I certainly was.
So I decided to become a fan of fans.
Hope you join me there, too.

Quiz Time,
ROTFLMBO
M: Who is the person?
Me: You're not gonna hazard a guess?
M: No, tell me.
Me: Hint: she's in the news.
M: Sorry, who?
Me: Hint... the Western-most tip of the USA
M: I DON’T KNOW! TELL ME!
Me: Another hint: November 4.
M: I seriously don’t know. Just tell me who? Out with it.
Me: Not reading the news, are we?
M: Sarah Palin. Is she?
Me: Correct!
M: Wow!
Me: As your prize, you get a free newspaper subscription. Any paper but the Times.
M: Gosh, she is looking so pretty.

Travis: I should get one of those signs that says "One of these days I'm gonna get organezized".
Betsy: You mean organized?
Travis: Organezized. Organezized. It's a joke. O-R-G-A-N-E-Z-I-Z-E-D...
Betsy: Oh, you mean organezized. Like those little signs they have in offices that says, "Thimk"?
Betsy: You mean organized?
Travis: Organezized. Organezized. It's a joke. O-R-G-A-N-E-Z-I-Z-E-D...
Betsy: Oh, you mean organezized. Like those little signs they have in offices that says, "Thimk"?

ROTFLMBO,
You know what pisses me off?
I saw a man who looked like Shivraj Patil and my right hand voluntarily wanted to hurl a rock at him.
I don't believe in violence but then again, this morning I was reading Times of India and this report cracked me up. Immense schadenfreude!

Do you stuggle with phonetic alphabets?

Just Wondering
I have a peculiar problem. I fumble over phonetic alphabets while instructing people over the phone.
Today, for example, I was on the line with a customer care executive. I was telling him the model number for my DVD player, which needs repair.
So, since the model number was alphanumeric, I used phonetic alphabets - like 'D for Delhi', 'E for Elephant' so that he may not mistake 'D' for 'T', 'A' for 'J' and suchlike.
Those were the easier ones.
What is the first word that comes to your mind when you think of the letter F?
Or S.
Or P.
Or B.
Maybe I have a rotten, corrupt mind, but I struggle to promptly come up with 'clean' words for some letters.
"S for... err... you know... ummm... (blush)...Patna?"
Does anyone else have the same problem?
