What I wish I could put up on my job sites

Found this surfing. Suppose to be from Australia. I like the no nonsense approach.

If that sign is in Australia, I have a hunch somebody did some photo shop editing of that particular four-letter word. Down under, the term "Muck it up" is fairly coming for -- well --you know. Changing the M to an F would have been easy for the guy posting it.

Then again, those Aussies are very no-nonsense people.

Okay, the Cornish Pixie has sent me another of his master collections of photographs from around the world, some of which I admit I found rather lovely, and many of which would make nice desktop images. For those of you not au fait with how to do it, simply right-click on the image and select "set as desktop" or whatever it is you windows users have in your menus.

The look on their faces reflects how they feel after finding out that while we were playing War, I had used the same ace 5 times in a row without them knowing. It wasn't until EJ said "You just played that ace" that I told them I had been playing it for a while!

Love it!

Failed a final inspection the other day because one of the door swings on a closet didn't match the approved drawings. BLOOD BOILING, I called the inspector's chief and he straightened it out. We ought to let the government build the damn houses since they're the only ones who seem to know how it ought to be done right.

Oooh ouch. I saw that in the news. A zoo keeper or vet in Taiwan had his arm ripped off. They did retrieve it and reattached it. He should regain most of the functions of that hand.

I forgot where I found this picture. I thought it's funny.
