Hey, Ya Know What?

Duane makes a good point. Robbie made up like Randy Quaid in Kingpin would be HI-larious. I've been thinking who could be our 'Big ern McCracken'. I'll get back to that one when I find one that will me you all laugh.

Cinnamon Gum. Man, I sure wish I still had a copy of that somewhere. It was a classic. What Duane and Clint didn't mention is what the best part of it all was. See, we were tipped off to this uber-dork site where people posted their poems and then others replied and waxed all uber-dorky about their meaning. My classic, Cinnamon Gum, was basically a rework of the song "Oh Sherrie" by Steve Perry. How much fun do you think we had when I posted it and these people started replying about what it means when all along it was a bunch of bunk! Ah, those were the days. Clint, Duane, Brandon, Amy, and others on 2nd shift at Charter. Guys, remember how Brandon had the huge crush on Amy and would get mad at the BDIG (Big Dumb Installer Guy) for hanging around and talking to her? And one night he was ready to fight him? Remember when we downloaded the song "Amie" and played it? Remember how we would bust unmercifully on the huge noggined one and Kameron? Gracious... I really do look back on those times with fondness. The most fun period in my life as it related to being at work. Please, if you 2 remember any other good episodes, POST 'EM!!!

Then there was the Rich, Ron, and Ernie era at Charter just before... I remember Ernie and Ron getting so mad at each other they wouldn't look at each other much less talk and there I sat right in the middle of them both. I remember each of on a daily quest to find songs from way back we hadn't heard in a while to crack each other up. Ern, remember when I blew the air thingy on the back of Ron's ear and he had a kaniption fit? Or how about listening the Sisters (Betty and Jean who weren't really sisters) arguing in the CSR room? Remember doing modem installs at $40 a pop after hours and on weekends? Man, what an awesome time that was too! I'll admit, as far as work goes, my first 3 years at Charter were totally awesome... Then they went downhill and layed me off. But I ain't bitter...
