From Atlas Farted:
The engineer shrugged. "Who is Mike Hunt?"
"He means," said the fireman, "don't ask questions nobody can answer."

Even if I am wearing a tank-top, I still find myself applying deoderant as if it were a Tee-shirt on a daily basis.

Why is it that the people who drive around and around a parking lot looking for the closest parking spot, are generally the people who need the walk the worst?

Of all the reactions people have to violent death, erotic excitement is the one I understand least. I am really glad I am transferring out from under my supervisor.

Dang - My observation skills are slipping. I didn't spot it :lol: I thought I could create a wee bit of excitement by broadcasting a 10-89 :twisted:

The day of man's set doom is come,
The altars break, the idols fall;
The shattered oracles are dumb
And utter stillness ruleth all.

Across the great world's silent girth
The grass-grown cities rot and rust:
Still are the rulers of the earth---
Men and their worth sink back to dust.

Man fades without a trace to tell;
Where seas roar on the primal plain.
The mindless, living, single cell
Begins the long, slow climb again.


And how's YOUR Monday?

I had a random thought that was all gushy and mushy and flowery
and stuff, but after catching up on this thread I forgot what it was.

However, whatever that random thought was, it has left me
all a-glow, feeling fuzzy, goose-bumpy and happy inside. Yay! :P

This morning in this forum, I read 8 threads that were potentially useful, and skipped four that just seemed painful, depressing and ugly.
