bon, you sound like you are having a day like mine. In my case, I have very little to do. But that may be a good thing considering how coherent I am.

Currently reminding myself that fretting for the next 90 minutes will have no impact on the readiness of my car.

Now THAT would have made me a Firefly fan!

The captain also has large hands.

(1) The captain's hands aren't actually all *that* large.

(2) The captain just ain't attractive. msbelle can have him.

Teppy I thought about you last night when I was watching part of Deal or No Deal (I was flipping between that and hockey). The contestant was this really tall good looking guy from Texas and he had really really nice hands. He's married and at one point he started crying and wiping his eyes so I got a good look at his hands. They flew his wife out as a surprise and he totally lost it then, I don't know who was with him in the audience, but I think it was his brother (who also started crying).

My desk is going to be AWESOME.

Dude, isn't that from last year's Apprentice?

(I'd be ashamed of knowing that, but they also brought the Magic Eraser to the world's and Mr.Clean's attention, so I think it cancels out or something.)

Yeah, it's apprentice branded. I didn't actually watch that season, partly because the contestants were so stupid. It's therefore ironic in the Alanis Morissette sense that this seems to be the best organizer I've found yet for my needs. But, magic eraser? They did that too?!

I'm not really embarrassed about watching the Apprentice, but I hope people don't come into my office and think I have it for the same reason people buy Survivor "buffs." I already have a little plastic toilet that makes a flushing sound that was a gift from a partner.

Teppy is a hard customer to please. The thug's hands aren't that big, nor the doctor's. Even the agent's aren't. No wonder you never became a fan.

As long as you don't start having stupid hair, bon.

I can wait 20 more minutes before calling the mechanic. I can wait 20 more minutes before calling the mechanic. I can wait 20 more minutes before calling the mechanic. I can wait 20 more minutes before calling the mechanic.

I have phone trust issues. I never believe someone is going to call me back.

But, magic eraser? They did that too?!

They didn't invent it, but they publicized it when it was a little no-name thing you could only buy on one of the home shopping channels. Fast-forward six months or a year and suddenly it's Mr. Clean branded and available everywhere - I do think that's most likely what happened.

I'm not really embarrassed about watching the Apprentice, but I hope people don't come into my office and think I have it for the same reason people buy Survivor "buffs."

Nah, I'm sure not, since it looks like it's actually a pretty cool thing. Not that "buffs" don't look kind of handy too, if only they weren't all Survivor patterned. It that something that exists in nature beyond the world of reality tv?

All best wishes to AnotherAlaskan and a peaceful passing for his mother. Peace and comfort to him and his family.
