Good Morning CGs!
Started out with a little breakfast change this morning. Diced ham with scrambled eggs. Not bad. A little change is good every once in a while. Well, today is it for work and then the weekend off. My dad got in last night so we spent a little time, he'll get to play with the baby all day until I get home from work. After that I don't know what the plans are. What's on the agenda for everyone else? Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |

Don't forget it's joke day, post 'em if you got 'em....
As we men age, we tend to end up seeing more and more of the medical establishment. For example, my family doctor recently referred me to a female urologist. I saw her yesterday and she is gorgeous. She's beautiful and unbelievably sexy. She told me that I must stop masturbating. I asked her why and she said, "Because I'm trying to examine you..." |

So anyway.....
I'm going down to the hospital to get a chest x-ray. COPD. I guess 40 years of smoking can have a little effect on breathing. They said I can just walk in. Let's see how that works out. I'm out sick till next Wednesday then I go back for two weeks and then I'm just about done with this career. After the first of the year I'll start a nice long vacation, except for my projects around the house and my honey-do list. Not sure what I'll get accomplished the rest of the day but I'm sure I'll do something. I always do. |

LMAO!
Just another day in paradise here. At least there will be no mosquitoes for another 6 months. A distraught man was standing on the railing of a high bridge getting ready to jump off, when he happened to look down and see a little man with no arms dancing all around on the river bank. He thought to himself, 'life isn't so bad after all', and got off the railing. He then walked down to the river bank to thank the little man for saving his life. "Thank you," he said. "I was going to jump off that bridge and kill myself, but when I saw you dancing even though you have no arms, I changed my mind." "I am not dancing," the armless man replied bitterly. "My ass itches, and I can't scratch it!" |

Yeah, I've been smoking for about 40 years, too - one of the few things I'm good at.

Good morning, Gurus. Well, I guess it's crept past noon for some of you!
Tommy, does this mean you're retiring? Hope the lungs aren't too bad. In lieu of a joke, here's today's word of the day. **************** Word of the Day for Thursday, December 11, 2008 ablaut \ABH-lout\, noun: the systematic substitution of one root vowel sound for another in different inflectional forms or derivatives of a word, as in ring, rang, rung |

I'm ablaut ready for lunch.
Smoking has got to be the least rational habit on the planet. "Here, set these leaves on fire and suck it in." It killed both my parents and my father-in-law, but I still do it. My brother claimed that smoking created an environment that was inhospitable to germs, so he never got sick. Until he quit - a few years later, Alzheimer's killed him. When my grandfather was 80, he asked his doctor if he should quit smoking. The doctor replied, "Why?" When I was a kid, everybody smoked, even in grocery stores. Fred Flintstone sold Winstons. Times have changed a bit. |

Ya T. I'm retiring on the first of the year.
My grandfathers smoked 2 to 3 packs a day of the unfilterd coffin nails and they both lived to 68 which was about right for the time. I smoke about a pack a day of filtered lights. I'm hoping to be good to at least 72. If my wife ever leaves me or dies I'm starting up all my bad habits again. ablaut da da dats wha I'm talkin ablaut. |

Good Day Gurus!
Got one of those clients that really pisses me off. Too long of a story to tell, but I just wanna choke her. Blah! Wouldn't this world be great if there weren't any idiots in it? But I would really miss my kids if I disappeared... HAR! I spent the morning packing up small stuff in my office, and putting it in the van for the ride home. Next Friday is my last day, and I need to have everything outta here by then, coz I won't have access to the company van and free gas after that. I found out just yesterday that I get to take home about $20,000 worth of video gear and furniture for about $6,500. The even cooler part is that I can make small monthly payments on that balance. Pretty cool. I get to keep my new-ish High Def. Camera, the edit software and computer, even my most favorite office chair I ever sat in! I've already got clients lined up for when I leave, and one is interested in me handling his media placement. I don't do that currently, as I just make the commercials, but I'm willing to learn. Might as well be my own ad agency. I can already do the hard part. Well, back to the grind. Peace out! And have a super day everyone! |

Wow, retiring. Congrats!
Your time will be your own! I guess, unless your honey-do list gets too long. =) My grandfather spoked Marlboro Reds. The day he was diagnosed with emphysema he quit. He was on oxygen for a while, and actually improved his health. He has since passed on (several years after that Dx), but I was pretty impressed that he could quit like that. |

Wow, that sounds like a great deal, Chris. And I think being your own full agency sounds like a great idea! Even if you don't end up doing that part of it full time, you'll learn the process of media placement and who the contacts are. That can't hurt!

I'm thinking of a new program for smokers where you take them in and a doctor gives them a false diagnosis to scare the shit outta them. I'd pay for that. My dad smoked marlboro reds. When the prices went up, his solution was to buy cheaper cigarettes. At least smoking saves him money on food. |
