I work in one of those offices where lots of people go on vacation in the summer (or are all offices like that?). On the summer days that I'm not on vacation, it's so quiet here it's creepy.

A guy from Xerox came to the office today to explain the features of our new photocopier/fax machine/printer/pizza oven. Here's a sample quote for your personal enjoyment:
"I'm assuming we don't have any transparencies kicking around?"

I usually never pay any attention to rap, but I just happened upon the lyrics to a NWA song on the internet and saw the light: rap is hilarious! See for yourself:
"To a kid lookin' up ta me
Life ain't nothin but bitches and money.
Cause I'm tha type o' nigga that's built ta last
If ya fuck wit me I'll put a foot in ya ass"

I would like to add to the entry with the URL (two below) that though I find that shirt amusing, I don't think much of the guy who runs the site. He sounds like someone who's very bitter and not very happy. And he calls himself an atheist, but he says God is a murderer. Maybe I'm a little slow, but can someone explain to me how God can be a murderer if he doesn't exist?

What a furball of a Monday morning. Bleah.
Three things:
1) Ever notice those ads on the subway? There's one of a miserable-looking, teary-eyed scarecrow, with some symptoms listed (itchy, watery eyes, etc.). And that's it. There's no way of knowing what the ad is for. I found it a bit alarming - I needed closure on that ad. Eventually I found it. The ad is supposed to be paired off with this other picture, where the scarecrow is all happy cause he took his medecine. Whew.
2) I found a rusty-green-coloured Froot Loop in my cereal bowl this morning. I ate it. If you haven't heard from me in a week, send an ambulance.
3) The photo on today's cover of Metro Today features quite plainly a man with his arm around another man's shoulders. They're not the subject of the photo. I really appreciated the casual quality of it. What this photo says to me is, "This is normal." My enjoyment of this photo also reminds me of how ridiculous it is that gays are generally not thought of as a normal part of this world.
