A couple of skate punks are outside the box office singing a Journey tune. I can't decide if they are being ironic or sadistic.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I just picked up the phone myself. Of course, the line was busy, so it's a crapshoot whether I'll remember to call again in five minutes.
I remembered! I'm on the phone now!
I was watching the World Series of Poker on ESPN last night (I find the main event episodes fascinating to watch), and one of my favorite pros (Daniel Negreanu) was in a Rocky mode, having just watched Rocky IV the night before. So, he was humming/singing "Eye of the Tiger" throughout the day at the showcase table. After winning a big hand, he was humming the tune up to a point, then he pointed to the rest of the table and everyone sang in unison the rest of the line: "the eyyyyyye...of the tiger!"

Hivemind question - where should I go on my lunchtime: Hardware store or gym?
Go to the hardware store. Ask if they can recommend some chains you can use to store your kayak in the garage.

OK, someone wanna tell me the perfect phrase to use when I call and say "I received the FedEx with the offer information, and it's what you said yesterday and all is very exciting, but on reflection, I'm really a bit disappointed in the base salary, is there anything you can do about that?" (Which would be fine, until he says "No, not really"). Is there a better way ot put it?
Preface it with the "I received everything" and ask if the salary/base pay is at all negotiable?
