Hard work = underachiever

This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint...it goes like this:

What Makes 100%?

What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.

How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these
questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%


and


K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%


But,


A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%


And,


B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%


AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.


A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%


So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top.

Where do I begin?

This is a short little article, yet I'm not even sure where to start.

Bingo at McDonalds???

Blaming a car accident on the brand of shoes???


Woman, 90, disrupts bingo at McDonald's

INDIANAPOLIS -- A 90-year-old woman accidentally backed into a McDonald's restaurant, disrupting a bingo game and sending a couple to the hospital with minor injuries.

Lois Weber told police one of her tennis shoes became stuck under the gas pedal on her 2004 Cadillac, causing her to lose control and back into the restaurant Wednesday. She said she recently changed shoe brands and was not used to the wider fit.

No tickets were issued. Weber, who has a valid driver's license, was able to drive her car home.

Police said the car crashed into a wall and window of the restaurant in the Broad Ripple neighborhood on the north side of the city. The car pushed John Atkinson, 80, and his wife Beverly, 75, both of Indianapolis, who were playing bingo.

The couple suffered cuts on their hands from broken glass.

30 MPH Speed Limit on the freeway??

I'll be shocked if this actually works.

I-5 speed limits could be reduced in Seattle

SEATTLE - The speed limit on a six-mile stretch of I-5 in Seattle will change several times a day when the Transportation Department installs new overhead electronic signs.

The department says variable speed control should help traffic flow more smoothly and prevent rear-end collisions.

Four signs will be installed in the northbound lanes next year between Boeing Field and I-90.

Drivers near the airport might be held to 30 mph or 40 mph to reduce the chance of them running into stop-and-go traffic downtown.

A DOT project manager, Carol Hunter, says the $25 million project is one of the programs meant to relieve congestion during the removal of the Alaskan Way Viaduct in Seattle.

Today started off crappy

Today should have been a good day. The snow finally seems to be over for the winter, the Mariners won last night, and I have tickets for tonight's game.

And I had to go ruin everything by getting into an accident this morning. Crap!

I didn't get stopped soon enough at a light near my office, and rear-ended the guy in front of me. We pulled over and got out of our cars. Turns out that the guy I hit is a midget...oh sorry, 'little person'.

He walks to the back of his car to survey the damage and says to me "I am not happy!". I said, "Oh really, which one are you then?"
