Things I learned Last Year:
January 2, 2008
At Work

- My professionalism unpredictably ebbs and flows relative to my level of caffination.
- I rarely have the correct level of caffination
- And I quote “A dress code is a not a challenge, AJ. Just put on some shoes and we will ignore the rest”.
- Growing mug fungus cannot be justified as an HR intiative; nor can the resulting standoff with building services be defused by claming it’s “the moldy happenstance of my poisoned loins”.
- I would pretty much have to kill a guy to get fired.
In the Bathroom

- If I try to stand on my hands and urinate I will piss in my own face every time (as I do to not have a free hand available to make requisite directional adjustments).
- I am not strong enough to do a one armed hand stand; attempting such can have unpleasant consequences in a porcelain rich environment.
- My engineering skills are not sufficient to rig up an elaborate teeth drawn pulley system, without incurring signifigant physical trauma.
- I should probably have one of those life helpers they give Retards At Large.
On The Internet

- Commensurate with the principles of meritocracy: captioning a cat photo with broken English is the highest art form of our era.
- Commensurate with the principles of reciprocity: I’m going to start stomping the heads of any kitten I see in a amusing pose.
- If you grow a Red Mullet the ladies will flock to you (see above)
Matters Metaphysical

- Wrestling my grandfathers ghost to the ground does not entitle me to his estate.
- Sometimes an emerging third eye is just a unibrow growing in.
- Karma is not only a bitch, she’s a whore and a liar.
- Zeus does not drive a large white van, enjoy grape popsicles, and delight in giving full body massages on demand.
- Never join a cult with your boss

“Never join a cult with your boss”
amen

“A dress code is a not a challenge, AJ. Just put on some shoes and we will ignore the rest”.
I find you so entertaining.

I don’t know…even if you kill the guy they may not give you the pink slip. I’m not suggesting you try it, but still….

“If you grow a Red Mullet the ladies will flock to you (see above)”
and those ladies will be sisters…
…your sisters.

In regards to the picture posted above the “mullet” comment.
AJ, there is no reason to poke fun at your cousin Auberdine and his sisters.
Sure they are a little ‘close’ for relatives, and sure Auberdine may have a red mullet in addition the Valliant devilish good looks, but that’s no reason to post his picture on the internet without his consent!
Susy-Lynn-Amy, and Darlene-Dory-Anne-Sue are both lovely people, and love their brother Auberdine very much.
Granted, maybe too much, but still, have a heart!

I find it kinda scary how good AJ looks in a mullet. Hook that man up with a pack of cigs flipped up on his arm and an IROC pronto.

I love the mullet picture … I think I just might print it out (full page blow-up) and pin it on a wall in my cubicle … *ponders*
January 3, 2008 at 1:13 pm
Yeah, that mullet pic… that seems awfully familiar. A little too familiar. I’m calling your mom to cross reference with her pics.
January 3, 2008 at 2:07 pm
I reckon y’all better shut your mouths before I git my pa to blast y’all with ‘is shat gun. That there is what we do to folks who mess with family.

The photos in this post alone tell such a haunting tale… such a haunting tale.

That’s quite a colorful mold collection. I had no idea you were such a fungus aficionado. Now if you’ll excuse me I am going to go get a red mullet
January 5, 2008 at 1:44 pm
You look bizarrely like my Uncle with a red mullet…and the lady on the left, like his fiance. Disquieting.
Also, you might try the one handed hand stand with a spotter.
January 11, 2008 at 10:12 pm
Oh my god…you look like a guy I did in seventh grade!
The red mullet, arghhhhh! It’s like the insane beating of the tell tale heart! I’m having flashbacks, I can’t breathe, I’m choking, oh yeah, please tell me you licked that girl’s fine navel.

“Karma is not only a bitch, she’s a whore and a liar.”
How narrow of you to assume that such vindictiveness comes from a woman…misogynist!
January 11, 2008 at 10:15 pm
Karma is not a whore…Jesus was! And he’s fooled us all!
January 11, 2008 at 10:15 pm
And he was probably gay, which makes him a bitch, and a liar!
