k, back....so how is everyone?

 
Hi,
you really don't want to know, do you?  that's just a courtesy type question.  it's kind of like when you greet people in the store, in church, even at work and they say "how's it going" and you say "fine, just fine."  and you're actually lying through your teeth because the bills are piling up, the car has broken down, your washing machine is on the fritz so you have to go to the laundry mat to wash your clothes, your oven is broken and always burns your dinner, your foundation on your house is shifting so your doors don't close all the way and you have cracks in the dry wall, all of your children need money to pay their rent...
 
I'm fine, just fine.  

The best way to get them to stop asking the trite and shallow question is to give them the real answer!

Maybe something like "I was doing great until you reminded me of my miserable forum life."?

"How ya doing??"

"Ohhhh....  My head hurts, the dog got hit by a car, my wife is filing for divorce, we're losing the house and I still can't find a job, and..."

"Hey, ok!  Great!  Talk to ya later!"

You know them too?

How ya doing?

My last "normal" corporate job ended May 9th, 2003...

 
A young Aussie lad moved to London and went to Harrods looking for a job. The manager asked, "Do you have any sales experience?"

The young man answered, "Yeah, I was a salesman back home."

The manager liked the Aussie so he gave him the job. His first day on the job was challenging and busy, but he got through it.

After the store was locked up, the manager came down and asked "OK, so how many sales did you make today?"

The Aussie said "One."

The manager groaned and continued "Just one? Our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day. How much was the sale for?"

"£101 237.64" The Aussie replied.

The manager choked and exclaimed £101 237.64? What the hell did you sell him?"

"Well, first I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium fish hook, and then, I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down at the coast, so I told him he would need a boat, so we went down to the boat department and I sold him that twin-engined Power Cat. Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to car sales and I sold him the 4 x 4 Suzuki".

The manager, incredulous, said "You mean to tell me....a guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a boat and 4x4?".

"No no no......he came in here to buy a box of tampons for his wife and I said........."Well, since your weekend's ****ed, you might as well go fishing!"

Happy Mournday to you, Daryl.  So, far so good.  But I'm running late.  I'll have to work on the rhyme later.

I'm with you on the caffeine.....about to go get a 2nd & final cup for the day. Of course, I seem to be most productive in the FSF when I'm at work in the office.

WAKE UP KIDDIES
 

Friday night I was surfing the cable box and came across a show called "Live Band". Several bands I never heard of playing on a stage somewhere in Brooklyn, NYC.
They were obviously serious about their music, but, sorry, I laughed a little bit. Whoever was doing the mixing apparently didn't know what they were doing.
Some of the lead vocals were buried way back in the mix and other parts were way too loud.
And the bands all seemed to be trying to be somebody else, mostly bands from the 1980s.
Looking forward to seeing it this week, if I can find it again.

Hard luck mate. I'm not superstitous so I don't believe in any of that Friday 13th stuff, but I've had teamates who have certain (what I'd call silly) rituals they'd do before a cricket match.....(putting on the left sock first etc...). 
Proper mental and physical preparation (+ talent of course) were emphasized to me by my coaches/parents and that's what helped tremendously.
 
When's your next game?

Daryl, Daryl why won't you sing us a carol?  Are you feral?  In peril?  Or is your rhyming book sterile?

Wow...

Last night on stage at the strip club was the ugliest lap-dancer I've ever seen.

She swung inelegantly around her pole toward me and said "Hey Handsome, what would you like me to take off first?"

I said "My glasses."

Feminists say that tomorrow will be 'The Age Of Woman'.






Sorry to break it to you, but there's already been an Iron Age.

I failed my driving test today.

The examiner asked me to describe a typical countryside road sign....

Apparently, "Pick your own Strawberries" was not a good answer.

I was sat there this morning wondering why the sun rises in the east....




Then it dawned on me.

LOL Steve!!
