so…I don’t think St. Patrick was all about productivity considering that his holiday is celebrated (at least by me) with a nice plate of corned beef, cabbage, carrots, potatoes and turnips, all washed down with a couple of pints of Smithwick’s Irish Ale.

There was at least one game played between Wendy and Druzba: an 8-0 roll in the hay that left the Dr. looking for a shot of penicillin.

so…I’ve been noticing a trend in advertising, and it bugs me: the dumbing down of potentials.
Ok, so that doesn’t sound like much, or anything, actually, so here’s a few examples:
There’s a new campaign for Glade Plug-ins where they’re pushing this new create-a-scent line (which Erika points out have been an option for a long time, […]

Dinosaur Jr. - How’d You Pin That One On Me
Eddie from Ohio - The Moons of Jupiter
R.E.M. - Nightswimming
Talking Heads - Crosseyed And Painless
The Beatles - I’ve Got a Feeling

so…I work with a few people that might border on being germ-phobic. You know the type: they avoid using the door handles anywhere, not just in the bathrooms…
well, there is this one guy that takes it to an extreme. He pulls his sleeve over his hand to punch the keypad to get into the office. […]

so…here’s today’s Friday Random Ten witha twist: a lyric from each song.
1. “Sweet Home Chicago” - Robert Johnson
Friend-boy, she trick you one time, she sure gonna do it again
2. “I Am One” - Smashing Pumpkins

“What he did, he sent two […]

so…when we last left our young twodolla ho she had be used and abused…and last night was no different!
Actually, the games last night were pretty close and even…with maybe one exception: I won, again, twice.
Assisted fielding must go, as shown in game 4.

McDonald’s shifting focus away from fries
It seems that McD’s is going to throw its weight around and offer some healthy alternatives…
‘’We will use our size and strength to set an example,” said chief executive Jim Skinner.
Keep this quote in mind the next time someone sues them for contributing to obesity and they say that they’re […]

so…a coworker of mine just came up to me to ask if I knew where my boss was…I guess it was an honest question, I mean, his office is right outside of my cube, but it was all I could do to not say: “no, last time I saw him was right after I wiped […]
