I don't know if this is true, but it's funny...
Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:
* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year
Can you guess which organization this is?
Give up yet?
It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.

Reason I will never be a member of the US Congress: I am, apparently, grossly over-qualified. |

Good ol' Snopes. It was a posting, I guess it's not so funny if it's not remotely true. I shoulda' looked their first. Maybe it's telling enough that it's believable.

that was quite a brawl, glad I don't talk about politics

Yup. If only people were intelligent and mature enough to discuss it like adults. |

which leads me to once again ask the Canadians on the forum, may I please be given Canadian citizenship? Anybody interested in adopting me or sponsoring me?
I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics |

Hahahaha, seriously this thread has turned out much more funny than I could've hoped. I seriously laughed out loud. Those who know me best know that I _never_ laugh. How dare you!
I guess that every admin at some point must post this farce. Job descriptions being what they are.

That's okay - we can hold him down and tickle him till he does.
You want it all but you can't have it.

Did I mention my perpensity to dissipate volumous gas clouds whose composition is largely methane based?
I was one of those kids who wept uncontrollably from being tickled. Sometimes for weeks. All I could think was, "Here I am, supposed to be laughing, when there's people starving in <third world country x>."
I've now grown into an adult that enjoys making up ridiculous stories about himself.

Oh yeah, NO2 is fine. I, you know, am credited with discovering it, after all...

You never would have been able to, if I hadn't discovered nitrogen and oxygen first!

Which, of course, you could never have discovered if I hadn't invented them along with Hydrogen and Einsteinium.

But what about calcium? You didn't invent THAT, did you?

Well, this is a paradox, isn't it? Isn't DNA made of some of those elements that we've been claiming to have invented? But if we couldn't have existed without said DNA, how could we have invented those elements?

For the love of God. It's not true!!!!
Somebody made up the numbers almost 10 years ago. It wasn't true then, and it's still not true. |
