Since I like to go archive-spelunking, I thought it would be fun to go back and post some wise words from earlier days and see if the few remaining readers might know from whence they came.
Of course the game is already too easy, as fish, the coward, has scrubbed all posts... And ZRM has hidden his amongst a trail of locked and abandoned blogs... still... I have email!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!!
The first entry in "Who Wrote This???"??? It's an easy one. :)
Have you ever worked with someone who gets distracted from the job at
hand when a squirrel runs by the window? Someone who spends down time
vacantly staring at a wall, slack jawed,
brain making the kind of ticking noises you hear when an engine's
cooling down? A person with the best intentions in the world and
absolutely, positively no way of making any of them come true?
That is my life.
I am a nice person.
Actually,
I'm not. I am, however, very passive aggressive. That means when
someone behaves like this I grind my teeth until they hurt, but I'd
rather suffer than confront them. Instead, I cut them out of things and
try to maneuver them out of the organization, or at least my part of
it. In this part of the world, that's how most people deal with
conflict.
I can't take it anymore, though. One person, who has
been told not to do something at least fifty times in the last three
years, something that has the potential to seriously harm our
organization, did it again today...
Cast your bets, people!!!
I know who didn't say it:
Theda, the Notorious D.A.W.G.
Squirrels are important.

My dawgs now mentally flip me off when I make the squirrel noise and put unsalted peanuts on the windowsill, or... pull one from my pocket when outside.

Squirrels are Creed fans. Every last nut-muching one of them.

It is about Capt. Trollypants, but I don't know who wrote it.

We chase the squirrels, every change we get.
It's good clean fun.

What is this "job at hand" of which you speak?
Posted by: herr doktor bimler | February 04, 2013 at 10:33 PM
...bimler...
Pinko may be correct.
ZRM- you and the squirrels are just going to have to agree to disagree.

I feel insulted.

For some reason a Far Side cartoon comes to mind. You know the one. The caption is "Andrew, go out and get your grandfather. The squirrels have got him again."

It can't be Snag. Not enough bourbon or meat.
Posted by: Brando | February 06, 2013 at 09:45 AM
It was Brando. He is inking the water now.
Posted by: fish | February 06, 2013 at 12:16 PM
I wish I could go that many words without swearing or referencing genitals.
Posted by: Brando | February 06, 2013 at 03:11 PM
George W. Bush's personal secretary?
Posted by: Snag | February 06, 2013 at 10:47 PM
Yeah... I loved her blog. Whatever happened to her??
Posted by: Jennifer | February 07, 2013 at 06:49 AM
fish strikes me as properly passive aggressive. The whole "one word zardoz comment" thing pretty much indicts him.
If, that is, I could remember who fish is.
Posted by: zombie rotten mcdonald | February 07, 2013 at 03:28 PM
You mean who fish was. He's a has-been.
