And I get a pile of projects, all of which have to be done today. Ugh…don’t expect much blogging until my lunch break — if I get one.
Month: May 2003
My birthday’s on Wednesday
So 1) I won’t be posting much between now and Friday, 2) You only have a couple days to donate and send me some cash so I can buy goodies I want ;).
I will try to post in the next few days, but don’t hold me to it.
Raise money for the Chubby Jedi
A few days ago, I posted that the Chubby Jedi had been identified. Now, there’s a fund raising effort that has been started to give the kid some cash for entertaining us all. The effort and the kid is now receiving national attention from all sorts of places (though the NYT’s source for the image on the story is “http://graphics7.nytimes.com/images/2003/05/19/business/19DORK.jpg” — real professional guys).
Man does 3,669 push-ups in one hour
One word: Ouch. That’s 1.019 push-ups per second.
Tales from the Parts Counter
I just spent a good chunk of my lunch reading this. This guys works at an Autozone, and has documented all his stupid customer experiences. Some of them are downright scary. But all are damn funny. Link from BBspot.
This week’s most buried headline
This could be a real stinker this week for the Pentagon. Apparently over $1 trillion are missing as well as “dozens of tanks, missiles and planes.” Full Story.
I’ve got a question: How do you lose $1 trillion dollars? Hell, give me a million, and I’ll hold on to it for you.
UC Berkeley professor has studied masturbation for a decade
Sure, pal. “Studied” it. Basically, all he wanted was an excuse to wank off on company time use research money for it (joking). Full Story.
Woman has seven pink Caddys from peddling Mary Kay stuff
If you didn’t know, if you sell a bunch of Mary Kay cosmetics (and it’s a lot) you’ll get a pink Cadillac (yes, a working, functional car). This lady’s so good at it, she has seven. Link from Obscure Store.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
The answer depends on who you ask…
George Bush’s Answer:
We don’t really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either with us or it is against us. There is no middle ground here.
Ralph Nader’s Answer:
The chicken’s habitat on the original side of the road had been pollutedby unchecked industrialist greed. The chicken did not reach the unspoiled habitat on other side of the road because it was crushed by the wheels of a gas-guzzling SUV.
Pat Buchanan’s Answer:
To steal a job from a decent, hard-working American.
Funny stuff. Thanks to Ken for the link.
