OUCH!!

Word to the wise...

So I was in my office today and thought to myself...Self, I should use some Purell Instant Hand Sanitizer on my hands...and since I have a tiny bottle up on a shelf in my office I did just that. The instructions on the side of the bottle say to put a "thumbnail size drop" as serving size...I thought that may be a little excessive (have you seen my thumbnail?). So needless to say, I put less than that on and started rubbing my hands together briskly as instructed. AND THAT IS WHEN IT HIT ME! OUCH! The fact that I had paper-cut myself just a few hours prior opening mail. WOW! Word to the Wise...DON'T USE hand sanitizer with any open wounds on you hands - It REALLY burns!!

24

Thanks for the help on my last post, you guys are great!

The shredder is doing fine...things have been calm for it the past few days. Feel free to mail me any really sensitive papers that you don't want anyone else to get a hold of and no one else to EVER see...Identity theft is huge these days. I'll shred them faster than you can say "I'll have a Peach Slice Plus please"

24 Days until my Birthday! Somehow I scored 4 tickets to a Salah concert on the 31st other than that I don't have any plans for celebration. Any ideas?

Quick Blog (a.k.a. QB)

You know what I would do? Well, actually lots of things but right now...I would blog more if I knew how to post pictures. Pictures are worth a THOUSAND words...how can I compete with that? It can't be that hard...clearly there are less intelligent bloggers than I, that post pictures on a regular basis (please don't make me name names). I am a man however and it goes against my natural grain to read directions...please don't make me look it up.

Party!

Quick shredder story...I was shredding the other day when all of a sudden the top popped off and it stopped working! Apparently that is what happens when it gets too full! Some sort of new-fangled "safety" feature I guess! Don't worry, the problem is fixed now...I emptied it out...Though there are lessons to be learned from this as well. 1) Keep an eye on the fill level gauge on the side of shredder so you're not surprised if (who am I kidding...when) the top pops off again. 2) It's not as easy as it sounds NOT to make a giant mess trasferring the worlds smallest paper shred's from the shredder can into a real trash can...It's kind of like a mix of being at one of the World Series Champion parades when all the ticker-tape is flying around and at a New Year's Eve party when all the streamers and confetti are thrown around (all together and in slow motion)...Good times...

8 HRS. until Winter Camp 2006

Too Good Not to Post...

I heard what follows, last night on the radio and it really hit home for me. Regardless of where you are, we all can grow in this area as we pursue getting closer to God.

"Worship is NOT just something to enjoy as a receiver, It's something you DO as a PARTICIPANT."

"Those who worship publicly - worship privately"

Thank you God for allowing us to worship you and please let us become the people you want us to be.

P.S. Shredder story coming soon!

Coffee anyone?

It has been brought to my attention that our perceived coffee maker numbers needs addressed. "Why do we have 3 coffee makers?" one asked...Well, Dad lent us the 2 decanter Bunn coffee maker, Mom lent us the 35 cup coffee maker for Tailgate Tommy's football booth 1 / Tailgate Tommy's purchased the other 35 cup coffee maker for football booth 2, Smoothie King got the 10-cup maker for FREE with office supplies purchase. So if you're a math wizz you have concluded we have more than 3, we have current access to 4 coffee makers but we don't really HAVE them all. Make sense? If anyone would like to borrow a coffee maker for a coffee party etc. just let me know...I can likely hook you up on a Java maker or two. HOWEVER, the 10-cupper is still in the box and has never been used which makes it eligible for re-gifting at anytimeÂ…When is your birthday? For the record...Smoothie King does have coffee smoothies that are very tasty but we do not brew any of our own coffee on site. Good day!
