If <i>they</i> found out something pisses you off, you'll be pissed off at least once a week.<br /><br />Enter Montreal Canuk. A small man, he was fussy about truly inconsequential things and somewhat paranoid. He'd come in Monday morning and find that his chair was attached to his desk via rubber bands, or the keyboard to his PC was unplugged so that when you turn it on you'd get an error. Montreal Canuk would hit the ceiling like a fourth of July skyrocket on steroids. <br /><br />One week a fellow worker, One Tooth Mike, said the guys down at the bar told him there was a big foot sighting in the Northern part of the State. I let this story circulate for a few hours, then Fred and I started putting together an expedition to go hunt Big Foot. We asked Montreal Canuk to go across the street to the gun store and find out what kind of rifle is best for Big Foot hunting, and if a license is needed.<br /><br />Were we a little mean? Maybe, but not mean spirited. I had several pranks pulled on me, but when they found out I wasn't easily spun up (I was, by the way, easily spun up but I kept a tight lid on it) they gave up in favor of an easier target.<br /><br />Do your kids know about the old trick with the telephone and the Vaseline smeared all over the earpiece?Mad Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190137186843630543noreply@blogger.com
