Thanks, Denise. It's great to be back.
Let's see...I figure after what happened during my first day back I'll need another vacation starting today and will be able to take one some time around December.

It's been real.
Well, it seems as if no one wants that last point. Heck, I even said you could
bribe the judge. Of course, what could you have bribed me with? Besides with the
obvious, that is.
Rat pictures would be good.
Joe Don Baker pictures would also be good.
C'mon, people! Use your imagination!
Ah, well. Since no one gives a rat's ass about it, I'll give you the answer to number two: A Day Without a Mexican is the movie with the SoCal dialogue in it, and apparently no one but me has seen it. Not that it was worth seeing. But then again, neither are most of my favorite movies.
But seriously, folks, it's been fun posting on Jim's blog whilst ignoring mine. Next time Jim takes a vacation, I hope I'll be invited back, even if I did post a crappy "Match That Quote" game and possible bored off some of his readers. Sorry, Jim.
Yep, rambling posts that just jump from point to point...that's my style!

One more time
Well since today is probably the last day I get to post at Snooze Button Dreams I wanted to write a post expressing just how much this experience has meant to me. Most folks just donÂ’t get a chance to post on a blog as successful as this one. For a week I had the warm fuzzy feeling that
whatÂ’s his name must get every time he spanks a
midget porn star. For a week I had the more power than this
hateful shrew and much to my surprise I was able to withstand the urge to blog about a group of
angry lesbian midgets.
For a week my fellow Snooze Crew™ Members and I have turned out posts that would make that other group blog jealous. We’ve posted lots of funny, some stuff that was thought provoking and some stuff that was rather disturbing (who’s damned idea was it to post a picture of Jim in Manties anyway?).
It wasn’t just the Snooze Crew™ that made it possible either. It was the loyal readers of Snooze Button Dreams that kept us posting; that and Jim’s threat to withhold spankings for a week if we misbehaved while he was gone. Sure I know what you’re thinking a spanking from another man doesn’t sound right. But you know what, it’s not like we’re gay (even though Jim’s running one of the finest gay blogs on the Interweb), nope, we’re like Romans. And nobody ever called the gladiators homo’s even if they were playing slap and tickle in the locker room.
Sorry I got a little side tracked. Back to the readers, yup you guys really made us feel all warm and fuzzy. Like when I used to climb a rope in gym class, type warm and fuzzy. ItÂ’s definitely a feeling IÂ’ll miss, but hey maybe yÂ’all will stop by and visit my little hole in the wall of the blogidoheckiweb every now and then and we can laugh about the good ole times when Jim turned over the keys to his shop to a bunch of wingnuts.

With my apologies
IÂ’m desperately trying to come up with something for the Snooze.
Except- My teeth hurt. I have a crew of trolls with jackhammers pounding away at one tooth and the dentist is busy, probably picking out his Ferrari purchased from funds acquired from my insurance company last time I was there.
Shall we say the quality of his work is a bit suspect, to say the least.

Bitching and moaning is always a good post.

Oh Rob ....... you having dental problems too?
Let me tell you ...... in April I went to the dentist 4 times to get 2 teeth fixed, cleaning & checkup. My first visit to the dentist in 6 years.
So far in May, I have been there 6 times. The two cavities they filled after the checkup have now resulted in root canals. Those 6 visits were over a period of 13 days, alot of pain, and vicadin that was not working. I still have one more visit before all is said and done ....... hopefully there will be no revisits for any pain afterwards.
Believe me, after this experience, I am finding myself a new dentist.

Whew..
Vicadin is a lousy painkiller- Fortunately, you feel so damn good you just don't care about the pain.. Hence- No Vicadin. "Roughing it" with 800 mg of Motrin every two to three hrs, just to keep it down to a dull roar.
Bastard did call, so I'll be dragging myself in later today. If he hurts me, I'm gonna punch him.

Cartoonage
Man, I love me some cartoons, especially
Tom & Jerry (pre-1955, please) and
Wile E. Coyote. But my very favorite cartoons are two Bugs Bunny cartoons which are probably faves of yours, too:
The Rabbit of Seville and my absolute favorite,
What's Opera, Doc?
At work, I listen to a classical station, and you know what I've discovered? I can't hear anything by Wagner without thinkig of that cartoon.
Kill the wabbit, kill the wabbit!

Bernie Mac is a jack ass
Okay, I admit that there is a small possibility that it wasn't actually Bernie Mac who wouldn't even give the courtesy of "The Wave" when I let him out of the Arby's parking lot onto the highway. As a co-worker pointed out there's a high probability that Bernie Mac doesn't drive a beat up late model Oldsmobile. Then again if he's getting paid according to the acting ability he's displayed in
recent films he just might be. The googly eyes were funny 10 years ago, Bernie. Now go buy yourself a new shtick.
Sure looked like him anyway.

Speaking of being annoying and rude:
Isn't jackass one word?
Posted by: shank at May 09, 2005 03:42 PM (+H1yK)

Ordinarily yes. In this case it was a play on words.
You see, a "jack" is a sailor (like in "Cracker Jack", eh?). Sailors are also known as tars. Everybody remembers the story about the tar baby, right?
So as you can plainly see, I was involved in a derogatory racist insult, not a simple spelling error.

Another thing that really pisses me off is people who just can't admit that they made a damned mistake and build some convoluted bullshit excuse for it.
Posted by: Jim at May 09, 2005 03:48 PM (tyQ8y)

But as far as bullshit excuses go, that one was amazing. Are they really known as tars? Humph. But it was mostly amazing because you're willing to be outed as a racist (even if you aren't) if it means you get to be right. That is true dedication.

Stuff that has pissed me off today
- Towel dispensers placed high on the wall so when you reach up to them the water on your hands runs back down your arms. I've also noticed that the vast majority of paper dispensers are placed out of reach of kids. Don't we want these guys to learn basic hygiene?
- People who don't give you "The Wave" when you let them pull into traffic ahead of you. It's my right of way, buddy. The least you could do is give me a thank-you when I try to be nice and let you in.
- Pencils that are too short to use. Why do they put graphite all the way through them anyway?
- Office chairs with the tilt lever where the up/down lever is supposed to be. Purchasing agents should not be permitted to buy chairs unless they've sat in them.
- Cubicles set up so everybody passing by sees your screen. One of my projects has hush-hush elements and I'm getting paranoid every time I open up a document for it.
- Phones without caller ID. The Do Not Disturb setting works really well but there's no "Except for Boss1 or Boss2" setting.
- Whiny blog posts that are full of nothing except a list of annoyances.
So what's pissing you off today? Sound off in the comments.

"A hush-hush project" - is that what they're calling it now? nudge-nudge, wink-wink
Anyway - revising for an Arabic oral exam when we have done approximately no speaking so far in the course is my pet peeve today...

my back. It's been achy lately. I think I was abducted by aliens, and they took my spine out and gave me one from some seventy-five year old retired migrant worker. Christ almighty.

The alarm clock, the drive to work, the people I must see and hear, the lack of lunch and the smell of microwave popcorn, which has permeated the entire building.
Aside from the above, the day's been okay.

The only thing worse than that completely engulfing smell of popcorn at work is the completely engulfing smell of burnt popcorn at work.

I hate it when people burn popcorn. You don't even need to be able to
read anymore to cook popcorn correctly; just hit the button with the popcorn icon on it. I bet you could train a retarded lab rat how to microwave a decent bag of popcorn. Do you work in that office from the commercials? The one with all the monkeys in it?
Posted by: shank at May 09, 2005 04:53 PM (+H1yK)

Maybe that's the problem. Our microwaves are a bit older and still have the word "popcorn" instead of a picture.

My worst peeve at work? When people think my personal workspace is their storage area and dump their shit there. Or take stuff without asking and not return it.
That stuff makes me go psycho.

The number 67.5 and the letter Y.

I'm not annoyed by anything yet today (except the sales people at my work who can't sell things properly) but one thing that irritates me generally in the category of hygiene is the Infinity Towel.
You don't see these much any more, but when I encounter them (one of my favorite restaurants has it) they bother me.
Instead of dispensing towels, there is just one big, long loop of a towel that you're supposed to rotate through the contraption.
Do you think I'm touching that? Hell no.

Our chairs at work seem to go on the fritz. You'll be sitting there and suddenly, you drop an inch. Then about 5 minutes later, it happens again.
And even though, it's only an inch, it's like taking the first plunge on the roller coaster, because here you are intently concentrating, and then your chair drops an inch.
Annoying. I got a new chair. They've had to replace 30% of the chairs in my office.

Jim, I don't know if you go back to read comments added long after you've posted something here. I hope you do.
My mom worked as the city administrator and was involved in municipal politics her entire working career. She worked with a mayor for a few years whom she truly disliked and he annoyed her.
Unbeknownst to her, I programmed her telephone display to read 'The Little Shit" when he called her at home.
The first time he called her after I'd done that, she laughed so hard she had to hang up!
