Final Fantasy was AWESOME! The animation it definitely ground breaking. I mean, you can see emotions in their faces and see the wind blow in their hair. Movement is much more fluid that standard animation and several times you’ll find yourself wondering if it’s real (or if it’s Memorex). I mean, WOW! The story has enough body to keep you going without being bored and did I mention that it LOOKS GREAT? Go!

Camping this weekend! I’m working until 1:30 but I haven’t really done anything all day. The server went down last night so the phone reports are all messed up, meaning that I can’t crunch numbers all morning like usual. Yeah, I’m real broken up about that. If I play my cards right, I’ll be able to pass all my work off on someone else and skate out the door.

We’re whitewater rafting the 3rd week of August and starting to make solid plans. I’d forgotten that we had to be out of there on Saturday, so now it’s looking like I’ll have to use more vacation time than I’d bargained for. Oh well, I’m really looking forward to rafting and exploring that whole area. Last summer we didn’t get a chance to see Moxy Falls or go kayaking on the lake. It’s really a beautiful place that makes me feel peaceful. There’s still time left in the summer if anyone is interested in heading up there. Let me know!

Some laughs to hold you over until I return on Monday. Have a great weekend everyone!

This joke sponsored by BazarJ:

A man walks into a bar one night. He goes up to the bar and asks for a beer. "Certainly, sir, that'll be 1 cent."
"ONE CENT!" exclaimed the guy.
The barman replied "Yes."
So the guy glances over at the menu, and he asks "Could I have a nice juicy T-bone steak, with chips, peas, and a fried egg?"
"Certainly, sir," replies the bartender, “but all that comes to real money."
"How much money?" inquires the guy.
"4 cents," he replies.
"FOUR cents!" exclaims the guy. "Where's the Guy who owns this place?"
The barman replies, "Upstairs with my wife."
The guy says, "What's he doing with your wife?"
The bartender replies, "Same as I'm doing to his business."

HOW DO THESE PEOPLE SURVIVE?

Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets. "We don't have half dozen nuggets", said the teenager at the counter. "You don't?" I replied. "We only have six, nine, or twelve," was the reply. "So I can't order a half-dozen nuggets, but I can order six?"
"That's right."

So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets.

The paragraph above doesn't amaze me because of what happened a couple of months ago: I was checking out at the local Foodland with just a few items and the lady
behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I picked up one of those "Dividers" that they keep by the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get mixed.

After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the "Divider" looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it. Not finding the bar code she said to me "Do you know how much this is?" and I said to her "I've changed my mind, I don't think I'll buy
that today". She said "OK" and I paid her for the things and left.

She had no clue to what had just happened...

Several years ago, we had an intern who was none too swift. One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, "I'm almost out of typing paper. What do I do?" "Just use copier machine paper," the secretary told her. With that, the intern took her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five hundred “blank" copies.
