So tell them they get paid to deal with something much lighter for a change. Oh, and pay them overtime to do it, too. You're such a nice guy.

Today, instead of money, I gave the boss a W9.

You sure that's not going to get kicked back?

Yup.
He's in business, & knows that payment requires government monitoring.

I coughed up a nasty mouthful of muddy-looking mucus today.
I left home for Indianapolis around 10 this morning, and didn't get back to Kokomo till about 3 in the afternoon, just for a doctor's appointment that lasted about an hour.
And then I had to run around town for awhile getting my transcripts, and having to pay a truly BS bursars bill that shouldn't have been held against me (I had no notifications I was actually out of financial for the year until after the semester started, the total opposite of what my award amounts were showing).
The only paperwork I was unable to acquire for tomorrow is my immunization records. And I have to clean my boots off, because they're pretty muddy after this last weekend (the dress code actually says nothing about plain looking black boots, and it's a good thing because I have those and a pair of sneakers).

Silly! He's a pointy-headed engineer!

And I was a computer geek with a nerd pack and slipstick on my waist when I was young. The slipstick (sliderule) has been replaced by a cellphone but it's on my belt where I can grab it in 1-2 seconds at most.

There's lies, damn lies and promises by sales people and politicians - the later being the worst.

What's odd is that Kang's sister, Kodos, has 700 testicles.
Rigellian biology is weird.

And tomorrow I get to try and fix all of it....oh joy

Wu Wei is random and meaningless.

One of these days..............................................

Yeah, I'm pretty sure my neighbor tried to break into my house. That's just made my entire morning, right?

You're kidding, right?

 

[Revoltingest]

I've decided on a bell for me new bike.
I like the Americastanian made Spurcycle, but it's $49 !!!!
I'm going with the classic Japanese made Crane Suzu
for about $20 (+/- depending the model I pick).

This one would match some of my shirts....

But this one would would match the bike more....

 

[Quintessence]

You're kidding, right?

I hope so.

But apparently me leaving a polite note saying "hey, this object blew into my yard on a windy day and I've been holding onto it in my garage; is it yours?" means it's okay for them to try and guess the code to my garage door (which is basically breaking into my house). Granted, I'm connecting the dots here a bit, but there are only two other people who know the code to that keypad and both of them live out of town and wouldn't have left it flipped up and open like that.
