Oh no!! Too Late!!! It's Crash and Burn day at the office, aaarrrrrrrgghhhhhhh!!!

Whoa! Look at him fly? What to you do at your office?

I bet your boss is a real drill instructor, huh?

[GodBlessUSA]

Hi Lady Jag!:)

That was a double take when I saw that picture on my ping. LOL!!! Thanks :) Good thing, no giant anaconda and I have no friend name Jim nearby. No urge to sell insurance. Although, I could take to a strange compulsion to shoot things with tranquilizer darts! ;)

[HiJinx]

OMG!! I've watched these guys perform their stunts before...they're fantastic!

Yeah, my boss is a rusty crusty senior NonComm with a Type A-Plus personality. His guidance to us, based on the customer's last e-mail:

"Provide briefing scripts for these slides that they created without our input and no, we can't change them, and no, they don't know for sure what they mean, and yes, they're serious, they do want the scripts done in 90 minutes."

[Lady Jag]

Hi! I like this day, too, but it could get me into real trouble!

[GodBlessUSA]

Oh No! Just reading the title to that song, puts it in constant play in my head. :)

[GodBlessUSA]

Another double take, ROTFLMBO!!

Good morning, tom! Good morning, Patriotic Pattie!

[Lady Jag]

{{{{EGC!!!}}} I feel a little stuffy. How's it with you?

[Lady Jag]

They make great pets but I bet they can chew through a leg!

[Lady Jag]

That was a double take when I saw that picture on my ping

Look like someone familiar to you?

[E.G.C.]

WEll, we're awaiting the Wednesday update of virus definitions from norton Anti-Virus.

Been sleeping like a log the last couple of days with the break from severe weather but there's some more in the forecast for this weekend.

[Lady Jag]

The jumper looks like an actor who played a ditzy teacher on a sitcom or in a reurring role somewhere. That's all I can think of when I see that photo, "this klutzy guy has no idea what he's doing!"

From the way you describe Crusty, I think you may have some idea about what would straighten him out. I have two ideas.

[Kathy in Alaska]

But I need to go to the beach with you. I sent my chair ahead. d:o(

[Lady Jag]

How about, "This just in from the New York Times!"

[GodBlessUSA]

LOL! That would have been perfect. I have sent it.:) I just wrote Oh, NO! in the subject.

[Kathy in Alaska]

But her tastes right now are a little high for my income.

LOL! Aw the fun of dreaming. She's probably having a ball.
