folks will skin you alive when they find out you got the grandchild's >name off a chat boar…
  • Mo: I agree. I just can't get past the "Otis the Drunk" image (no matter how lovable). Why don't you and hubby put all your favorite names in a hat - you draw one and he draws one and that's the kid's name. (See if you can keep Otis out of the h…
  • I go on line and use giftcertificates.com. That way employees get to choose what they want from a whole bunch of vendors. I've found in the past that no matter what you choose, it's not what this one or that one wants.
  • Yahoo: Actually it was the exterminator that told us this is the way the mouse would die. I guess it depends on whether they get caught feet first or face first. In fact, we used one of these and my husband found the mouse on its side strugglin…
  • You can get the traps that catch the critters live and then set them free. I hate the sticky traps that suffocate the mice (even though I can't stand them in my house). Any poison for the mouse will also be a poison to your animals. Beagle: Wha…
  • Having been in the middle of Hurricane Hugo in 1989 which was a Category 4 or 5 depending on where it hit, I can tell you first hand there is nothing funny or exciting about being in the middle of a "cane". I have to shake my head at these folks th…
  • No, actually it said "In George We Trust".
  • Maybe we need a whole new thread called "For the Truly Wretched" or "Go There at Your Own Risk". All us bad boys and girls can freely post without guilt.
  • Thanks for the info. I feel much better now!
  • How the heck did I get to be Rockie MA when I am really Rockie SC. I guess that hurricane was stronger than we thought!
  • Okay...we have an employee named Wing Wang. Swear to God! Our local newspaper used to publish births of babies and some of them were a hoot! I remember one set of twins named O'rangejello and L'emonjello. Again, I AM not making this up! A friend…
  • Very sad. I didn't feel Johnny Cash was long for this world as he recently lost his reason for living - his wife and coupled with his poor health, it was not a surprise. But John Ritter! Could not hardly believe it. From working at a cardiology…
  • Just got around to reading some of these posts from yesterday. I swear, Don, you know how to brighten up a day. This is one of the funniest things (but true) that I have ever read.
  • Yes, obsessive-compulsive is also my middle name. I recognize these symptoms well. I try to keep it in hand...I have learned over the past few years to try to simplify and not retain clutter because that's one thing that makes me obsess! I discard …
  • Don...as usual your visuals are RIGHT ON! Keep 'em coming and damn be he (or her) who first cries "Hold, enough!"
  • Deez; Try to remember where you read this. I want to send a copy to my boss!
    in I'm tired! Comment by Rockie August 2003

  • 1910 Fruitgum Company!
  • Oh....and another thing....as far as bad songs, you would have to put Muskrat Love right up there and Yummy,Yummy, Yummy...I Got Love In My Tummy!
  • I never heard of this song being a Vietnam anthem ... there is a McArthur Park in California and I believe that's what the song is referring to basically...but the lyrics are reminicent of an LSD power trip. I agree with Beagle about Richard Harris…
  • I don't see how you could possibly work 55 hours a week and keep up the grueling schedule that law school would dictate. Just getting to the classes would be hectic enough - can't imagine where you would find the time to study and do research. It …
  • Don is correct about there not being fun at work anymore. I remember when I worked at the bank, I worked with a bunch of crazy people. 40th birthdays were really fodder for the insane. One year we put a coffin (yes, a real one) in one of our cowo…

  • >Yes, but did he flush??? Better yet...did he put the seat down?
  • Great post. You get a lot of the same type stuff in "Southernese Speak" such as "mash that there brake pedal", "bald peanuts", fixin'to, reckon so. A good one. Initiate. "I took my sister with me to eat. She ate two double cheese burgers, initia…
  • Send me the name of your inexpensive cleaners. I spent five hours cleaning my house this weekend and it ain't fun!
  • It was great to read all of these postings. I think we are ALL really good people.
  • I believe my grandmother shaped my attitudes more than anything. My grandparents lived in a small house in back of our property, so I had a lot of contact with her in my life. She was a very nurturing and giving individual. She died much too youn…
