Subject: Its Friday--I'm bored.

Now, by today being Friday I am especially bored here at work. More than the other 4 days of the week. I probably only "work" for 2.5 days in a week, with the bulk of my time on tri gear websites and this forum.
I am getting a little bored refreshing BT all the time today, so can you guys post some work appropriate websites you go to when you have too much time on your hands. (Read: things I won't get in trouble for accessing here at work. Nothing about, or that will make me want to change tires)

Hijacks are welcome, I like a good laugh, but links and/or stories would be nice.

I knew I could count on you to start this, TriComet.  I was gonna do it myself if you didn't get off your butt.  It's not like you're working or anything!

I am so freaking bored and totally do NOT want to be here.  My boss is off today, I have my work all caught up (and done in advance, queen worker bee that I am) in anticipation of my vacation next week - and I have a million and one things I should be / could be doing to get ready to leave for RAGBRAI tomorrow morning.  Instead I am stuck here - whine whine whine - so the least someone can do is entertain me!

Since I work in a research lab I like to look up research articles on http://www.pubmed.com That way if anyone looks over, I look like I am doing research but usually I am researching something sports science related and not related to the research I am doing in the lab.

Changing a tire can get boring though.  Downright tiring sometimes.

That would depend on if you are changing that tire alone or if you have good help

A man goes to his doctor and says "Doc, I have a

problem. My girlfriend is sleeping over this

Friday........ my ex-wife is sleeping over this

Saturday....... and my wife is coming home

Sunday. I need three Viagra pills to satisfy them

all!"

The doctor says, "You know, three Viagra pills

three nights in a row is pretty dangerous for a

man of your age. I will give them to you on

the condition that you return to my office on

Monday so that I can check you out."

The man says "You have a deal, Doc!"

 

On Monday morning the man returns with his arm in

a sling.

The doctor asks "What happened? Why is your arm

damaged?"

 The man answers.......

"None of the girls ever showed up!"

You're welcome, however, I should have started it at 9am when I got bored then.

I'm her evil twin, logged on in her name. Or whats the other name...split personality. Party Comet only comes out once every couple months. She's still recovering from the 4th of July slip n slide incident.

An oldie but a goodie - just for you Tricomet...

 

 

Three college freshmen wanted to join a fraternity which only accepted wrestlers. They gathered at the frat house on initiation night.

"First of all," said the fraternity president, "you must prove to us how fit you are, how strong you are, and how resourceful you are. To do this, you must run two miles, scale a fifteen foot wall and swim across a twenty foot moat. This will get you into the animal enclosure at the zoo. You will then takedown, armlock, and pin the largest gorilla in the zoo. After this, you must find the most beautiful girl on campus, seduce and satisfy her in every way."

The initiation started. The first twisted his ankle during the run and dropped out. The second fell off the wall into the moat, nearly drowned and had to be pulled out.

The third however forged on, and entered the gorilla's cage.

The walls of the cage themselves seemed to bulge and shake. There were grunts and groans, and the frat boys looked at each other in trepidation wondering if they should intervene. Eventually the young man staggered out, his school tie round his forehead, his shirt tattered, with a beatific expression on his face.

"Wow," he muttered, "that was something else.  OK, so where is this girl that you want me to takedown, armlock, and pin?"

I'm not allowed to be bored at work anymore. Seems others think I send to many internet messages and I got a talking to today. DOH!!! BUSTED!!!! Looks like I won't be able to tease TriComet about tire changes as much. Oh well, I'll still get my shots in.
