That's it- You are in for some "Un"voluntary Overtime next week when you go back to work. and it will be unpaid aswell.

As a Kodak shareholder- this can be arranged.:innocent:

Good one though:thumb::thumb:

That's really too bad. There were a good many of us sincerely wishing your "story" was true.

Why the extra thread to point out what was said in the other thread?

Probably to rub you the wrong way. :D

Apparently it worked, eh?

No, seriously though... I honestly don't get why the additional thread was somehow needed.

I swallowed it, hook, line, and sinker.

Now I'm depressed. It kind of sucks.

Anyway, for personal reasons I buy a lottery ticket every ten years. Never won a dime. I thought maybe I should give it a try. My pension plan could use it.

Edit- the above is clear as mud. I almost never buy lottery tickets because I've been lucky enough to receive everything a man could want, as long as he doesn't want millions of dollars.

As always, the ShelBroCo company Got their April Fools day joke (http://sheldonbrown.com/bike-share.html) down right.

I still have not tried Product W (http://sheldonbrown.com/w.html) though.
