A copy-editing FrontBurnervian spotted a headline goof on the front page of the Dallas Business Journal. (Hint: it’s Electronic Data Systems.) This sort of thing never would have happened while Glenn Hunter was there.

  2. They must have had their overdue TPS reports on their mind. Maybe the Bobs are in the conference room again.

  3. Guess they were looking at how much they’ll cash in on their stock resales…earnings per share.

  8. I wanna go back to my apartment and watch ‘Kung Fu’. Do you ever watch ‘Kung Fu’?

  9. I was told that I could listen to the radio at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven.

  11. Why should the Journal change? EDS is the one who sucks.

  12. I saw a man on the train today who looked just like whichever-one-it-was (David?)Carradine. And of course I thought of Kung Fu.

    Coincidence? Only to those who cower within the shackles of reason.

  13. say what you will about jennifer aniston’s acting ability, but when they’re in schlotzsky’s or whatever having the kung fu conversation and peter asks her if she wants to come over and watch kung fu and she replies with the simple “OK” with that look women get when they realize they’re gonna sleep with the guy their talking to, makes me all moist and tingly, as i love that look and miss it, as i’ve been married for too long

    great great great movie

    mike judge = genius

    the barely audible grousings by milton
    “i believe you have my stapler…”
    “i can blow this place up”
    etc. are priceless

    “what would you say you do around here”
    “…we always find it’s better to fire people on a friday…”

    i’ll stop
