Make Someone Nuts, Today

Monday, December 19, 2005

I'd like to share with you one of my many ways of making people a little nuts. Actually they'll either take it badly or as intended depending on the disposition of the person of whom you are talking to. Back in my carpentering days....,

ME: "Can I ask you a question?"

BOSS: "Sure."

---- Long Pause ----

BOSS: "Well?"

ME: "Well, what?"

BOSS: "You said you had a question."

ME: "No, I didn't."

BOSS: (shooting looks at me) "Yes you did. You stood right there and said you had a question."

ME: "Nope. Must of been someone else."

BOSS: "There are only two people in this room. You said you had a question."

ME: "OH! No, I didn't say I had a question. I simply wanted to know if I could ask you a question. I just don't have one to ask yet. I was just asking. Ya know."

BOSS: "Whatever I'm paying you is too much. Get back to work. No more questions."

	Penny December 20, 2005 07:34 AM PST LOL ... I love driving people crazy! Reminds me of the guy who got caught at a lake holding a bunch of fish without a license. He told the game warden they were pet fish and he brought them to the lake everyday for a swim. When he called them, they came back and he took them home. "Wanna see? he asks the warden. Warden says sure and the guy dumps them all in the lake. After several minutes, the warden says "Well, aren't you going to call them?" "Call who?" says the guy. "The FISH!" replies the warden. "What fish?" says the guy.

	Toaod December 19, 2005 08:05 PM PST Oh yeah, I love doing that stuff.


	AbbyNormal December 19, 2005 02:47 PM PST Yeah, whatever he was paying you was too much. My poor children. Whenever they notice something in the house and ask, "we got one of these?", I just say, "no". Cuts down on the chatter.
