In so doing, also got groove thang shaking, which proved of collateral benefit to overall job performance by releasing endorphins, improving job satisfaction and blunting desire to kill all co-workers

On reflection, though, wouldn't "got that money-maker shaking" look better on a resume than "got groove thang shaking"? Business is business, after all.

I can't decide if I'm delighted or terrified.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Did this get posted and I missed it?

I am betting, after all this mess, if we have a good candidate, we won't see a Republican in the White House for a very long time.

Upon consideration, Frank, although you make a good point, one must also consider that "groove thang" contains 4 fewer letters than "that money-maker," thus rendering it the preferable phrase on the keystroke-efficiency scale; should either of those phrases become standard business-speak, it's clear that those 4 keystrokes, over the tens of thousands of repetitions Heartless, Inc. plans to wring out of its hapless employees over the decades, could add up to several full minutes of time said employees could devote to shouldering other meaningless soul-sucking tasks vital job duties for HI.

Frank, Frank, Frank. You've got to think big by thinking small.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Allyson, I think that news story has circulated a bit, but there's no statute of limitations on mocking the illiterate.

I think it will be very hard to defeat the Republicans in the next election cycle and in 2008. The RNC is absolutely kicking the DNC's ass in fundraising for the midterm elections, by more than 2 to 1.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I don't know, but I heard that story on NPR's Radio Expeditions this morning. More than one avid birder interviewed described having wept with joy when he realized that it really was this long-lost bird.
