You know, EJ, sometimes I'm pretty convinced you're just padding your post total. ;-)

Oops!, Now I'm doing it!

[aimo]

within reach:
less than half of my 20-oz cup of coffee
3 tic tacs
listerine citrus pocket mist

I must be concerned about coffee breath.


But my office fridge is but a short chair-roll away, packed with Lean Cuisine paninis, string cheese, and yoplait yogurts. And a jello pudding cup.

No, no, no. All of this has a purpose Alteran. Trust me. Haven't you noticed the common themes? I will have a pleasent surprise for all fellow DBRsters come November 1st. Consider it a "look back at the offseason" kind of thing.

I'm scheming. I'm scheming.

I have a pencil(s) handy - Being organic, I think you can eat one (except for the metal part) with no ill effects. Otherwise, I just finished a Diet Coke.

[TillyGalore]

On the desk is an almost empty glass of water. In my lunch bag I have a turkey sandwich, yogurt with granola and fresh strawberries, peanut butter granola bars, and small bag of baked cheetos. And, in my desk drawer I have popcorn, half a bag of cheerios, and mints.

Hmmm, am a little hungry now.

EarlJam, can't wait to see what is in store for us on Nov 1. Should I mark my calendar?

You should come down for your date with Earljam.

(I will chaperone, if you request...)

Tempting, very tempting.

[knights68]

No refreshing beverages?

Silly me.
Semi-sweet tea and a soft drink (Pepsi)

[Shammrog]

Tempting, very tempting.

Which one?

(The date itself, or me chaperoning?)

[TillyGalore]

Which one?

(The date itself, or me chaperoning?)

Any girl would be lucky to be seen with two such fine upstanding southern gentlemen.

[EarlJam]

Tempting, very tempting.

I will put it all out there, risk rejection, humiliation and go on the record to say I would welcome a date/friendly get together with TillyGalore.

Awww, you made my day. :D :D

[Moose]

Do 20-30 packs of condiments count? Varieties include: Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard, Texas Pete Hot Sauce, Heinz Catchup, Hellmann's Reduced Fat Mayo!

The cafeteria is soooooo far away for someone to go just for some mustard or mayo....

PS - I found an Equal packet! Score!

[Jfrosh]

God, I need to clean out my drawers.
A halloween decorated packet of pretzels
2 Iams Dog treats
Packet of Salteens
1 coldeze cough drop
Empty salt shaker
Empty glass (usually filled with Ice water)

Anything good near my desk gets eaten quickly, its the crap that gets stuck in my drawers.

Altoids, Genmai cha (green tea), claritin (does that count?), and plenty of delicious co-wor..., err, soylent green. ;)

Ever seen Best In Show?


I used to be able to name every nut that there was. And it used to drive my mother crazy, because she used to say, "Harlan Pepper, if you don't stop naming nuts," and the joke was that we lived in Pine Nut, and I think that's what put it in my mind at that point. So she would hear me in the other room, and she'd just start yelling. I'd say, "Peanut. Hazelnut. Cashew nut. Macadamia nut." That was the one that would send her into going crazy. She'd say, "Would you stop naming nuts!" And Hubert used to be able to make the sound, he couldn't talk, but he'd go "rrrawr rrawr" and that sounded like Macadamia nut. Pine nut, which is a nut, but it's also the name of a town. Pistachio nut. Red pistachio nut. Natural, all natural white pistachio nut.

I have so much to say about this one. But you see, last night I was hit with a DBR infraction and must tread carefully. I shall, with great temptation and difficulty, exercise proper restraint.

Why do you have dog treats in your desk?

I get marketers bringing me in all sorts of stuff. They come up with some "catchy theme" like the "Dog Days of Summer" and drop off some nik nac like dog bisquits. I only order products from the ones who bring in chocolate!
