Just a small disclaimer:
If you check in to a hotel at a late hour after a long night of hockey and beer, and allow your 8 and 9 year old darlings (minor children) to set up field hockey nets in the hallway after 11pm and wake up a short fat bald guy (hereafter: Guy) in one of the rooms, he takes no responsibility for the appropriateness of his comments to said minors.(The guy does not do well when woken up by drunken strangers E.G: after a late night post football game drunken brawl in the parking lot, after a late night alcohol induced domestic violence incident in the room above his or two 3am fire alarms when a drunk guest tries to microwave a frozen pizza because he thought it was a toaster oven.)
And if the mother of one of those minors comes back and knocks on the fat guy's door, and tries to chew him out for the afore mentioned language, the Guy will win the argument by pointing out the time. There is no way your minor child's feelings will justify the continued playing of hockey in the hallway, because it is now 11:15 pm. Also be aware the Guy reserves the right to close the door in your face and leave you screaming "never do it again" to the peep hole. (I wouldn't have had to do it the first time were it not for your inaction. Did I overreact? Yes, but if you are too stupid to realize that your kids need to be contolled in a place like a hotel, you are too stupid for polite.)
Calling the front desk to demand a free night because your minor child woke up another guest and he yelled at you won't work, and may get you threatened with expulsion from the hotel, because there are a lot of people in town and the hotel could easily rent the room to another guest.
The weekend is still young. Oh goodie.

Slings my Hash
What happens when Debbie, Debra and Deborah all work in the same office? You get the runaround until you decide to forgo phone calls and show up in person. By the way hilarity ensues when they realize who you are and that the game is over.
So Debbie the pregnant one, Debra with the large boob tattoo that extends beyond her collar and Deborah the office manager, are now our "good friends", but they sure didn't want to be.
I've about had it with people bringing their bad home life to the office with them. I'm sorry your husband is a jerk and all, but when you get mad and interrupt everything I say, I begin to understand the communication problems in your marriage. He doesn't tell you anything? Gee, I wonder why.
Don't you just hate it when you find two jobs in the area you want to be in, and in the field in which you are trained, but can't afford to take either one? Yeah I do too.
But the US is in the lead for Olympic Medals.

I'm good at charades
As most of you know by now, I tend to play the contrarian. I will like something often because you don’t. The colts are in the Superbowl and there is nothing I can do about it.
On the news today the police department is warning of a crackdown on rowdiness and property destruction. I was just commenting the other day that we don’t have enough sports riots in this country, so we will see how that goes.
It also seems that some folks were working on having the game affect the next school day. They anticipated a high absentee rate among students, so they wanted to delay the start of school by 2 hours to let all the kids recover from their hangovers. The school board won’t let them do that so they compromised on one hour late, but then extending the school day by half an hour. They accidentally let it slip that this entire charade was because they don’t think their bus drivers will show up. They are worried that the people who drive 30 children to work won’t be fully about their faculties. And for this they want to disrupt the thousands of parents lives who have set schedules and will have to get to work late to accommodate these people.
How about the school districts make the bus driver job attractive to dependable folks by making the salaries a little higher and having a little bit more challenging hiring process?
When the revolution comes, organized sports are the first thing to go.
