Thanks for the workers' comp help.

If you need any more help my brother is a worker's comp attorney in NC. I could pass on questions to him.

(I just love his "Yeeeeah, bitches!" expression there. He's such a little punk.)

But also very, VERY cute!

Police charged pop singer Boy George with false imprisonment on Tuesday after he allegedly chained a man to a wall at his London home.

Sounds like actual imprisonment to me. False imprisonment would be if you said the door was locked, but it actually wasn't and they could really leave anytime.

That's what I was going to say. If you can't leave of your own volition, that sounds like real imprisonment.

You wish you had a Powerpoint presentation!

I bet Playboy would give you a root.

Though possibly not a husband.

Maybe someone else's husband.

shrift, have you heard from Playboy yet?

Nope. Hiring manager is out all week, so I am trying not to take it as A Sign That I Suck And Not in the Fun Way.

Cremation ashes at Disneyland -- a dusty epidemic

There's an epidemic of covert (human) ash-scattering at Disneyland, a practice that has spread from the Haunted Mansion to the Pirates of the Caribbean. The scatterers generally get away clean, and the human remains are subsequently cleaned away by special janitors who are charged with keeping the Park in compliance with health rules about containing particulate matter.

Just this past Friday a Cast Member watching the security cameras noticed a woman in the back of a boat throwing a powdery substance into the lavishly decorated sets in the cavern scenes near the beginning of the ride. Even though Pirates is a 15 minute long ride, by the time the lady spreading the substance returned to the loading area Security had yet to arrive.

The college age Cast Members operating the attraction knew that legally they were not supposed to detain anyone, and when they confronted her about what she was doing in the cameras she told them she was only throwing baby powder around. The woman quickly disappeared out the exit, never to be seen again, but she'd actually left more than baby powder all over the Pirates of the Caribbean.

Security and the police finally arrived, and the ride was shut down on a busy afternoon of a holiday weekend. The ash was identified by the Anaheim Police as cremated remains, and the custodial department found most of it all over the "Captain's Quarters" scene in the caverns. The woman had done a very thorough job of spreading the ash everywhere though, and after an hour of cleaning with the HEPA vacuums there was still work to be done.
