shrift, your supervisor is planning on kidnapping you and keeping you trapped in the server room, like Kathy Bates in Misery.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Okay. That was weird. A coworker told me to have a great weekend, and then told me to be careful. Twice.
You know how in the movies, the cop who's three days away from retirement always takes it in the chest?
Probably nothing to worry about...

You'll do whatever it takes to see justice is done. Or more.
Of course, since I'm black, I'll yell at you, wave a cigar, and demand your badge, but deep inside I totally understand what you're doing, and once you're out of the office I'll put my job on the line to protect you from the higher-ups.

City of Biscuits in Selfridges:
Mr Dong said he had chosen biscuits because they look like building blocks and "they are very sweet so you can't eat a lot of them otherwise they make you sick".
An estimated 72,000 biscuits, including digestives, chocolate digestives, rich tea, hobnobs, caramels and fruit shortcake, will be used during the week-long project.
Mr Dong has also built biscuit cities in Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai and Paris.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow stunned diners on Tuesday night when she ordered what looked like raw fish and then downed a beer. The star was dining with husband Chris Martin at the New York City sushi bar Cube 63 where Paltrow ordered a salad and what appeared to be sushi, which is thought to be potentially harmful during pregnancy. Martin left the restaurant to pick up several bottles of Irish stout Guinness at a nearby deli and when he returned, diners were surprised when Paltrow, who is five months pregnant with the couple second child, drank one herself. According to a witness, "People were looking and waving, and she just tried to melt further into the corner." Some health experts recommend a little Guinness for expectant mothers because of the drink's high iron content. A representative for the actress confirmed she drank the alcoholic beverage, but said she ate only cooked food, not sushi.
I ate sushi while pregnant--not the raw fish kind but the other stuff that was safe. Oh, and for the love of all that's holy--the preggo police need to lay off this woman! One beer isn't going to give her sprog Fetal Alcohol Syndrome! My doc always gave me the ok for the odd half glass of wine or light beer. Feh.
