Hey BDB, do you have this sign at your stations yet?

As the old saw goes, BDB is laughing all the way to the bank.  Now if he can only find a way to invest in people and wait for Soylent Green to come true.

Funny stuff boys, but wrong.

I thought you highly educated men would be able to understand that no retailer wants the wholesale price of their products to go through the roof.

All it does for me is raise the hell out of my inventory costs, cut my profit margin to nothing and crank the crap out of my credit card fees.

Laughing all the way to the bank? Hardly.

That happens when the price goes down.

I understand the deal, BDB. Retailers get the nozzle up the pooper just as bad as customers. And while Exxon posts record profits, the working stiff spends more on gas and has less left over for Snickers and Hamm's. And Dew and Cheetos.

Right on fins.

People don't understand that I would rather sell them something to drink and a slice of pizza more than $90.00 worth of gas.

I know it sounds weird, but it's true.

You mean like gas wars?  Growing up in Oklahoma I can remember when gas wars pushed the price down to less than a nickel a gallon.  Now that was livin'!

[BDB]

Yeah, and cars were $1200 and you could buy a house for $9000.

And salaries were very little also. It's all relative.

Actually gas is in line with inflation at this point. The fact that it all happened in the last 2 years is what freaks everyone out.

Some of the best from our pal Norm at Cheers...

"What's shaking, Norm?"
"All four cheeks & a couple of chins."

"What's new, Normie?"
"Terrorists, Sam. They've taken over my stomach & they're demanding beer.
"What'd you like, Normie?"
"A reason to live. Give me another beer."

"What'll you have, Normie?"
"Well, I'm in a gambling mood Sammy. I'll take a glass of whatever comes out of the tap."
"Looks like beer, Norm."
"Call me Mister Lucky."

"Hey Norm, how's the world been treating you?"
"Like a baby treats a diaper."

"What's the story, Mr. Peterson?"
"The Bobsey Twins go to the brewery. Let's cut to the happy ending."

"Hey Mr. Peterson, there's a cold one waiting for you."
"I know, if she calls, I'm not here."

"What's going on, Mr. Peterson?"
"A flashing sign in my gut that says, 'Insert beer here.'"

"Whatcha up to, Norm?"
"My ideal weight if I were eleven feet tall."

"How's it going, Mr. Peterson?"
"Poor."
"I'm sorry to hear that."
"No, I mean pour."

"How's life treating you, Norm?"
"Like it caught me sleeping with its wife."

"Women. Can't live with 'em.... pass the beer nuts."

"What's going down, Normie?"
"My butt cheeks on that bar stool."

"Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
"All right, but stop me at one....make that one-thirty."

"How's it going, Mr. Peterson?"
"It's a dog eat dog world, Woody & I'm wearing Milk Bone underwear."

"What's the story, Norm?"
"Boy meets beer. Boy drinks beer. Boy meets another beer."

"Can I pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
"A little early, isn't it, Woody?"
"For a beer?"
"No, for stupid questions."

Golf
SJU is in 1st place by 11 strokes at the NCAA DIII Championships. Jr. Clinton Dammann is first overall (-1).

The conditions must be awful to explain such terrible scores.  It would be fun to see the Johnnies pull out the victory even if the team score is 30+ over par.

[Touchdown Tommy]

Always appreciate the honorable BlueDevil Bob coming on thru the MIAC spewing a quick Economics lesson for the fellas.  Pay attention this guy is sharp!!!  BDB mark your calendar for the UWRF game versus SJU.  I will be in attendance and expect the red carpet treatment...

BTW: Who is Miranda?  I'd definitely like to see more of her...Also, how did SofBDB's teams do last night?  Did you steal a bunch of bags like I told ya to??

Happy Thursday my little MIAC peons, Johan is dealin' so far on the hill...

I wouldn't miss the SJU/RF tilt for the world. Red carpet on order for all the MIACPP regulars.

I think we'll do our Saturday morning radio show from one of our stores there and put a couple of you guys on the air.

First game for the Babe Ruth squad is tonight. Bean balls will be flying. 

You don't know who Miranda Lambert is?   

[Johnnie]

Johnnies have now finished their 3rd Round of golf..... maintaining about the same lead....

Go Johnnies!

I was already quoted on the show last year.  Maybe DuffMan will actually be on the radio this year.

Make sure you'll have an extra mike. I'll probably have a lot to say. Cordless please, with an ear bud. Don't want to hold up the show if I have to take a leak.

[BDB]

I'm starting to think that I'll just leave the normal broadcast team home and make it an all MIACPP extravaganza!

We'll lead into commercials with Paris Hilton music and coming out we'll use Miranda.

It may be the last show the radio station has on before being shut down by the FCC.

For my 200th post I just wanted to inform everyone that tomorrow I will be jumping out of a perfectly good airplane from about 14,000 feet.  If you never hear from me again, you now know why.  Everyone else is doing it to celebrate a co-workers birthday.  I am doing it in celebration of obtaining karma priveleges which I may never have a chance to use.

Buckman, congrats on your milestone. Use your karma powers wisely.
I love this new team-building stuff at your company. Take everyone up in a plane and push 'em out. BTW, did Mr. C get down to the required weight? Hope his jowls don't flap him to death.
