01:12 pm: Patriotic SPAM?
Here'e an email that I got from a co-worker.. I want to say.. "but we're in a "Blue State", maybe we should wear Blue?" .. but I'm figuring that she just won't get that I'm just joking!



Subject: PLEASE JOIN ME AND WEAR RED ON ALL FRIDAYS

RED FRIDAY
You will soon see a lot of people wearing Red on Fridays. Here's why.....

The Americans, who support our troops, are the silent majority. We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are.

Many Americans, like yourself, and all their friends, simply want to recognize that Americans support our troops.

Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is starting Friday and continuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that every red -blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED. Word of mouth, press, TV-let's see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game at a University.

If every one of our memberships share this with other acquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guarantee that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED - and make our troops know there are many people thinking of their well-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red! So let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.

I sent this out to everyone on my email list; hopefully, you will too. <<== That would be the SPAM part!

Wear Red on Fridays ...
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE.
FOR US! , THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED!! GOD BLESS AMERICA

10:20 am: Music Theory...
So, three notes walk into a bar -- a G, an Eb, and a C.

The bartender looks up and says "We don't serve minors."

So the Eb leaves and the other two have a fifth between them.

After a few drinks, the G was out flat, and the experience was diminished.

Eventually, the C sobers up, sees one of his friends missing, the other one
passed out, and realizes to his horror that he's under a rest.

08:22 am: Energy Crisis!
I was having a conversation with a fellow at work.. started with the
price of gasoline.. went to the hybrid cars.. how over-priced they
are.. even the sales guy will tell you the it'll pay for itself with
the fuel savings in no time.. (meanwhile, he sticks it to you.. he
figures the has the right to cash in on your alleged savings. what
the heck, it's a "market economy", sucker.)

The conversation continued.. to what the heck is going on with wind
energy (lots of the wind farms in California have been either shut
down, or largely reduced) .. and how about solar energy..

It was getting a little (yawn) long.. so I said.. hmm.. and there's
the one yet-untapped source of energy.. bovine flatulence.

After a brief chuckle.. the conversation was over!

10:50 am: More Sarcasm
When someone just leaves their mess behind.. it's tempting to say "Hey, your mother doesn't work here!" The trouble with that statement is that concept of "mother" is lost on trailer trash!
