Way to go, Dilbert. abmann December 15 2005, 14:17:30 UTC

You should hire burly wo/men to just lift everything and move it the three feet all at once. It gives you an excuse to submit an expense reimbursement to work with the word "burly" on it. These opportunities do not occur every day.

Do you suppose I could get by on tortilla chips? I've already got those, see.

I suppose that you'll also be replacing Tetris with Minesweeper?

control_group December 15 2005, 15:41:23 UTC

Nah, Minesweeper is _guy_incognito's game.

doom3 is damn scary.

Re: UNRELATED: control_group December 15 2005, 17:46:29 UTC

Yes.
