Incredible Week...

Well, while I was golfing on Friday, a virus broke out where I work. When I came in Monday, we were in "RED ALERT" mode.. so I was scrambling.
With a lot of wonderful help from co-workers here, as of this morning, the problem seems to be gone. There's a lot of clean-up work to do, but that'll happen in the next few days.

The insurance company is going to total my son's car. I finally told him last night, and it didn't seem to matter too much, till he was out with his friends. ALl of a sudden, he calls and is pretty upset that he's going to lose the first car he's owned and loved. Car shopping ahead... it's a mixed blessing.
I love car shopping, but it always ends in a fight with the wife. I just have to make the best of it and minimize the problem.
Also, my wife's going through a minor medical crisis right now.. and I'm being VERY attentive to her.
Dad hasn't had a good week... stress level is high for me.. what else can go wrong?

On to the news:

Ok, this is weird

New study finds people who claim to have been abducted by aliens may just have overactive imaginations. Two black-suited men who commissioned study seen shuffling feet, whistling

Study finds that the more educated a woman is, the harder it is to bring her to orgasm

This is a cool idea:
Terminally ill man attends his own wake. "If people were going to turn up for a farewell drink after my death, I thought I would rather be there and have a drink with them"

Paris Hilton and new boyfriend have sex in port-a-potty. Skanky is as skanky does

That's it for today... enjoy your day
