More lists – McSweeneys
There’s no yelling
So Sarah and I are out to lunch today, we work in the same building and get lunch occasionally (and she calls with computer problems occasionally). We’re at Subway, where I usually don’t go, if it were a place I usually go, I’d know what I wanted before we even got there. So were in line chatting while I’m trying to figure out what to get and the subway lady (SL) is waiting for us. After we order and the SL is making our subs we had something we were talking/disagreeing/bantering about, so I said to the SL, “So… How long do you think we’ve been going out?” Sarah managed to keep a straight face and we proceeded to pressured her into giving an answer. Her answer was something like, “Not very long, since there wasn’t any yelling”. But she never asked us how long, which was good since we would have had to lie or fess up that we aren’t dating.
That brought a smile to my face multiple times today, “since there wasn’t any yelling”…
Stupid phones…
It’s amazing how great your day can be going and one stupid phone conversation can ruin it….
My Weather Machine Works!!!!
Bwah-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha!!! I told them I could do it and no one believed me! It’s almost May and I’m making snow, blizzard like winds and it actually sticking to the ground!
April Showers bring…
It’s snowing. You read that right, this isn’t an old post, it’s April 23rd and it’s been wet, windy and snowy all day. No accumulation, yet…
Yes, I said yet, they are predicting 4 to 7 inches of accumulation tonight! There is actually a storm warning from 10AM today until 6PM tomorrow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a warning that long (32 hours) before.
Yahoo 360° – I got it, you need it?
I finally got a Yahoo 360° invite. Here’s why you care, I’ve got invites to give out already. Leave a post in the comments (with your e-mail) and I’ll send you an invite. In case you didn’t know it’s a new on-line community, photo sharing, blog and more. What’s interesting is you can make certain kinds of info available only to friends or friends of friends or everyone.
Thanks to Bane for getting me an account!
I also still have gMail accounts to give out…
Imagine This Hypothetical Situation…
Imagine you and your co-workers are allowed to choose a new person to be in charge of your huge corporation (or even a huge non-profit). The last person in charge, while highly respected and loved, was ill for months before they passed away keeping your organization in all sorts of turmoil and doubt during all that time. Before you even start narrowing the list down, how many of you think you would choose a person who is ten to fifteen years past retirement age?
