YES! Even though it’s not April yet, I think this needs to appear at the office… I’d probably get in trouble with any of the others.

“When we told people were going to do this, someone said ‘Whenever I click the order button on Amazon, I always imagine a chorus of happy, singing Oompa-Loompas riding around on Segways and shipping my stuff.’ Well…no. It’s not exactly like that.”

IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!!!!!!
Last year’s first “major” snowfall brought my link to an old favorite about people’s craving for French Toast when the storm of the century arrives every year. This morning I decided to make chili, so off to Wegman’s I went with the other idiots to stock up, though on decidedly different materials. This year, my mom mentioned her favorite weather guy online put on...

Best Man Rigs Newlyweds' Bed To Tweet During Sex.... →
Here’s something new for your RSS feed: “When a man in the UK was asked to be the best man at his friend’s wedding, he was touched. So touched, that he promised not to pull any pranks before or during the wedding. After the wedding though, that’s another story. This man, who is choosing to stay anonymous, has set up this Twitter account for the sole purpose of...

langer: goosebumpmusic: It’s more change than you could’ve expected from McCain or Hillary, my friend. Count your blessings. Sorry, not buying it. I’m tired of these specious and puerile cliches, this talk of how “things could be worse” or “the perfect is the enemy of the good”. If we truly believe that only the perfect can be perfect then we delude ourselves into letting just about...

So here we are.
langer: Two years ago the prohibitive front-runner for the Democratic nomination presented a healthcare proposal mandating universal coverage. Everyone would have healthcare. Those who could not afford it would receive government assistance to ensure they could. That prohibitive front-runner lost to Barack Obama, who throughout his time as both a senator and a presidential candidate wavered...

My open letter to President Obama
Today I was astonished to get the following email. Astonished not because of the sender, or even the topic. I was astonished because of the tone: Now since a reply will not go through (I even tried - having the response returned to me by their Spam Firewall) I submit my reply to all of you: Dear President Obama (or who ever might read this, if it’s even read), We will not back down? Do...

The President's in Town →
That’s why it took me 10 minutes to get home from the grocery store in the middle of the day on my day off. It usually takes 3 minutes. Turns out he left his speech (10 mins from my home) at the same time I left Wegman’s. He blocked traffic for me. :) Err… with me in it. :(
