When I read this tragic story-I could not help but think, ” That could happen where I work!”

A Los Angeles woman died in her cubicle at work last week, but her body wasn’t discovered until the following day, local police said.

What’s really scary is that it could happen-and I’m not kidding.

Kind of like the people who have to work here:

  1. Would not happen to you. SO would call looking for you or Punjob at the beer stop would miss you as it was Friday!!!!

  2. sometimes things just come together

    I already got you your ticket

  3. It’s amusing that building a high speed rail line is a central part of the plot while in real life the Teabaggers are busy shutting down all the real high-speed rail projects.

    As to whether Ayn Rand is a looker, check out this ancient interview of her by Mike Wallace, but don’t say you weren’t warned:

  4. “The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals … it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government … it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen’s protection against the government.”

    Ayn Rand

  5. Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt

    Power to the people..clenched fist with black glove….

  6. “There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”

  7. I prefer “Dune”, which, even as an adult, rings true in so many ways…’fear is the mind killer….”””
