If you're asking whether I'm in the habit of making deliberate misteaks
in the hope of drawing attention, the answer is: No.

I had, for reasons unknown, confused the asterisk with the hero of
French picture books for children.  I wasn't trying to be cute, I
had just been struck temporarily stupid.

Nameless dread: Wondering if "Asterix" was French at all.  Maybe
German?  Nah, I'am almost sure it was French.

I moved to the other end of the room, where the air-conditioning units just
about managed to cover the noise of Chris's impersonal stereo. The workstation

Part of the problem is that, years ago, Massachusetts had the
unique law that drivers *entering* the rotary had the right
of way.  The law was changed to be consistent with the rest
of the states about 10 years ago.

In true Massachusetts fashion, drivers figure that, in the
face of this change in the law, that the law doesnt really
matter much anyway, and to about things in an "every man
for himself" way.

!Peeve:  While Mass has the highest number of car accidents
per captia, it has the lowest number of fatalities.

ObPeeve:  Mass law requires a police officer to the present
at *all* road construction/repair sites.  In other words,
there are no kids with orange vests and stop/go hand signs
in this state.  While the idea of the law is "public safety"
the real reason is the power of police unions.  The cops 
spend most of the time looking in trenches and talking to
bulldozer drivers.

Okay, so the subject line is uninspired.

Can it be any coincidence that, on average, the most stupid
people who come to my office are faculty members of either
Social Work or Management?

I mean really...Is it any surprize that the world is on the

and perpetuated a fast-hardening stereotype:

"Where is my printout"

"I have no idea"

Don't you work here?

"yes"

"then..."

"I print off 260lbs of paper a day. I don't store it all in
my head. If you have forgotten your box number, this is
*your* problem"

This refugee from natural selection then stood and stared at
the rank of pigeonholes along the wall, and incredibly,
*began to search through the boxes, one by one*. There are 
300 boxes. Each one stuffed with printouts.

He is still searching. Requesting another print would have taken
maybe 5 minutes, tops.

Management. Feh.

For linguistic and historical reasons, and because Scandinavians in

sees as "logical".  It can't be the seperated-by-water business i

Date: 8 Oct 92 21:26:53 GMT

So I give my wife, The Goddess, Carte Blanche (Mastercard actually)
to go out and get a new set of tires on her car. I usually do the
Manly Thing (tm) and buy the tires, but work has been busy and she
has more time. I suggested the time honored Goodyear Eagle Radials
(Oh yea a manly tire) because I have never have had a problem with them.
She goes to one of those tire discount stores and gets talked into 
a set of tires that has lesser temperature AND traction ratings than the
Goodyears (I was too depressed to compare the treadware ratings) and paid only
$10.00 less per tire for them. These guys just sense when a woman walks through
the door. And get this . The name on the tire is...



				HANKOOK



No typo there. Hankook radials. 

Let's review. What have we learned.

	1-Men buy brand names for only 3 items; beer, condoms and tires.
	2-Women buy brand names for only those items that they arwe intimately
	  associated with.
	3-My wife, lovable as she is, has no brain.

It's a 12 gauge round that, instead of firing a wad of pellets or a slug,
sends a 40 or so foot jet of flame out of the front of your shotgun.
I agree, it does sound like a novel way to destroy a clay pigeon (or an
out-of-control politician).  However, the ad says specifically that they
won't sell it in 3 or 4 states, among them California and Iowa (sorry
Dan).

So, I don't have any Dragon's Breath, although I do have a couple bird
bombs, cherry bombs that are thrown about 40 yards from the shotgun...

I love it!

I attended an Air Force school for several months, since we didn't have a
version of this particular program of our own.  This was culture shock on
numerous levels, but one thing I noticed right off is that the Air Force,
like the Army, has a disproportionate number of Southerners as members.
Why this is, I don't know, but it's undeniable.  

Anyway.  One byproduct of having lots o'Southerners around is that there'll
be a certain nontrivial number of fundies sprinkled among the crowd.  After
all, they don't call it the Bible Belt for nothing.  Anyway, this phenom-
enon was punctuated by the way I used to find those little Chick's fundy
comic books lying around.  You know, those astoundingly simpleminded yet
somehow hilarious little rectangular tracts that fundamentalist Xtians leave 
in weird places to be found by others, hopefully leading to the salvation
of their eternal souls.  I used to find them lying on top of the urinals
in the men's room and in random other places.

It amazed me then, and does to this day, that anyone could be so simple as
to take that sort of thing seriously, and expect others to do the same.
But then, I agree completely with what Scott Chasse wrote about religion,
so that's not entirely surprising.  I tend to suspect that anyone who'd
experience spiritual awakening as the result of a comic book is a taco 
short of a combination plate.

One of my treasured posessions is a copy of the early-Seventies issue of 
National Lampoon featuring Son O'God Comics.  This is without a doubt one
of the finest things they ever published, even against the backdrop of 
lots of other superior stuff from that period -- undeniably the magazine's
heyday.  The hero was a nerdy guy named Benny David Nebbish, who'd transform
himself into Jesus by yelling "JEE-ZUZ!"  ("He takes the name, but not in
vain!") and go forth to do battle with the forces of darkness, in this case
the Catholic Church and its plans for global spiritual hegemony.

	This, of course is the problem. A lot of stockholders don't give
a rat's ass about the long term profitability of a company. They want the
increased dividends right now and don't care how management gets it done.
This leaves management with a tough choice: A) piss off the stockholders
and cost themselves a lot of money or B) drive the company into the ground
and then move on to another. I would say that the problem is that management
IS serving the stockholders by giving them what they want, not necessarily 
what is good for them.
