Had a single beer on your lunch break, wearing a company T-shirt, in a sports bar, and then walked over to say hello to a co-worker, only to find yourself looking for a job on a Tuesday afternoon?
God, I hate Southern California. Four more months.
Have you ever...?

And then bitched about it on an online message board, went and picked up your last check, walked down the street, and got hired on at a better job?AntonArkydivich wrote:Had a single beer on your lunch break, wearing a company T-shirt, in a sports bar, and then walked over to say hello to a co-worker, only to find yourself looking for a job on a Tuesday afternoon?...
God looks after fools, drunks, and little children; I happen to be two of the three.
A drink to Ol' Saint Buk tonight.

Cheers to that, and no harshing on the SoCal. We aren't buried in snow. I'll drink to that.AntonArkydivich wrote:...went and picked up your last check, walked down the street, and got hired on at a better job?

Re: Have you ever...?
It is also the idea that when you announce your fealty to the God Bacchus on such a message board,
such a thing may invite benevolence form powers higher than the likes of us. Who knows what plans our gods have for us? Perhaps it is to not get stuck in a cubicle, but, instead, to taste every dish offered on the banquet table, and every liquor.
Indeed, you appear to be an explorer. You and your Lady have traveled far and wide, and deep.
Simple equation here: You found that your newly former employment was not conducive to your joy of life, in enjoying your free time, an hour as it was for lunchtime. Booooo to the shallow of mind! Let them wallow in their tiny morsel of power. That may be all that they have for themselves, glued to the television for the kardassians afterwork.
Add that to your wanderlust, perhaps wunderlust, or be it wonderlust?
Cheers to your new gain.
The equation summarizes to this:
You welcome the closing of a door, to find an new one open. Your explorer spirit appears to be well received by our Lord Bacchus.
This thing about you will serve you well.
DRINK! EXPLORE!

Ah, so true. Some great boozer with a writing problem (I think Hemingway) once said, any man who hates where he is from is not worth listening to. You were too gentle with your chastising, and I too rash with my detracting.booznik wrote:Cheers to that, and no harshing on the SoCal. We aren't buried in snow.

And God bless ya, mista willies. Your words give wings to the soul.

So true. I always paraphrased that as "and I am two out of three. Ask my wife and she'll say I'm three for three."AntonArkydivich wrote:God looks after fools, drunks, and little children; I happen to be two of the three.

Always wondered what Jesus`s tenth fault was, here we have it: he closed the door on Bacchus by proclaiming the "one and only".mistah willies wrote: You welcome the closing of a door, to find an new one open. Your explorer spirit appears to be well received by our Lord Bacchus.
Silly right?!

At least we can draw images of our god with our urine, on the wall or the street. he would smile, not strap explosives on babies.oettinger wrote: Always wondered what Jesus`s tenth fault was, here we have it: he closed the door on Bacchus by proclaiming the "one and only".
