  • In the interest of keeping this thread going, I wonder if anyone out there has an opinion on how the "TomKat", "TomKitten" debacle will end. Now that Dr. Cruise has decreed that Katie Holmes will hereafter be known as "Kate" because that is a more …
  • I'm willing to be the 299th. Keep those cards and letters coming in! Linda
  • Good idea, but do you think anyone would be the 299th? Linda
  • Surely MLS will recognize this for what it is: a good natured contest to test the ingenuity of the forumites. The boss just took his admin. assistant to lunch for admin. assistant day, and invited several members of staff to go along. Result: a …
  • Uh-oh. Looks like the end is near. Linda
  • Good morning, everyone. It is just before 8:00 am, my favorite time of the day. In about 5 minutes the supervisors will start coming in with problems. Time to take a sip of coffee and gather my inner resources. Linda
  • No, I'd be on Letterman if that happened! Linda
  • Gotta meet the challenge of keeping this thread going, so I'll ask a question I've been wondering about. How does my dog and cat know to look me in the eye? Why don't they look at the mouth where the sound comes from, or the hand where the food co…
  • Y'all is probably the most identifiable Southern Speak. There are different nuances to using y'all. "Y'all better turn off that TV and go to bed!" is southern speak for "If I have to get up out of this recliner and come in there, someboy's gonna g…

  • Yes, I had a hugger once. Now I stick my hand out as soon as the interview is over and keep enough distance to discourage hugging. Linda
  • Quick thinking! Linda
  • I can top it, but not here, because if you mess up it is pretty obscene. Linda
  • Why is't "phonics" spelled "fonix"?

  • I was interviewing a young lady when her cell phone rang. She took the call, and the conversation went like this: "Hey, what's up?...I'm interviewing for a job...I don't know what the name of the company is......No, I don't know what they do.....t…
  • On the seventh day of Christmas I'm so afraid I'll see/A new IRS ruling on employees. Merry Christmas to all!
  • One of our HMO's give them free at their clinic. We can get the local hospital to send out someone to give them for $10 per employee. Linda

  • I would tell the organization that there must have been a miscommunication. Only one ticket was being reserved - for $125. Then I would tell the friend that there had been a mistake make, that the organization had received incorrect information. …
  • I think Rudy Giuliani would be a good choice for head of FEMA. His track record was established on 9/11. Linda
  • I believe a Brazilian is the number of undergarments Victoria's Secret sold last year. Linda
  • You've hit the nail on the head, SMace! Let the finger-pointers get down from their soap boxes and lend a hand! Linda
  • We have a 7 man crew in Houma, LA (electric distribution) and they start at 5:30 am and work till 9:30 pm. They have gotten a wonderful reception from the folks there. Everytime they drive by people give them "thumbs up" and applause. They are ge…

  • Once again, our crews are making plans to travel to the affected areas if requested. I certainly add my prayers for the safety of everyone in Katrina's path. Linda

  • In Leslie's defense, This is so true about cats. I have a cat and a dog and love them both dearly, but cats have their own world which they reluctantly allow us to inhabit. Linda
  • Our ee in Iraq sends similar letters and pictures via email. He is a medic and spends his free time treating the local adults and children. They, too, hand out toys and he said for most of the kids it was the first toy they had ever seen. The pict…
  • Welcome back! Sounds like time well spent. I am more than a little envious of all your travels and adventures. Good luck with Will Rogers. Linda

  • Groan. Linda

  • My late brother-in-law had his ashes dropped from a plane over the company he presided over for 30+ years. Not to sound too irreverent, but I don't really relish the idea of someone's ashes drifting down on me. If there were those who went outside…

  • I've heard this, but the cast were Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea. Linda
  • Add "battle for the boss's parking slot", and you'd pretty much have us nailed. Linda
  • HRCalico: He's probably getting stapled to the wall (see shansan's post). Linda
