Union Made

Gotta love my New York City taxes at work. And these knuckleheads went on strike for what again? The funny thing here is that I dont imagine any real disciplinary action being taken against him HOWEVER that is if he didnt make a crucifix...so in other words... he's screwed.

Nobody puts JC in the token booth.

Which for some reason reminds me of an exchange between Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr in the comedic classic Cannonball Run...

Sammy: We've got a secret weapon. God is our co-pilot!
The Greek: You'll need him
Dean: God is our copilot?
Sammy: Uh huh...
Dean: Remember our car?
Sammy: Uh huh...
Dean: Two seats?
Sammy: Two seats...
Dean: Where's he gonna sit? (smacks Sammy in face)
Dean: Where's he gonna sit? (smacks Sammy in face)

Yes that's awesome! It's so cool that everyone had to walk to work in the freezing cold at Christmas time so that this guy could get his raise.

Unions, another great social contribution from the FDR administration! Thanks commie!

Too bad Dean wasn't aroung to smack this guy in the face. It would be pretty funny if he went out on workman's comp after a hot glue gun accident...and then had his claim denied, got massive paper cuts from the Metro cards, got an infection and died.

Why does the Post have to bombard me with five pop ups just trying to read an article? It's totally the reason that I read Yahoo! Sports nowadays.

I know this will come as a shock, but I have been known to booze with the chick in the station near my office -- not at a pub, but actually in the booth. She's got a stereo cranking and full mini-bar and we harass tourists as she jokes about what a great gig she's got. Everytime she has a tan I ask her where she went and her reply is "workmans comp" It has nothing to do with the moral of this story, but it goes without saying that she digs me.

Hey, your McTrixie and Baseball in NYC links have an extra stroke at the end, it makes it difficult to get to the site w/o editing the browser address space. Since the quickest way to my own blog is through Aurora, this is a problem for me.

I told my dad about your being the family in charge of the last castle to fall to Cromwell, he was really interested, he has always been so patriotic for Ireland. His dad's family was from the islands off of Westport.

See ya.

The Aurora is my portal to all things McTrixie too.

Please remedy, post haste.

Yeah pretty cool, but as they say in the sports world after your team just got slaughtered yet put forth a valiant effort... it was a moral victory, or in other words -- a humiliating & debilitating defeat.

As in all things Irish, they were their own worst enemy.

Im more impressed by the fact that Billy Shakes' ghostwriter gave my peeps a shout out. Wat up Apollo!

those MTA employees don't know how good they've got it.

let's privatize it and let those idiots see how much of their health care premium they'd be paying, and let them pine for the days of the pension.

as cartman would say, "union mafia bastards."
