From WKRP in Cincinnati:
See the whole episode here. It’s worth the 24 minutes.
My first alarm goes off at around 4:30, the second one starts going off around 5, and I usually get up by around 5:10.
This morning, as the first alarm went off, my mind translated the *HONK, HONK, HONK, HONK* of my alarm into a verbal announcement of how much spam my firewall at work had picked up over the weekend. Just by the way, my mind really believes I get lots of spam: 13,143 items to be exact.
I think about work WAY too much.
This isn’t how I thought my 200th post would be, but in place of the 200th post extravaganza I bring you
How many drummers does it take to change a light bulb?
Twenty. One to hold the bulb, and nineteen to drink until the room spins.
What do you call someone who hangs out with musicians?
A drummer.
*Note: I don’t mean to just pick on drummers, and yes, I DO BELIEVE THAT DRUMMERS ARE (well, they can be) MUSICIANS. All the guys I regularly play with now are great, and this isn’t directed at anyone. I saw these as a comment on Grant’s blog.
Got a problem? Take it up with Jill
Here are a few things I have found that make the day pass faster. Of course, you should *never* do this stuff at work, and I *promise* I didn’t find them by looking at the firewall logs. Honest.
1. The Fail Blog - Just collections of images where people or objects are unsuccessful at their tasks, with the mocking word “Fail” somewhere on the image.
2. Penguin Ball - Help the Yeti hit the penguins for distance
3. I Can Has Cheezburger - LoLCats and other LoLCat speak sundries. I can’t help it… it’s just funny.
4. Fark.com - “Not News” site that has some humorous headlines and a comment thread that can be outrageously funny. It is however, sometimes NSFW so don’t let your boss or your children in on the secret.
5. Listoftheday.blogspot.com - This is another one that I can’t help but be addicted to. Again, some of the content is not exactly rated G, but it generally stays in the PG to PG-13 range.
6. LarkNews.com - A funny, funny look at the church. I’m not easily offended by it, but then again I am pretty cynical about “doing church”. Maybe I just understand part of where those “all Church people are hypocrites” are coming from. Either way, this site is a funny look at churches. Be sure to go check out the T-Shirts. I”m thinking of buying some for my pastors.
Sorry for the downer post yesterday. I know it’s my blog, and I probably don’t have to apologize, but I shouldn’t let stuff get me down that way.
Perhaps today will be a better day.
