MIXING THINGS UP!

This is just a bit of a teaser of what I'll be posting later tonight. In the meantime, if you think you know what this means, or what it's related to let me know and you could win a $500 gift certificate*


*What I mean is, you could win the gift certificate if I offered one, which I'm not. But guess anyway, just for the fun of it! See you later tonight...be here or be square!

LAUGH AT THIS....

THE NEW BOSS


If you've ever worked for a boss that reacts before getting the facts and thinking things through, you will love this!

A large company, feeling it was time for a shakeup, hired a new CEO. The new boss was determined to rid the company of all slackers.

On a tour of the facilities, the CEO noticed a guy leaning on a wall.
The room was full of workers and he wanted to let them know that he meant business.

He walked up to the guy leaning against the wall and asked, "How much money do you make a week?"

A little surprised, the young man looked at him and replied, "I make $400 a week. Why?"

The CEO then handed the guy $1,600 in cash and screamed, "Here's four weeks' pay, now GET OUT and don't come back."

Feeling pretty good about himself, the CEO looked around the room and asked, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-ball did here?"

From across the room came a voice,
"Pizza delivery guy from Domino's."

Then there's this tidbit:

And this gem:
My thanks to my former co-workers, who risk losing their jobs as Public Servants to send me this kind of stuff.

TROUBLE FOR TROUBLE

In court papers unsealed today, Manhattan surrogate court judge, Renee Roth reduced Trouble's inheritance from 12 million dollars to 2 million. Who's trouble?
This is Trouble....the bereaved surviving dog with his late mistress, Leona Helmsley.
Leona Helmsley, also known as the Queen of Mean, left Trouble the 12 million, while two of her grandchildren got nothing, because Trouble was the only living creature that showed her any affection.
She had originally requested in her will that either her brother of one of her two grandchildren care for Trouble, they declined. Trouble currently resides with the manager of the
Helmsley Sandcastle Hotel in Sarasota Florida. Trouble's annual expenses are $190,000, including a $60,000 guardian fee, $100,00 for round-the-clock security, $8,000 for grooming, $3,000 for miscellaneous expenses, $1,200 for food, which is high considering this breed is known to eat their own poop. This fact has been routinely documented, and medical expenses anywhere from $2,500 to $18,000.

I thought the $100,000 was pretty high for security because won't a leash pretty much keep the dog in check? Well, it seems Trouble has had some death threats.

So the grandkids petition the court saying Grandma L is incompetent which is not the same as incontinent, and didn't know what she was doing. Judge Renee Roth overturned Leona's wishes and reduced the award to $2 million, and dispersing $6 million between the two grandchildren.

My question to you, wise and intelligent readers, is this fair? Was Trouble given the shaft? Or do you think the grandchildren were within their greedy rights?
