Happy Storm Chasing Fellow Weather Vanes,

Inflate your flotation devices. Lots of news this week.

1.]   We bolted out of the penthouse, and straight into an immobile home. Dust and commotion ensued, in the name of "progress".

2.]   Our sister-in-law site, http://whirledheadquarters.com/, took our International Dateline idea and hurled fifteen dollars at the interhole to stake a claim to internationaldateline.net.

3.]   Thankfully, we can count on you to help with the content. Thank You! The more embarrassing the better!

4.]  Meanwhile, back at central offices: As soon as we bolted from the penthouse, staff self-prescribed "Administrative Leave", and proceeded to test drive the vehicle of a wannabe new board member.
Nice bumper sticker. You’d never know.
4.] Things didn’t go well.
Always never crash into a personal injury law situation.
5.]   Staff "volunteered" to rectify the situation with a bucket truck, a beefy cosmetician, and an impartial observer (with hard hat).

6.]   So let’s have a little empathy. Here are administrators on Administrative Leave dealing with personal injury attorneys into whose sign you have just crashed with a billionaire’s beater. In an attempt to diffuse the situation and deal, our non-administrating administrator on a ladder says to the impersonal injury attorney, "It must have been my nut allergy."

7.]   "I’m allergic, too!" says the attorney. "Peanuts?"

8.]   "No, I love peanuts. And almonds. And cashews. It’s the nuts who get elected. I’m seriously allergic. This is the sign of the times."

Fictionary Friday:
Words you need. Whether you know it or not.
Roominant (room in ant) Noun: Someone who can't stop thinking about moving the furniture.
In a sentence:  Upon leaving The Penthouse, the roominant opted for a perpetual motion living room suite, so as to obviate the need for furniture placement concepts.

Fizzdom Friday: from our collection of favorite quotes.
Draw a crazy picture,
Write a nutty poem,
Sing a mumble-gumble song,
Whistle through your comb.
Do a loony-goony dance
'Cross the kitchen floor,
Put something silly in the world
That ain't been there before.
               -- Shel Silverstein

Wikipedia Friday Favorite:
In honor of the intersection of curiosity and logarithmically expanding human knowledge, we offer a weekly favorite obscure Wikipedia page. Breathe deep, and enjoy:

Friday Fluff:
9.]   One more thing about our guy on the ladder talking to the attorney, after he cracks the nut, so to speak. He says, "Why is ‘Administrative Leave’ reserved for public servants who may (or may not) have accidentally shot somebody?"

Hmm. Worth considering.

Write if (do) or (do not) have a nutty poem allergy.

OKAllright,
Jonathan
