A co-worker once switched his non-functioning keyboard with the ME's late one night. Try it yourself, you might feel better.

If you're still taking signatures, here's mine. A no-brainer if there ever was one.

I have thought about the NIAML.

Anyone else play this game? I can't beat my previous best time and I'm wondering if it's because I suck or if it's because it's a pretty tough time to beat. At the beginner level, my best is 19 seconds; at intermediate it's 44; and expert is 123. How is everyone else doing?

I agree wholeheartedly with the "miss a deadline, don't pass the class" idea. I am also in favor of "spell a name wrong, fail the assignment."

Heineken, that is hysterical.

No idea what the pay is. And no, it will never stop getting kicked all over eastern Connecticut by The Day. Management overhaul doesn't appear to have done the trick. I would call it a stepping stone paper at best, but make it a quick step.

Dumb and Dumber. Saw it three times in the theater. On the same day. And I haven't stopped watching it since.

I'm not one to pat myself on the back, but I have made one of the greatest purchases of all time. Recently got some gift cards to Barnes and Noble, totalling just about $100. Headed to bn.com where I saw they were offering buy 2 DVDs, get a third free. Checked the prices on 24. When all was...

While running his hands along his waist, a la some world champion fighter, a buddy of mine once asked a girl: "You want a shot at the title?" Not really sure what he was getting at but it was funny as hell. And he left with her. Another one I was SHOCKED to see work: "So, what you do say you...
