And we thought you were straight laced. Things that make you go HMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Why in the world would you ever think that??

Your new avatar sentance thingy reminds me of a magnet I have on the fridge that says, "Don't make me get the flying monkeys!"

 

[des1954]

Then did he raise on high the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, saying, "Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the lambs and toads and tree-sloths and fruit-bats and orangutans and breakfast cereals ... Now did the Lord say, "First thou pullest the Holy Pin. Then thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the counting and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither shalt thou count two, excepting that thou then proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the number of the counting, be reached, then lobbest thou the Holy Hand Grenade in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

Yay Jerry!!! Perfect Monty Python quote!!!

I fart in your general direction!

Guys - Catching up on the posts since this morning has really cheered me up!!!

We got some really suck-y news today.... after FOUR (yes FOUR) interviews at Lowe's for (now get this) an hourly paying job... my DH gets a computer generated note telling him basically thanks but you didn't get the job. They didn't even have the balls to call him and tell him in person!!

I am really tempted to write a letter to the editor of our local paper (and a few others) expressing how corporations are age discrimanatory. Publix, Lowe's, and a few others might not like to see their names and discrimination of any kind in the same sentence.

Yes, I'm pizzed off!!! Most jobs DH has put in for he has met or exceeded their qualifications. Do you think it's because they see DOB 1953??? I'm really beginning to think so.

Okay - thanks for listening to me rant!

I think it's the chopsticks/walrus picture I sent them.

 

[JCJRSmith]

They put him thru FOUR interviews and turned him down? That is absolutely absurd. What were they thinking? Sorry to hear that Deb.

Thanks, Jerry. Can you believe that???? I thought the 3rd interview was a bit much. It was for a department specialist's job - which is higher paying than a general grunt - but four interviews??? I'm assuming they had made their minds up at the end of # 4 --- so why didn't they just tell him then?

Well --- I guarantee you that I will never step into another Lowe's again.

He has other possibilities cooking, so we're keeping our fingers crossed. Unemployment runs out at the end of this month. Arrrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhh!

Keep the MP quotes coming for me!!! (Fruit, Pansy, fruit!!)

I used to be such a Monty Python geek that I had the following memorized:

Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, Liszt, Brahms, Panties...I'm sorry...Schumann, Schubert, Mendelssohn and Bach. Names that will live for ever. But there is one composer whose name is never included with the greats. Why is it that the world never remembered the name of Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- crasscrenbon- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- ticolensic- grander- knotty- spelltinkle- grandlich- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nürnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shönedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm? To do justice to this man, thought by many to be the greatest name in German Baroque music, we present a profile of Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- crasscrenbon- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- ticolensic- grander- knotty- spelltinkle- grandlich- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nürnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shönedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm.

Great motto, Rog!! Hey.... your weight tracker "thingy" is back!!! I am very, very, very impressed, "not-so-big" guy!!!

I deal with Lowe's occasionally at work. They are on the Pete do not patronize list, with Capital one and General Dynamics.
