    Nah, definitly not feeding him nuts, though I know for a fact that he has no allergies. This guy is the human waste disposal unit. He'll eat (drink) anything. I've seen him scarf down figs and hamburgers in the same mouthful.

    I understand that and I have no problem with practical jokes at all, other than when you could hurt someone without meaning to because, whatever you might say, you do not have access to his medical records or he may have an allergy he has chosen not to share.

        A colleague of ours is not at work today and he's got a mostly empty creamer container. Being the jack@$$ that I am :-D I'm obviously going to substitute the contents of the container. Suggestions so far: flour & salt (flour won't dissolve though) Powdered Ginger Ground White Pepper Ground sugar. Any suggestions?

                      I dunno. You can't get much worse than creamer anyway. Anything else would be a bonus. Bob: Mustafa, thanks for substituting my creamer with anthrax spores. I never realised how awful creamer was until I tasted the bliss that was anthrax. *cough* Got a mild cough coming on *cough* Must have been all those years of creamer *hack* *cough* *cough*, thanks again. (If you must persist then how about baking soda?)

                      That's my number 1 choice at the moment, another coworker prefers the powdered ginseng. We'll probably end up with a combination of both.

                        If you could get a bit of vinegar in such that it spills when he uses it... that would be great. Vinegar + baking soda = woosh! And wouldn't ginseng just make him think his coffee had extra kick today?

                                      A colleague of ours is not at work today and he's got a mostly empty creamer container. Being the jack@$$ that I am :-D I'm obviously going to substitute the contents of the container. Suggestions so far: flour & salt (flour won't dissolve though) Powdered Ginger Ground White Pepper Ground sugar. Any suggestions?

                                      But this isn't college and this is a PG board so I will keep them to myself. Actually, if you really want to go all out add real creamer + alum. It will be hard for him to detect why everything is going so wrong. (BTW, http://www.fda.gov/opacom/laws/fedatact.htm)

                                        Hehe, I was wondering when someone was going to ask me that. My official name is "Steven-Mustafa Ismail Mustafa". Steven-Mustafa being my first name, Ismail being my father's name and Mustafa being the Family name. If you're wondering why Steven is there, its because my mother is a Canadian and so am I :). Well, half and half (my other half is obviously Arab)
