"Rock, Paper, Scissors"

I was wandering around a book store today, (something I like to do when I should be cleaning the house, or other such task) when I came across this book.
Now, I never would have believed that there was an actual strategy to playing "Rock, Paper Scissors".

Things not to say...

I thought I would post a few of my ideas about things that really shouldn't be said, or that are said at the wrong time.

You will need some background for this one. I work in a large call centre and so have to listen to a lot of people talking all day long.

Today's thing not to say is:

"I am going to throw this in the garbage and buy [one of your competitors] products instead".

If you say this we are just thinking "Thank God we don't have to talk to you and your moaning again".

Ups and Downs

I got a promotion at work today, so I am happy about that. Thing is though, I will be making less money. Strange how things like that work isn't it.

Bird on a wire

Took this last year while walking to work. The pictures isn't all that good, but I have since learned how to change the quality of my camera phone. I was told what bird it was, but I forgot now.

So this is my first posting on my new blog. What fun! I haven’t written in an online log for many years, so I am going to start nice and easy.

I called up the government (I know, what a waste of time hey) and when I finally got through the menu system and the phone is answered I hear “*sigh* Thank you for calling…..”

Now is it just me, or is that not how you want your call to start?
