[Just another Joe]

So there I was at thirty thousand feet when...

Ehhhh?

[Ramius]

Perfect... :-)

[Ramius]

Just standard bar conversation starter... goes with the "Geez... you wouldn't believe what happened to be me... no really..."

Little quiet in here tonight. Where's all the babes?

[Just another Joe]

I don't know where they all are. We had a couple cruise in and out earlier but nada since then.

[Just another Joe]

Here's a little post starter joke you can use.

Heaven was getting a bit crowded, so Peter began giving quizzes to see who should get in. A
man ascended to heaven, and came to the gates. "Who was the first man?" asked Peter.
"Adam."
"That's correct. Enter." Soon another man came along.
"Where did Adam and Eve live?"
"Eden."
That's correct. Enter." Then Mother Theresa came along.
"Ooh, I'll have to give you a hard one. What did Eve say when she met Adam for the first
time?"
"Mmm, that IS a hard one."
"Enter."

[Focault's Pendulum]

You folks realize that I've only posted a little less than half the years threads, don't you. We need to have a little chatter going on here so they don't all run together.

Well...you have my apologies Joe..I thought you were doing a Blog.

[Just another Joe]

I thought you were doing a Blog.

I wouldn't do that on Jim's site. I'd have to get my own.
Besides that, it's sorta like gymnastics, I just don't blog that well.

Sorry about that.....I meant I needed a Blog on the Rocks.

[Just another Joe]

I meant I needed a Blog on the Rocks.

OK, that's a new one on me.
How do you make one?

[netmilsmom]

Netmilsdad is here with me tonight because he got this in his inbox today.

Virus Alert!
There is a new virus called "work". If you receive "work" from your colleagues, your boss, via e-mail or any one else, do not touch "work" under any circumstances. This virus wipes out your private life completely.
If you should happen to come in contact with this virus, put on your jacket and take two good friends and go straight to the nearest bar.
Order three drinks and after repeating 14 times, you will find that "work" has been completely deleted from your brain.
Forward this virus warning immediately to at least 5 friends.
Should you realize that you do not have 5 friends, this means that you are already infected by this virus and "work" already controls your whole life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The poor darling found out that he doesn't have 5 friends and therefore is already infected. I told him I would intoduce him to some people here.
Joe, I'm having oral surgery on Friday so let me buy you a drink, ok??

[Just another Joe]

Well howdy, Netmilsdad. What can I get you?
Sorry, netmilsmom, I'm on painkillers tonight so no drinking. But I will let you buy me a nice Macanudo Robust.
It's been a while since I had a good cigar.

[Focault's Pendulum]

I was hoping you would know.

.....hmmmm.....mebbe you can get a contest up to mix the best Blog....you could even offer prizes.....or sumpin'

[Just another Joe]

Maybe I can work something out next week.
It could end up similar to francisandbean's muck-a-luck.

[Ramius]

Blog on the Rocks.

Sounds like something they only know how to make in San Jose, or maybe Palo Alto.

[Ramius]

"Mmm, that IS a hard one."

Sorry, but I already *have* a stiff drink. Now I need the antidote... :-)

[Ramius]

There is a new virus called "work".

The *truly* sick thing is that I'm actually sitting in a bar *right now* with the laptop and wireless. Just had a non-virtual double turkey and redhook. Yes, I am still working, thanks to the miracle of VPN.

[sigh] I do some of my best work here.

Now I think I'm going to try the new Redhook SunRye Ale. Looks refreshing. Geez... I love my job. :-P

[Ramius]

What ever happened to francisandbeans? Haven't seen him(?) around for quite a while...

[humblegunner]

We need to have a little chatter going on here so they don't all run together.

Well if someone would come along and piss me off,
I'd surely have loads to say them. I'm always in agreement mostly with
the issues RE tobacco here....
I bet I have monkeypox and SARS from smoking now...
