~The Best Pic Award~

**** BEST PIC AWARD****
presented to
TYSON FOSTER - circa 1994-ish
for his dedication to orange pants and public displays of excitement

Today, while killing time with some chums at work, we came across the subject of 'the worst photo ever taken' of each of us - which quickly lead to ' the funniest photo ever taken' and then somehow got around to 'the funniest photo of Tyson I've ever seen'. Because he was conveniently not around and we had a lot of time to kill, this was a nice and lengthy conversation. We covered all the bases. The pictures of Tyson mid run at one of his many sporting events ranging from the Rec Soccer Days to more recent Church Softball days. We covered Starter Jackets, Green Adidas Shoes, the none facial hair days and the most popular of topics, his 10 consecutive years of wearing every color sweat pant out there. So it got me thinking - what is my favorite picture of Tyson? What would I categorize as the Best pic of Tyson out there? Unfortunately, it does not include those infamous sweatpants but one step up. Home-made, knee length, caution cone orange shorts my mom made for Tyson and Myself. And the best part of this is that it is a series of several interesting photos taken when we obviously needed to kill the end of a 35 mm film strip, so there are about 5 in a variety of posses, but I don't dare post all five.....today. So enjoy people. It's my favorite and it deserves much praise. Congrats Ty! You are the *proud* recipient of this most coveted award~

Good Luck EB2

So here is my wifely duty for the night. No Dishes, no Laundry, no late night booty calls - Simply a good luck to the Team. You better not Loose. Then you will be labeled as Softball Losers for all eternity...or at least till next season and you will both be out of the family because we are all too ashamed of you both. But if by some weird twist of fate you do loose and are reading this and it's Wednesday Morning, I'm sorry that I'm an ass. On the other hand - if you Won - Good job! Okay - enough babbles - Good luck for me and Gene Hackman. Lowes: let's build something together. :)

Posted Post Softball Game: Well - it was a really intense game - down to the final second, but unfortunately we were beat by the other team ( who questioned every SINGLE play and it got really annoying) But I just want to say that even though Jim and Tyson are out of the family - they both did really well and I am proud of them both. I know what you are thinking, "could this be a tender moment from BittheCobbles08? Yes people. This is that moment - take it in. Drink it up, because I am proud of the whole EB2 Team - Great Season Guys! Looking forward to next year :)

No longer Anonymous


So! It has come to my attention that this blog is no longer anonymous! People out there know it is me! And will now know what can happen to perfectly normal people when stuck in a cubicle all day with a keyboard and the Internet....and nothing else. I may loose respect over these posts from fellow bloggers, friends and myself - but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make. So let's start today's fun, because the day is looking bleaker by the second.

I decided last night on the way home when watching a homeless and quite dirty biker try to cross a 4 lane intersection while the lights were all changing, that I would give an award each day via Blog for the biggest retard of the day. I think I will call it the



"Tard-O of the Day" Award



Dedicated to those display just enough retarded-ness to talk about on a blog that 3 people read.

Other awards have come to mind, and may resurface in the near future, depending on the level or boredom. TV show that deserves most to go back in to rotation, Photo of the day, web clip of the day that deserves our undivided attention....ect.

But right now - in this pointless moment of thought, I want to focus on the Tard-O award.

I thought about giving it to Tyson, sho has been trying to adjust his chair at his cubicle all morning and finally got up the beat the shit out of the stupid thing, but there will be more worthy days for Ty than just today. I thought about giving to the lush that sits two cubes away. She probably had a couple of drinks on the way to work today because she has a margarita machine in her car like the flex capacitor just for such mornings, but no. She will be so drunk one day that I will create a whole new award for her. Today, it's going to someone who displays consistent Tard-O-ness every morning. Who wakes up in the morning with the sole purpose of pissing people off, highlighting the fact that he only has a 2nd grade education from the Rochester public school system and continuously displays his 110% enthusiasm for Tard-O's with each breathe he takes. This would be, the Dunkin Donuts guy on Rt 236 who always wears the Orange shirt and always forgets my friggin muffin.
Here's to you, Tard-O on 236, you earned it, you slimy worthless bastard~ Congrats!

What is this Blog they speak of?

Okay - everyone else seems to have very serious blogs full of thoughtfulness and intelligence. This will not be those. This will be dumb. Random. Full of intrigue for the young men and women who find themselves so damn bored, that they watch lions in Africa hugging to the Bodyguard Soundtrack. This one's for you. Enjoy.
