Normally you'd find him in a garden or lanscaping fertilizing the plants around him, but his job is much more important in my cube. He promotes interesting conversation, independent thought and scares dimwitted management away from my workspace."

Lovely!

Maybe we will imitate the Africans soon?

They put their heads under cows urinating to change their hair color from black to RED. The cow urine dies their hair. WOWO - maybe that could be a new product line and let Obama and tribe get back to their African roots!
