                      Pringles and fudge stripe cook-ays

[Shamelessly stolen from http://www.oddtodd.com/] [1] Through the electronic
grapevine (and it's a fairly well connected electronic grape vine down here
in Lower Sheol) I heard that my friend Kelly [2] was fired for doing what he
was told to do.

Three weeks ago!

Mark [3], Lynn, JeffK and I went to Kelly's to console him and to partake in
the ritual Pringles and fudge stripe cook-ays [4] of the suddenly unemployed.


In discussion it came out that a VP (Vice President) is probably protecting
his job and using Kelly as a sacraficial goat to appease the CEO (Chief
Executive Officer) who is under investigation by the SEC (Securities Exchange
Commission) so it might not be a bad thing that Kelly is no longer there. Oh,
but what a tangled web corporate politics and accounting weave.
