One of my coworkers I work alongside with just got the flu. Bummer. I hope you don't have it but here is a sure-fire way to find out (from Web site: doihavethefuckingflu.com).

1. Stand in front of a mirror with your eyes closed.
2. Stick out your tongue.
3. Open your eyes.
4. If you can see your tongue in the mirror, you have the flu.



Good luck man.

Is it just me, or do the Maryland unis look like the Bojangles logo?

I thought all they needed were wigs and big red shoes and they'd be Ronald McDonald's lookalikes.

They need a Johnny Rocket's banner to hang next to it.

But would that banner bring the people happiness?

If you send just a general letter or note to someone you haven't seen in many years, and then you call them up to ask if they got your random note, never slip up and say "ransom note" instead. It tends to freak them out/piss them off, especially if they have kids.

ba-dum-bum, ching!

We bought 20 windows, at the Habit for Humanity Resale Store today. They are brand new. $15.00 each. Also bought kitchen cabinets, 17 in all that match. They are used. We will paint then and get new counter tops. They are nice ones and in very good condition. Cost was $500.00. We're getting ready to build our house on Kerr Lake. I am excited. :happy-bouncyblue: :happy-bouncyblue: :happy-bouncyblue:

That's a great deal! Are the windows double pane energy efficient windows or just regular single pane windows?
