1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven’t eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later, they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

5. This is an unusual paragraph. I’m curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

No body loves you like your mama loves you…but who’s lovin’ your mama? I am… (Quicktime needed)

…the best thing that could happen to me. A blank slate. Possibly with multiple authors. How cool could this turn out to be?

But I’ve had to go around correcting all the foulups that people have done.

Why is there never time to do things right, but there’s always time to do things over? Jeeebus!

Anyway, I plan on getting out of here early today — putting in over 50 hours this week already has kinda burned me out.

Catcha on the flip.

Sorry, but if you’re in a position of authority, you can’t just blow it off and not listen when people come to you with problems. They will go over your head (and believe it or not, there IS someone higher than you) and if enough people do it, guess what? It’s YOUR butt that’s out and on the street.

They pay your salary. If they have issues, you best at least LISTEN to them, even if there’s nothing that you can do.

Otherwise, hit the door. You’re not living up to what is expected of you.

I was talking to someone today whose boss seems to have lost all sense of reality.

Not only has he gone and blown the rest of the money that is supposed to keep his company running until the beginning of the next fiscal year, but he’s also over committed his company, to the tune of about $125,000. That’s not pocket change.

Where is the fiscal responsibility? Where is the accountabilty? After all, if I’m one PENNY overdrawn, you can best bet the bank is hitting me with fees and with legal action. But I guess companies are different. At least in my mind, there’s a big difference between a penny and 12500000 of them.

Of course, if I were in a position of power, you can bet that if I overspent my budget by 125,000, I’d be looking for another job. Especially if I made empty promises that I could not deliver on.

(And before you ask if that 125K is out of 11 million or 1 million, know that it’s actually from a budget of about $950,000.)

Yet, I’d lay dollars to donuts that this “supervisor” will end up with a hefty bonus, while his employees are left scrambling for crumbs to keep the company afloat.

What IS the world coming to?

Guess some people need to be told that they aren’t the “B” they think themselves to be. From what I’m reading (now that the domain issue seems to be settled … I ain’t buyin’ it, but he’s letting me use the space for free, so beggers ain’t gonna be choosers), there are some real slackers out in the work force.

Of course, there are slackers everywhere. But to be happy when things AREN’T happening? Plus you’re in a growth industry?

Guess I just don’t understand.

Loud mouthed bastard decided to spout off at the big cheese today. Not the wisest thing to do…in fact, it got a knot yanked in his ass. He couldn’t blame it on Tourette’s, he has this problem of saying whatever is on his mind any time he opens his mouth. Think Sophia from the Golden Girls, but without the cuteness, the innocence, or the stroke. The coarse, vile venom that spews forth from his disgusting pie hole will one day cost him his job.

Then he can ask you if you’d like some freakin’ fries with your wormburger.
