TGIF! Earlier this week I thought I'd want to skip the OFST due to the disaster in Nawlins. But after reading lefties actually blame Katrina on Bush, blame the resulting flooding on Bush and then blame the rioting on Bush, I need to unwind in a big way. So, without further ado:
Not silly, but...just, awww...
I'm a better architect than I am a typist.
Happy Anniversary!
Let's see if we can do another year without getting zotted!

Mensa's New Words for 2005
The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational once again asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing of one letter, and supply a new definition.
Here are the 2005 winners:
1. Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period.

4. Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.
5. Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near future.
6. Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
7. Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.
8. Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.

10. Hipatitis: Terminal coolness.
11. Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)
[An r-q-tek86 favorite]
12. Karmageddon: It's like, when everybody is sending off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's like, a serious bummer.
13. Decafalon (n.): The grueling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you.
14. Glibido: All talk and no action.
15. Dopeler effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.
16. Arachnoleptic fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you've accidentally walked through a spider web.
17. Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.
18. Caterpallor (n.): The color you turn after finding half a worm in the fruit you're eating.

Happy to see you guys....and nothing major to report, other than I'm getting DSL today!
I've always said, if you think humanity is basically good, you haven't had kids.
Shalom.

"Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye."
4) To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and
grimace.
5) When someone hands you a piece of paper, finger it, and whisper huskily,
"Mmmmmmm, that feels soooooo good!".
6) Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say,

that, I don't want to have to repeat it".
3) Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your voice).
4) Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle
(there must be a 'non-player within sight).
5) Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

7) In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and
mutter, "Shut up, damn it, all of you just shut up!".
8) At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, "As God as my
witness, I'll never go hungry again".
9) In a colleague's diary, write in 10am: "See how I look in tights".(Extra
