This week when the DOW fell below 8000, I sent a buddy of mine (whom I work with) a text message. A couple hours later, I went to work, conducted roll call and everyone hit the streets. I sat in my office a second, pulled out my phone and typed, "I have only been gone an hour and somehow I already miss you!"

Soon as I hit the "SEND" key, I realized I just sent that message to my buddy instead of my wife as intended.........

 

Oops!

 

yea, right, it was meant for your buddy and you are lucky you didnt sent it to your wifes best friend

 

Can't think of anything right now, but something should happen any time now

That is funny! There is nothing better than a person that can laugh at themselves!

 

I sent "I love you madly" to a co-worker by accident not to long ago rather than my fiancee. Still haven't lived it down. Probably because I work for the Boy Scouts.

More recently though I left my garage door in the city open all day while I was gone. A less honest person could've had their pic of Craftsman and Snap-On tools, a brand new intercooler, etc... Its only funny because it was all still there.

 

Awww...that was sooo sweet, I think I just got a cavity...

 

I came into work today.... NOBODY is here.

 

I daily walk into a room, and stand there wondering what I'm there for Usually comes to me in a few moments, but sometimes I need to go back where I came from to remember what I was going for

Getting old, such an adventure

Okay, here is a classic!!!

Today, I stopped at what has must be the BEST little bar in St. Louis (Dry Dock) and the great looking gal that was working behind the bar was telling us that she and her fiance were going to Scottsdale, AZ next week. He was going to be playing golf with buddies.

One of the guys at the bar asked, "What are you going to do while Craig is plaing golf?" Without missing a beat, she said "Well, laying at the beach! What else would I be doing!"

I almost had my beverage come up through my nose!!

 

My brother recently had to transfer to Tucson for work. He had tried to get transfered to another location but none of them worked out. He was telling us the standard joke at his employer is that Tucson is a great place to work due to the fact it has LOTS of beachfront property. The beach just goes on and on and on......

Maybe she got a tour brochure from my brother's company (and, no, they aren't a tour/travel company).

 

Mishka,

First off, nice meeting you and your wife today, secondly, an update on the geographically compromised bar-maid friend of mine.

Turns out that she was so pi**ed at her boyfriend for not telling her the Gulf Of Mexico did not boarder Arizona, she did not go with him!

If she were not so darn cute...................

 

Good meeting you too, and thanks for bringing the filter just in case.

Be careful, you gotta watch those "so darn cute" ones.

 

Hello:

Well ,I was doing pretty good with out pullling a stupid stunt,till I went to Mexico for our 25th wedding anniversary. Rented a scooter ---Mistake






did not have any broken bones nor did I need stitches. I did really do a number on my St Louis Final 4 T-shirt .My wife was on the back & she was in perfect shape just a small 2" scratch the did not bleed. Yes I did have on a helmet.

Should of rented the
Jeep!

 

Yikes Glad you & your wife are ok I have one of those shirts, too

Most dumb things one can do to oneself, are proceeded by the words; Hold my beer and watch this

I always though it started with, "Hey ya'll, watch this!".

 

I don't remember what movie this line was in, but it is among my favorites!

"You look like you are about to do something stupid. Count me in!"

 

a couple of weeks ago, we were hosting a get-together for a prospective employee for my girlfriends work. I have a tall shelf in the garage where my collection of beer coolers live, and my motorcycle sits below. Rather than grabbing a step stool to get the top cooler, I foolishly rushed and thought, "i'll just knock them off balance and catch the top one when it falls." Bad Choice. The top one fell, along with a second one and planted a nice big dent in my motorcycle's gas tank!

Moral of the story: Rushing ANY task is a bad idea (and is usually out of character for me anyway).

 

"dent in my motorcycle's gas tank!"



That is horrible! Been there, done that. That tank has pretty thick metal and will cost you a couple bills to get it fixed!

Man, I remember that day............
