    Co-worker said he is remoting in as "The roads are still ice covered there are 50 cars in the ditch and one boat." Why do I keep picturing James Bond driving this boat?

    Nope. If it was him there would be a military tank inside the ditch.

    Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest.
    Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for...

      I dunno... Taking out 50 cars with one boat? Even 007 isn't THAT good :)

        Have you been watching a lot of bond lately? I thought gold finger was good, but then it makes me think of "Pull my finger" too. :laugh:

        Roger Moore in New Orleans. I can't even remember the name of the movie but he was all over the place in one of those boats. That was a while ago though.

          Nope, I'm morally prohibited from contributing to the Chuck Norris meme.

            Live and Let Die. My favourite Moore-Bond, as contradictory as that sentence is. //L

              That wasn't James Bond. It was Chuck Norris.

                    That's nothing. A friend of mine worked at a place that redfined "crazy". She overheard one of the people she worked with calling in, saying "I'm not coming to work today. I shot my husband. I think he may be dead." True story. Oh, and he didn't die.
