So...

My boss walks up to me and says, "What's this?" He then proceeds to hand me a 128 mb thumb drive that he got as a freebie in the mail from Business Week.

I then proceed to take half an hour to explain to him what it is and what you can do with it but I don't think he understood a singe thing I said.

Ever talk to someone and you swear all they hear is the trombone sound from the Peanuts cartoons? That is exactly what our conversation looked like.

Only having one should be outlawed, but no more than three. It's not like we need farmhands tending crops and ish.

My sister and I were REALLY close to purchasing a condo on the mountain up there about ten years ago. It looked like we had the opportunity to make some real money with it, too. In the end, we decided not to do it.

It probably was a good idea but we would have had to sold it at the top of the market. We'd be pooched if we owned it now.

The Steelers are like the mob. When you sign that contract you are there for life, unless you want a bigger cut. Then they make you disappear. There aren't many that leave, but of those only a few do very well.
