Ok… because I’m too tired to be creative, I am stealing a recent post from In Passing. If you don’t read this site regularly– What’s wrong with you?
So, here you go:
“L-o-u-i-s-i-a-n-a.”
“Where’s the ‘w’ in it, then?”
“I’m thinking you should re-think applying.”

how could I not post this? It features my favorite word… entropy.
“There are so many people working on solving small problems. I figure if we all worked together to solve a big one, the little ones would just fall into place.”
“And I still think it’s ridiculous.”
“I’m not talking about defeating entropy, I’m talking about making it our bitch.”

Sometimes… I write the funny email. Usually when I need coffee.
MEMO TO: THE MUSE IZ
FROM: METREON (THE VOICE OF GOD FOR YOU NEW RECRUITS)
MUSE IZ, WE ARE NOT PLEASED! YOU CALL YOURSELF A MUSE? WE ARE LOOKING DOWN AND WE SEE THAT YOUR POOR ARTIST IS STARING BLANKLY AT HER SCREEN …(gasp) DROOLING NO LESS. THIS IS “HOLY” UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR ON YOUR PART. FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE, HUMAN, PLEASE REFER TO YOUR STANDARD ISSUED MANUAL “BEING A MUSE, EVEN A MERE MORTAL CAN DO IT!”… (SEE PG 48, “KEEPING THEM ON TRACK AND HYDRATED: CORRELATION OR CAUSE AND EFFECT”?) WE EXPECT YOU TO RECTIFY THIS SITUATION IMMEDIATELY
IZ’s response: uh – ok – “GOD” needs a new e-mail address 🙂
This just in: Woman in San Anselmo found drooling at her computer babbling incoherently. She doesn’t seem to be a danger to her surroundings (other than the fact that the world seems to suffer a rapid rate of entropy wherever she goes…) however, she also doesn’t seem to be able to WRITE. While authorities haven’t named a suspect, they are holding her overachieving husband for questioning. It appears the man may have forgotten to give his wife her medication.
IZ’s response: How is this different than normal? LOL 😉
Funny boy.
