Post-vacation Blues
by Steve West on August 20, 2008

Without going into great detail, my co-workers are muddle-brained knuckleheads that make the Keystone Kops look like a Mensa meeting. Federal sanctions are not that far-fetched. Changes will be made soon.
My new boss looked at me and my sunburn and asked if I had gone to the beach. I explained that I got it at Hershey Park and she acted surprised. "You got burned at an amusement park?" Lady, I get burned just getting my morning paper.
Where's my coffee and Advil? Ahhh, skip the coffee and make that Vicodin.

Me and Al Bundy

First Post
Rather than clog the TC Board with things that mostly interest me exclusively, this seemed a more appropriate avenue. I'll probably post something nearly every day as I'm online daily just surfin' & lookin' for weird stuff. For example, how else would I have ever known of these products if I hadn't seen them using "strange" in a search string? Go »
