Would-be Teen Robber Asks Clerk Not To Tell Mom
SALT LAKE CITY (March 25, 2010) – Police said a teenager who botched a robbery at a Salt Lake City convenience store asked the clerk not to tell his mom. Salt Lake City police said the teen went into the store early Saturday morning and approached the counter with several items. As the clerk rung them up, the teen tried to sneak behind him and hold a knife to his neck. The clerk spun around with his hands up and smacked the teen in the face, knocking him to the floor.
The teen then asked the clerk not to call the police and then added “Don’t tell my mom” before he fled.

Jobs, interviews and other crazy things
Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked the Young Engineer fresh out of MIT, “And what starting salary were you looking for?”
The Engineer said, “In the neighborhood of $75,000 a year, depending on the benefits package.”
The HR Person said, “Well, what would you say to a package of 5-weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every 2 years – say, a red Corvette?”
The Engineer sat up straight and said, “Wow!!!! Are you kidding?”
And the HR Person said, “Of course… but you started it.”

Where’s…hhumm…what’s his name again?
Do you remeber Wally? And what about his appearance? If you’ve said yes to both questions, go for it and have a nice headache! But if you haven’t, just enjoy the drawing’s complexity and ask someone older (and possibly stranger) what it is all about.
The road not taken
For those who like poetry and for those who are learning to like it.
TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
