Your What is What? Where?
A co-worker got a pen stuck inside our printer.  He started to try and remove the pen, but I told him we don’t have time for that now.  Just put a note on the printer telling folks not to use it and then report it to the Help Desk.  So, he grabbed a piece of paper and scrawled on it.  I left before he finished the note. About 20 minutes later, one of my techs comes in laughing and says he was just in the lobby, saw a piece of paper on a printer and went to investigate.  The following is what he found.

Texts From the Kid
Yes, the Bingo Whore has spawn.  In fact, he just turned 15 yesterday.  You know how I know for sure that he is my kid?  Take a look at the text messages that went back and forth today: Bingo Whore’s Kid: 3.187 – See if you can figure it out.

Little Noah Biorkman is a typical 5-year-old boy: he loves Christmas.  However, what is atypical for this little guy is that he has been fighting cancer since he was 3 years old.  When it went in

Two Great Scary Movies to Review
My son and I love horror movies.  So, what better way to spend the Halloween weekend than to rent scary movies, turn out the lights and wait for the mayhem to begin?  We decided to try ”Orphan” and “Dorothy Mills“.  You might remember “Orphan” from the creepy kid poster with the words “There’s something wrong with Esther“.  There definitely WAS something wrong with Esther.  It is sort of like “The Good Son” but with a twist that, believe me, you DON’T see coming.  After suffering a miscarriage, a husband and wife decide to adopt an older child from

Surprise! You’re Throwing a Baby Shower!
Have you ever gone to a baby shower where the surprise is that YOU are doing the work instead of the people hosting the shower?  This happened to me almost 2 1/2 years ago when I went up to my husband’s brother’s house over 700 miles away to attend his wife’s baby shower being thrown by my husband’s sister and his mother.  I made the silly mistake of thinking I was a guest.  However, when I showed up, I quickly learned that this was definitely NOT the case.  Like all grand plans laid out by my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, they had planned everything down to the last possible cute detail but hadn’t thought about how long it would ta
