So I went to my bank today and it was empty there save for 2 girls behind the counter and the manager on the floor. They all know me there... and it's always friendly, chit chat, etc. Anyway... both girls are looking at me and I hesitate for a second thinking which one do I go to, they are both about 10 feet away. One is attractive, the other not so much. Then they both say "pick me, pick me!" and the manager steps over and she half jokingly says "how about I flip a coin"... and she points at the semi hottie and says "you get heads with her" and then points to the semi NOTtie and says,"you get tails with her." Oh. My. Goodness. For those of you that know me... I'll shamelessly comment on just about anything if I have an audience in front of me and the opportunity for a laugh or uncomfortable embarrassment from someone. Not to mention I'm trying to get out of convention mode this week so I still have a stockpile of smartass and sexually harrassing replies. But damn... this is my bank. Needless to say the first thing that popped in my mind was, "Ya know... I would actually prefer heads from HER and then some tails from HER." But I bit my tongue and resisted the urge and instead smirked and said "No comment." And sadly, I don't think the sexual innuendo registered with any of them! -------------------------------------------------------------------- THE FINAL WORD: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Another long issue in the can - it always amazes me that every week I can find great business, tech and other threads that can create a newsletter this big. That low signal to noise ratio is all thanks to you. Keep making Netpond a great and profitable place to be! =THE NETPOND STAFF= |
