The big anti-hijack thread.....
Talk about anything, but if this works than we don't have to keep looking around all the threads to see who is still on tonight, and every night, or even every day! Talk about the chiefs, talk about tomorrow, talk about football, politics or even how to do flooring and the applicable budget. What you're drinking, how hard it is to sleep, etc. Every thing is acceptable in this thread.....

And to think as a teen-ager on the varsity swim team I used to eat a 5,000 calorie a day diet and I was 6ft tall, 135lbs. I graduated at 150lbs.
Drink a ton of water..being full will take your mind off it..and..of course..out of sight out of mind..hide the ****ing cookies

Man, when I finally got to work I was so bad I had to hold my breath, then blow out, then tie one shoe. Pant for a while, then repeat. It was f**king pathetic.
I never realized until later how little I could do. I could barely play with my kids on the floor without getting winded. The thing that finally cracked me was when I heard a guy who was talking about his own weight and he said "I have no right to kill my children's father". That hit me pretty hard. Add in the fact that I wasn't able to do the things I wanted to do with them and it was time.
I packed it all on from years of neglect being a founding partner in 6 straight technology startups. Late nights, long weeks, total disregard for sleep and dietary habits, high stress, no time for exercise, never taking a three day weekend or even a one day weekend without being on call...
It all adds up to "fat bastard". I wouldn't trade those years for anything, though. I had a BLAST. I'm still doing the technology startups, I'm just doing it differently.

If I drink any more water during the day I'll float away. :-)

The bonus depends on which store you get and how well your manager can manipulate the books. It's not a bad job. Bob Dole bought a decent house and put his ex through the Masters program at KU Med Center working for Chester's Army.
