WHEN YOU TALK IN CAPS AND SPEAK WITH SLANG THAT MAKES YOU SOUND IGNORANT, YOU INVOKE EYE SEIZURES TO EVERYONE ON THIS SITE AND MAKE YOURSELF LOOK LIKE A FOOL. Please grow up, Troll.

Sales, actually. It does suck, but we are on a rotating holiday schedule, so the next one - *fingers crossed for Labor Day* - I am hoping to be off. I agree about this year being more special. It could have turned into a four-day weekend, but now its a two-beer night with an ephermal stay at a firework show.

Count me in. And, a 9-hr shift.

I strongly believe everyone should share as many photos as possible of others dressed up as Uncle Sam tomorrow. Thoughts, Tom?

His home-run calls will still be in Taiwanese, oddly enough.

Just shot you an e-mail. 100 percent positive we can keep tabs on Kaner this summer in Buffalo. I could have put him into a "Doink" power slam where I saw him last night, and he would have never known. Trying for photos...

Nothing says third-world country like Werewolf disease

That's foul.

Consider them the Ally apart from the Axis of Power apparently known as the US.

Bad post, bad post. I am color blind!

I think they are all skewed in this seemingly Socialist country we live in. By the way, bathroom breaks are frowned upon, too. Watch your choice of spicy/caffeinated drinks in the morning, unless you plan on wearing a diaper.

Good point, Eric. Just got out of a job where I never had any vacation and was a manager. I put in 8,100 hours in under 2 years, so it has been tempting to take off now, especially since I am in a more laid-back company. But, you are right.

Talking about the summer time. So much to do, so little time...as to why I was thinking of calling off. It's tempting, so just wanted to get a perspective on it.

You are not crazy. It's sick to think how many 25-year-olds - I'll be 26 in September - do not even know how to knot a tie. Those are the kids that will have Tap-Out T-Shirt weddings with a stripper who has "a really good heart."

That's a good point. On probation for another 30 days. It's just that everyone in America slams everything worth of importance within a 3-month span.

Not sure why my text didn't save, but now that I look like a fool...question: How soon can you call in "sick" after starting a new job? I mean, what is acceptable?

I honestly think it depends what demeanor you bring to the table. If you are an extrovert, and considerably open-minded, you might take it lightly. But, if you are an introvert and exceptionally guarded of even your own actions, that other parent can probably expect a death stare and cuss-filled reply.

Winner, winner...now go cut that chicken's head off so we can have dinner.
