RE: Christmas Party</p>
<p>I&#8217;m happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take place on December 23rd, starting at noon in the private function room at the Grill House. There will be a cash bar and plenty of drinks!<br />
We&#8217;ll have a small band playing traditional carols. Please feel free to sing along. And don&#8217;t be surprised if the CEO shows up dressed as Santa Claus! A Christmas tree will be lit at 1:00 PM.<br />
Exchange of gifts among employees can be done at that time. However, no gift should be over $10.00 to make the giving of gifts easy for everyone&#8217;s pocketbook.<br />
This gathering is only for employees! The CEO will make a special announcement at the party.<br />
Merry Christmas to you and your family.<br />
Pauline</p>

RE: Holiday Party</p>
<p>In no way was yesterday&#8217;s memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees. We recognize that Chanukah is an important holiday, which often coincides with Christmas, although unfortunately not this year. However, from now on we&#8217;re calling it our &#8220;Holiday Party.&#8221;<br />
The same policy applies to any other employees who are not Christians. There will be no Christmas tree or Christmas carols sung. We will have other types of music for your enjoyment. Happy now?<br />
Happy Holidays to you and your family,<br />
Pauline</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br />

RE: Holiday Party<br />
Regarding the note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table, you didn&#8217;t sign your name. I&#8217;m happy to accommodate this request, but if I put a sign on a table that reads, &#8220;AA Only,&#8221; you wouldn&#8217;t be anonymous anymore!<br />
How am I supposed to handle this? Somebody?<br />
Forget about the gift exchange, no gift exchange allowed now since the union officials feel that $10.00 is too much money and management believes $10.00 is a little cheap. NO GIFT EXCHANGE WILL BE ALLOWED.<br />

RE: Holiday Party</p>
<p>What a diverse group we are! I had no idea that December 20th begins the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which forbids eating and drinking during daylight hours. There goes the party! Seriously, we can appreciate how a luncheon at this time of year does not accommodate our Muslim employees&#8217; beliefs.<br />
Perhaps the Grill House can hold off on serving your meal until the end of the party &#8211; or else package everything up for you to take home in a little foil doggy bag. Will that work?<br />
Meanwhile, I&#8217;ve arranged for members of Weight Watchers to sit farthest from the dessert buffet and pregnant women will get the table closest to the toilets. Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with gay men, each will have their own table. Yes, there will be flower arrangements for the gay men&#8217;s table too.<br />
To the person asking permission to cross dress &#8211; no cross dressing allowed.<br />
We will have booster seats for short people. Low fat food will be available for those on a diet. We cannot control the salt used in the food. We suggest those people with high blood pressure taste the food first. There will be fresh fruits as dessert for diabetics. The restaurant cannot supply &#8220;no sugar&#8221; desserts.<br />
Sorry! Did I miss anything?<br />
Pauline</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br />

RE: The ****** Holiday Party</p>
<p>Vegetarian jerks: I&#8217;ve had it with you people! We&#8217;re going to keep this party at the Grill House whether you like it or not, so you can sit quietly at the table furthest from the &#8220;grill of death,&#8221; as you so quaintly put it. You&#8217;ll get your f****** salad bar, including organic tomatoes, but you know tomatoes have feelings too, they scream when you slice them. I&#8217;ve heard them scream. I&#8217;m hearing them scream right NOW!<br />
I hope you all have a rotten holiday and then drink, drive and die.<br />
Pauline, the Bitch from HELL!</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br />

RE: Pauline and the Holiday Party</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure I speak for all of us in wishing Pauline Lewis a speedy recovery and I&#8217;ll continue to forward your cards to her. In the meantime, the management has decided to cancel our holiday party and instead, give everyone the afternoon of the 23rd December off with full pay.<br />
Have a SUCCESSFUL day!<br />
John</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received this from a friend recently and thought it was worth sharing. It was originally posted <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/vijay2623/think-before-you-speak" target="new">here</a>.</p>
<p>Here are six reasons why you should think before you speak. Have you ever spoken and wished that you could immediately take the words back? Or that you could crawl into a hole? Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did. </p>
<p>FIRST TESTIMONY:</p>
<p>I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow and asked loudly &#8216;How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?&#8217; I turned around and walked back out and never went back &#8211; My husband didn&#8217;t say a word&#8230;He knew better.</p>
<p>SECOND TESTIMONY:</p>
<p>I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls.  I was unhappy with the women&#8217;s type I had been using. After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen who works at the store. He asked if he could help me. Without thinking, I looked at him and said, &#8216;I think I like playing with men&#8217;s balls.&#8217;</p>
<p>THIRD TESTIMONY:</p>
<p>My sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold a variety of candy and nuts. As we were looking at the display case, the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help. I replied, &#8216;No, I&#8217;m just looking at your nuts&#8217;. My sister started to laugh hysterically. The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away. To this day, my sister has never let me forget.</p>
<p>FOURTH TESTIMONY:</p>
<p>While in line at the bank one afternoon, my toddler decided to release some pent-up energy and ran amok. I was finally able to grab hold of her after receiving looks of disgust and annoyance from other patrons. I told her that if she did not start behaving &#8216;right now&#8217; she would be punished. To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice just as threatening, &#8216;If you don&#8217;t let me go right now, I will tell Grandma that I saw you kissing Daddy&#8217;s pee-pee last night!&#8217; The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange. Even the tellers stopped what they were doing. I mustered up the last of my dignity and walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow. The last thing I heard when the door closed behind me, were screams of laughter.</p>
<p>FIFTH TESTIMONY:</p>
<p>Have you ever asked your child a question too many times?   My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch in between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room. While enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I checked my seven-month-old daughter, she was clean. Then I realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a while. I asked him if he needed to go, and he said &#8216;No&#8217;. I kept thinking &#8216;Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I don&#8217;t have any clothes with me.&#8217; Then I said, &#8216;Danny, are you SURE you didn&#8217;t have an accident?&#8217; &#8216;No,&#8217; he replied. I just KNEW that he must have had an accident, because the smell was getting worse. Soooooo, I asked one more time, &#8216;Danny, did you have an accident?&#8217; This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over, spread his cheeks and yelled &#8216;SEE MOM, IT&#8217;S JUST FARTS!!&#8217; While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing, he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down. An old couple made me feel better, thanking me for the best laugh they&#8217;d ever had!</p>
<p>LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:</p>
<p>This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a very embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future, likely think, before she speaks.   What happens when you predict snow but don&#8217;t get any? We had a female news anchor that, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn&#8217;t, turned to the weatherman and asked: &#8216;So Bob, where&#8217;s that 8 inches you promised me last night? &#8216;Not only did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too, they were laughing so hard!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Washington, DC &#8211; Congress is considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans: The Americans With No Abilities Act.</p>
<p>(AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition. &#8216;Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society,&#8217; said California Senator Barbara Boxer. &#8216;We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they have some idea of what they are doing.&#8217;</p>
<p>In a Capitol Hill press conference, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D) pointed to the success of the U.S. Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. Approximately 74 percent of postal employees lack any job skills, making this agency the single largest U.S. employer of Persons of Inability.</p>
<p>Private-sector industries with good records of non-discrimination against the Inept include retail sales (72%), the airline industry (68%), and home improvement &#8216;warehouse&#8217; stores (65%). At the state government level, the Department of Motor Vehicles also has an excellent record of hiring Persons of Inability (a whopping 83%).</p>
<p>Under The Americans With No Abilities Act, more than 25 million &#8216;middle man&#8217; positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose and performance.</p>
<p>Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given so as to guarantee upward mobility for even the most inept employees. The legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations that promote a significant number of Persons of Inability into middle-management positions, and gives a tax credit to small and medium-sized businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires.</p>
<p>Finally, the AWNAA contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the Non-abled, banning, for example, discriminatory interview questions such as, &#8216;Do you have any skills or experience that relate to this job?&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8216;As a Non-abled person, I can&#8217;t be expected to keep up with people who have something going for them,&#8217; said Ken Miller, who lost his position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, Michigan, due to her inability to remember &#8216;rightey tightey, lefty loosey.&#8217; &#8216;This new law should be real good for people like me,&#8217; Miller added. With the passage of this bill, Miller and millions of other untalented citizens will finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.</p>
<p>Said President Barack Obama (D): &#8216;As a President with no abilities, I believe the same privileges that elected officials enjoy ought to be extended to every American with no abilities. It is my duty as Chief Executive to provide each and every American citizen, regardless of his or her inadequacy, with some sort of space to take up in this great nation and a good salary for doing so.&#8217;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I found some of the following one-liners on a website the other day and I thought I&#8217;d share them with you. I think it won&#8217;t be too long before some of them start applying to me!</p>
<ul>
<li>Your sweetie says, &#8220;Let&#8217;s go upstairs and make whoopee&#8221; and you answer &#8220;Pick one, I can&#8217;t do both!&#8221; </li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I found some of the below songs on a few websites that claimed they&#8217;re actual song titles.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A teacher in Michigan asked her 6th grade class how many of them were Obama fans. Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny. The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different&#8230;again. Little Johnny says, &#8216;Because I&#8217;m not an Obama fan.&#8217; The teacher says, &#8216;Why aren&#8217;t you an Obama fan?&#8217; Johnny says, &#8216;Because I&#8217;m a Republican.&#8217; The teacher asks him why he&#8217;s a Republican. Little Johnny answered, &#8216;Well, my mom&#8217;s a Republican and my dad&#8217;s a Republican, so I&#8217;m a Republican&#8217;. </p>
<p>The teacher asks, &#8216;If your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would that make you?&#8217; With a big smile, Little Johnny replies, &#8216;That would make me an Obama fan.&#8217;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway when he notices a sign out of the corner of his eye. It reads: </p>
<p>SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS<br />
HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION<br />
10 MILES</p>
<p>He thinks this is a figment of his imagination and drives on without a second thought. Soon he sees another sign that reads:</p>
<p>SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS<br />
HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION<br />
5 MILES</p>
<p>Suddenly, he begins to realize that these signs are for real and drives past a third sign saying:</p>
<p>SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS<br />
HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION<br />
NEXT RIGHT</p>
<p>His curiosity gets the best of him and he pulls into the drive. On the far side of the parking lot is a stone building with a small sign next to the door reading:</p>
<p>SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS</p>
<p>He climbs the steps and rings the bell. The door is answered by a nun in a long black habit who asks, &#8216;What may we do for you, my son?&#8217; </p>
<p>He answers, &#8216;I saw your signs along the highway and was interested in possibly doing business&#8230;&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8216;Very well, my son. Please follow me.&#8217; He is led through many winding passages and is soon quite disoriented. The nun stops at a closed door and tells the man, &#8216;Please knock on this door.&#8217;</p>
<p>He does so, and another nun in a long habit holding a tin cup, answers the door. This nun instructs, &#8216;Please place $100 in the cup, then go through the large wooden door at the end of the hallway.&#8217; </p>
<p>He puts $100 in the cup, eagerly trots down the hall and slips through the door pulling it shut behind him.</p>
<p>The door locks, and he finds himself back in the parking lot facing another sign:</p>
<p>GO IN PEACE.<br />
YOU HAVE JUST BEEN SCREWED BY THE SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS.<br />
SERVES YOU RIGHT, YOU SINNER.</p>
