I was one letter 'A' short of playing the word canard on Words with Friends today. :(

There is a guy who works at our company and I have no idea what his medical condition is but he's bound to a wheelchair and there is somebody with him every day to take care of him here at work. I've even seen one of his helpers feed him in the cafeteria since I think he can move his hands enough to work the wheelchair controls and that's about it.

How boring of a job would it be to basically have to hang around somebody else's office all day with no responsibilities other than just taking care of anything somebody may need? At least if your at their house you can probably watch TV or something but you can't exactly do that in somebody's office while they're working and on conference calls.

The only thing good about my GF's worthless piece of crap father was that he taught her how to garden and hunt. She got a deer this morning and we will have tasty deer meat to get us through the winter once it's processed.

Can't get to the grocery store during the winter where you live?

Well that would be a stretch, but it's nice to have basically free meat to eat. Granted we will have a day or two where we couldn't get into town to get groceries. Plus if it's anything like last winter we may go to the cabin for a week and just chill in the middle of winter.

Target changed the noise on its chip readers. Now when it’s time to remove your card, it sounds more like a gentle reminder and less like your transaction failed. It’s a nice change.

Nice, I know the one at my local grocery store sounds like lasers are about to pop out and zap you.

A woman was shot dead in New York because some [expletive] [expletive] face [expletive] for brains mistook her for a deer.

After sundown (which is illegal), he figured it was a good idea to fire a shot from his back yard, from 200 yards away.

Tragic.
