A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in the butt. Don't be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted. It doesn't matter what you do, it only matters what you say you've done and what you're going to do. After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before. The more crap you put up with, the more crap you are going to get. You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard. Eat one live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day. When the bosses talk about improving productivity, they are never talking about themselves. If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. No use being a darn fool about it. There will always be beer cans rolling on the floor of your car when the boss asks for a ride home from the office. Keep your boss's boss off your boss's back. Everything can be filed under "miscellaneous". Never delay the ending of a meeting or the beginning of a cocktail hour. To err is human, to forgive is not our policy. Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he/she is supposed to be doing. Important letters that contain no errors will develop errors in the mail. If you are good, you will be assigned all the work. If you are really good, you will get out of it. You are always doing something marginal when the boss drops by your desk. People who go to conferences are the ones who shouldn't. If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done. At work, the authority of a person is inversely proportional to the number of pens that person is carrying. When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried. Following the rules will not get the job done. Getting the job done is no excuse for not following the rules. When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?" No matter how much you do, you never do enough. The last person that quit or was fired will be held responsible for everything that goes wrong. ======================================================= +------------ BIZARRE HOLIDAYS ------------+ September 3 is Labor Day and Skyscraper Day September 4 is Newspaper Carrier Day September 5 is Be Late for Something Day and Cheese Pizza Day September 6 is Fight Procrastination Day and Read a Book Day September 7 is National Salami Day and Neither Rain nor Snow Day September 8 is International Literacy Day, National Date Nut Bread Day and Pardon Day September 9 is Grandparent's Day, National Pet Memorial Day, Rosh Hashanah and Teddy Bear Day ======================================================= >-->From GoodCleanFun: (@@@) (@@@@@) (@@) (@@@@@@@) (@@@@@@@) (@@@@@@@) (@@@@@) (@@@@@@@@@@@) (@@@) (@@@@@@@) (@@@@@@) (@@@) (@@@@@@) (@@@@@@) (@) (@@@) (@@@@) (@@) (@@) (@@@) .-. ] [ .-. _ .-----. ."

He has great rapport with the regulars, but occasionally runs into a problem rider. One passenger, for instance, seemed irritated at having to hand over his ticket to be punched. "Where are you going today?" Bob asked, smiling. "Well, what does the ticket say?" replied the traveler sarcastically. "Um, it says you're on the wrong train," Bob informed him. "What am I supposed to do now?" asked the flustered passenger. Returning the punched card, Bob replied calmly, "Ask the ticket." -<>- >Philosophy Exam An eccentric philosophy professor gave a one question final exam after a semester dealing with a broad array of topics. The class was already seated and ready to go when the professor picked up his chair, plopped it on his desk and wrote on the board: "Using everything we have learned this semester, prove that this chair does not exist." Fingers flew, erasers erased, notebooks were filled in furious fashion. Some students wrote over 30 pages in one hour attempting to refute the existence of the chair. One member of the class however, was up and finished in less than a minute. Weeks later when the grades were posted, the rest of the group wondered how he could have gotten an "A" when he had barely written anything at all. His answer consisted of two words: "What chair?" -<>- >Retail Experience Rossi was the manager of an upscale men's wear store in a wealthy section of town and was interviewing Abe for a recently advertised salesman role. Rossi looked at Abe's resume and noticed that Abe had never worked in retail before. Rossi said to Abe, "If you don't mind me saying. For someone with no retail experience, you are certainly asking for a high salary." "Well, I suppose I am," Abe replied, "but you must understand that the work is so much harder when you don't know what you're doing." -<>- >Lucky Number 5 A 55-year-old man who was born on May 5, has been married 5 years, has 5 children, makes $55,555.55 a year, and who's lucky number is 5, receives a phone call from a friend. The friend informs the man that a horse named Lucky 5 will be running in the fifth race at the local track that evening. Excitedly, the man withdraws $5,555.55 cash from his bank account, goes to the races and bets on Lucky 5 to win. Sure enough, the horse comes in fifth. -<>- >How Old Is Your Baby? Three months after the birth of my first child, I finally managed to get to the supermarket alone.

"How do you know I have a baby?" I asked.

Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the axe. After that, I tried working in a donut shop, but I soon got tired of the hole business. I manufactured calendars, but my days were numbered. I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it. Mainly because it was a sew-sew job, de-pleating and de-pressing. I took a job as an upholsterer, but I never recovered. In my prime: Next I tried working in a car muffler factory, but that was exhausting. I wanted to be a barber, but I just couldn't cut it. Then I was a pilot, but tended to wing it, and I didn't have the right altitude. I studied to become a doctor, but I didn't have enough patients for the job. I became a Velcro salesman, but I couldn't stick with it. I tried my hand at a professional career in tennis, but it wasn't my racket. I was too high strung. I became a baker, but it wasn't a cakewalk, and I couldn't make enough dough. They fired me after I left a cake out in the rain. I was a masseur for a while, but I rubbed people the wrong way. I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining. Later in life: Then I became a personal trainer in a gym, but they said I wasn't fit for the job. I thought about being a historian, but I couldn't see a future in it. Next I was an electrician, but I found the work shocking and revolting, so they discharged me. I tried being a teacher, but I soon lost my principal, my faculties, and my class. I turned to farming, but I wasn't outstanding in my field. I took a job as an elevator operator. The job had its ups and downs, and I got the shaft. I sold origami, but the business folded. Finally: I took a job at UPS, but I couldn't express myself. I tried being a fireman, but I suffered burnout. I became a banker, but I lacked interest and maturity, and finally withdrew from the job. I was a professional fisherman, but I couldn't live on my net income. I next worked in a shoe factory, but I just didn't fit in. They thought I was a loafer, and I got the boot. I worked at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind. So I've retired, and I find I'm a perfect fit for this job!

He had completed 20 missions in Iraq and Afghanistan . One of the courses had a professor who was an avowed atheist, and a member of the ACLU. One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, "GOD, if you are real, then I want you to knock me off this platform... I'll give you exactly 15 min." The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am GOD, I'm still waiting." It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his chair, went up to the professor, and punched him; knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently. The other students were shocked and stunned, and sat there looking on in silence. The professor eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, "What in the world is the matter with you? Why did you do that?" The Marine calmly replied, "GOD was too busy today protecting America's soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid stuff and act like an idiot. So He sent me."

So far it has mostly been social media pressure, demonstrations and protests, but recently a secret group of activists in Virginia has begun a campaign to eliminate the right in a series of criminal attacks. The Roanoke Times has reported that the Clean Soles shoe store has been robbed of only right shoes over the course of two break-ins this summer. Clean Soles operator Rob Wickham says his two-year-old sneaker store was raided by two people in July, and again in August. Together, he lost shirts, hoodies, a jacket, and 13 right shoes. Wickham says he typically keeps right shoes on display, while their other halves rest behind the counter. Accordingly, Wickham says the looters were "pretty much risking their freedom for nothing." But have they? Is this a secret message being sent to conservative America? -<>- *------- Burglar Caught In a Tight Spot -------* Los Angeles police said a burglary suspect was arrested after needing to be rescued from his position between a wall and a building. The Los Angeles Police Department said a homeowner checking their security camera footage about 11:30 p.m. saw a person wandering the property. The homeowner decided to check the property the next morning to see if anything had been disturbed and they found the man was wedged between a wall and the home's garage. The Los Angeles Fire Department responded about 8:10 a.m. and it took more than an hour to free the man, who had sustained minor injuries from his ordeal. It was unclear how long he had been wedged. LAPD Officer Rosario Herrera said the man was arrested on suspicion of trespassing and police suspect he may have been involved in a nearby burglary earlier Wednesday evening. *----------------- Bongzilla ------------------* A soon-to-open marijuana museum in Las Vegas offered a sneak preview of its exhibits -- including a 24-foot-tall bong said to be the world's largest. The Cannabition Cannabis Museum, set to open in September on downtown Las Vegas' famed Fremont Street, held a sneak preview event that included the unveiling of its star attraction, a 25-foot- tall, 800-pound bong dubbed "Bongzilla." J.J. Walker [Kid Dy-no-mite!], founder of Cannabition, said Bongzilla, created by artist Jason Harris, might eventually be used for actual marijuana smoking if Nevada's recreational marijuana laws are amended to allow for smoking in public social settings. "It's actually glow-in-the-dark glass, and it's actually a hittable bong," Walker said. Harris said he felt Cannabition was the right home for his creation. "Las Vegas will be the new Amsterdam of the world," he told the Los Angeles Times. "I see it as a big lighthouse and beacon that says, 'Just smoke me.'" *- When Life Hands You Lemons, This Guy Will Steal Them -* A California sheriff's office said deputies conducting a traffic stop arrested a man found to be transporting 800 pounds of stolen lemons. The Riverside County Sheriff's Office said deputies were investigating a string of recent agricultural thefts when they conducted the traffic stop Friday. The sheriff's office said Los Angeles resident Dioncio Fierros, 69, was found to be transporting about 800 pounds of freshly picked lemons that had been illegally taken from a nearby farm. *- World Dive Chess Championship Held in London -* Much like ski-boxing, and women's basketball, underwater chess sounds like a madeup activity, but apparently it is popular enough that a world championship was held recently in London where chess players showed off their skills - as well as their lung capacities. The underwater tournament featured players taking turns diving underwater to make their moves on a chess board submerged in a pool. The rules require a player to make a move before coming up for air, and the next player must then go underwater until they have made a response move. Organizers said the aquatic twist makes the ancient game of chess more challenging and faster-paced. ========================================================= >-->From TheGroaner: (.,------...__ _.'" `. .' .' `, `. `. ` . .' .'/''--...__`. \ . .--.`.

I had a dream last night and everyone was talking in French!" "Great!" said the teacher; "what were they saying?" "I don't know," Dewey replied; "I couldn't understand a word of it." -<>- Early one evening a gentleman scuttled out to his garage and pulled the lawn furniture out onto the driveway. Shortly after followed the lawnmower, a few gardening tools and a bicycle. A curious neighbor wandered over and asked if he was going to have a garage sale. "No," replied the gentleman, "my son just bought his first car and right now he's getting ready for a big date. He'll be taking the car out soon to pick up the girl." "So what's with all the stuff?" asked the neighbor. "Well, after years of moving tricycles, toys and sports equipment out of the way every time I came home from work, I wanted to make sure the driveway was ready for him." -<>- Did you know you can find the gender of an ant by putting it in water? If it sinks: girl ant. If it floats: boy ant. -<>- Needing to look up a phone number while at a friend's house, my teenage daughter asked for a phone book. She might as well have asked for a papyrus scroll. "A phone book?" asked her friend. "You know," said my daughter. "A book with numbers in it." "Oh," said her friend as it dawned on her. "You mean a math book." -<>- The proud father brought home a backyard swing set for his children and immediately started to assemble it with all the neighborhood children anxiously waiting to play on it. After several hours of reading the directions, attempting to fit bolt A into slot B, etc., he finally gave up and called upon an old handyman working in a neighboring yard. The old-timer came over, threw the directions away, and in a short while had the set completely assembled. It's beyond me," said the father, "how you got it together without even reading instructions." "To tell the truth," replied the old-timer, "I can't read, and when you can't read, you've got to think." -<>- Last June, my friend told me about her plans for our upcoming prom. "I'm renting a stretch limo and spending $1,000 on a new dress, and I've reserved a table at the most expensive restaurant in town," she said. Our teacher overheard her and shook her head. "I didn't spend that much on my wedding." My friend answered, "I can have three or four weddings. But a prom you do only once." ========================================================= >-->From TheMouth: __ (`/\ `=\/\ __...--~~~~~-._ _.-~~~~~--...__ `=\/\ \ / \\ `=\/ V \\ //_\___--~~~~~~-._ | _.-~~~~~~--...__\\ // ) (..----~~~~._\ | /_.~~~~----.....__\\ ===( INK )==========\\|//==================== __ejm\___/________dwb`---`____________________________________________ >Great Book That Were Never Written 1. 20 yards to the Out House by Willie Makit (Illustrated by Betty Wont) 2.
