Where's bottlecap?

My dear, sweet mom just sent me this one.... Something you think about all the time! Don't miss this eventful day! Slap Your Co-Worker Day is coming!! Tomorrow is the official Slap Your Irritating Co-workers Holiday: Do you have a co-worker who talks nonstop about nothing, working your last nerve with tedious and boring details that you don't care about? Do you have a co-worker who ALWAYS screws up stuff creating MORE work for you? Do you have a co-worker who kisses so much booty; you can look in their mouth and see what your boss had for lunch? Do you have a co-worker who is SOOO obnoxious, when he/she enters a room, everyone else clears it? Well, on behalf of Ike Turner, I am so very very glad to officially announce tomorrow as SLAP YOUR IRRITATING CO-WORKER DAY! There are the rules you must follow: * You can only slap one person per hour - no more. * You can slap the same person again if they irritate you again in the same day. * You are allowed to hold someone down as other co-workers take their turns slapping the irritant. * No weapons are allowed...other than going upside somebody's head with a stapler or a hole-puncher. * If questioned by a supervisor [or police, if the supervisor is the irritant], you are allowed to LIE, LIE, LIE! Now, study the rules, break out your list of folks that you want to slap the living day lights out of and get to slapping.....and have a great day!

I was just going to ask if anyone else was having trouble with it. Great story, muski. I hope they take your expert advice & make the trek to NYC!

Ah yes, the "old people" issue! Heh - I've heard that one before, too. I'm so glad that you have someplace like that nearby. I really hope a visit will ease her mind, get rid of the pre-conceived notions and turn out to be a good fit for her.

Probably something you've already looked into if it would be fitting, but I'll put it out here anyway - are there any programs for seniors in the area that maybe have classes, like at a church or YMCA? Whether it's crafts, a book club, or a modified exercise group where she could be active & socialize? My mom is just getting involved with the Y in her area and they have all kinds of senior groups. :F_05BL17blowkiss:

I agree with the others - great recap ldyj!

I wonder if Spamalot gets spammier on April Fools day? I wonder if the Knights Who Say Ni will find a way to work the Raleigh Chronicle piece into the show? I wonder if I should sign off and try to get some actual work done?

What about Raleigh the dog??? Is she going to have an identity crisis? :o YUMMY banner indeed, cha cha!

That is hillarious!! :lmaosmiley-1:

Hmmmmmm..... right hand side facing the stage, huh? I do believe seat 101 fits that description.... Good position for the stage door, you say? Wonder who I might see there..... Maybe this guy? Or this guy? Or him? Or perhaps even this?

So mezz center, row A, on one of the aisles should be good, right?

No problem with the humor, Play!

My sleep deprived, and at the moment Spama-trip-centric, brain can't handle the word filters today.

That's the only one so far, saltwaterdog. Maybe we'll get another one this week! Better get ready, just in case..... Regarding spoilers, I did listen to the first two YouTube links, but just once. I listened to anything & everything for ATDW! Another one here who burned the "sneak peek" snippets to CD and listened to them everywhere!

Whew!!! Just getting to your destinations sounds like an adventure in & of itself, ausdon! Can't wait to meet up with you on the 17th! Safe travels. :F_05BL17blowkiss:

Some of those are too funny, Gibby!

Aww, muski! I remember giggling maniacally at the hip shakes! God love him. Paula kept getting after him to move and he.... I just love Clay Aiken!

I agree, KAndre. Simon's intense dislike of Grease just didn't make sense otherwise. It's not like that's a singer's song, but it was a good perfromance.

Hee! From that blurb about the upcoming interview: Thread title? ETA: I see jmh already beat me to it!

May you have safe - and on time! - travels today, ldyj! :F_05BL17blowkiss: It's Monday. Again.

Why women should not take men shopping against their will. ******************************************************************************** After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Wal-Mart. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunate, my wife is like most women - - she loved to browse. Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Wal-Mart. Dear Mrs. Samsel, Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr. Samsel are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras. 1 June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking. 2 July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals 3 July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom. 4 July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, "Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away." 5 August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&M's on lay-away. 6 August 14: Moved a "CAUTION - WET FLOOR" sign to a carpeted area. 7 August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department. 8 August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, "Why can't you people just leave me alone?" 9 September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the "Mission Impossible" theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his "Madonna look" by using different sizes of funnels. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled "PICK ME! PICK ME!" 14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed "OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!" And last, but not least 15. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, "Hey! There's no toilet paper in here!"

I can't sleep! It's like the ridiculously strong coffee I made this morning had a delayed effect. Thanks for the reviews CG & muski! Anyhoo, while I'm up surfing the boards here's one explanation about the Playbill OMWH ad/no ad mystery from CantGoADayWithoutClay at CH:

This is sooooooo CUTE, cha cha! Will somebody please make me clean? I have done some cleaning today, but I keep getting side-tracked.....

Ok, was anyone else having a love affair with the smattering of freckles under those beautiful green eyes? GAH! I wanna hear that "whole other story...." from Mr. Aiken about the light coming from his crotch! The ornery look on his face as they cut away from him had me :lmaosmiley-1: I agree about Carmen & Trenyce. I don't remember it seeming so skewed at that time, but it definitely shows now.

Along with this....
