For a lack of a better reason to post; Or perhaps for just a lack of a reason to post (aside from my alleged blogging addiction), so withour further delay today's post is:





Today's Event And Lesson Log:

• Mostly everyone at work is a Trekkie. This stunning fact was revealed by the T-Shirt I wore on casual Friday with Spock as you see him here splayed across it. Some criticisms and comments received; "You know, Spock only ever did that with his right hand, I know because I'm left handed, but excellent shirt."; "I don't know whether to love or hate your shirt, I love spoke, but I hate blue." My rebuttal - "Aren't you Italian, and even Spock wears blue."
  
  
• Never place wagers with people you don't know very well. I placed what was supposed to be a friendly wager on the curling Game between Canada and Finland. Good fun right? Wrong! Canada won, unfortunately, the result of the twisted and confusing terms of the bet are that I have to boast a mustache next week end and the other person's hair has to turn red.
  
  
• My latest Ambition: To become a Champion Biathlete. My Nordic Track Pro Skier is on Order :) Of course, there is one small problem with my plan to compete in Vancouver (aside from the fact that I haven't raced in cross country skiing in 5 years). I don't have a leotard, as was pointed out by a Large gentleman wearing a USAF jumpsuit behind us while in lineup to have our sandwiches made. I suppose the fact that I've never shot a gun may also be a potentional problem - but I play alot of video games, it can't be that different.
  
  
• Don't get into a conversation about form fitting clothing with someone you barely know, who is in better shape that you. Instead of smiling, acknowledging the USAF branded eavesdropper's comment and continuing on telling my plan to become a Champion Biathlete, I engaged him directly. We talked about leotards, I talked about my running spandex, and then the conversation turned "gay" in the words of witnesses. (I'll stop here, in case my parents read this - plus additional details aren't really needed). Just don't do it.
  
  
• $500 Dollars of Art is Quite a lot of Art - specifically, it's quite a lot of Henri Matisse. I fear I may have been over zealous in an attempt to put the finishing touches on my Bachelor Pad. I may have instead created an Art Gallery - Picasso, Van Gogh, Rothko, and Matisse. And Imagine, that's only half of What I wanted to spend. [The rest is buying my Nordic Track =) ]
  
  
  

I'll post later what lessons are learned from tonite's binge drinking with co-workers.
