Hockey games are fun to go to. Oddly enough, so are baseball games.

Yes, I know. It was a joke. I'll explain it slowly.

While the Penguins and the Coyotes are the names of NHL hockey teams, they are also the names of animals.
Penguins are a small, flightless bird.
Coyotes are carnivorous mammals somewhere between a dog and a wolf.
My comment was acting as if there would be an event where one could watch two groups of the animals fighting each other.

That happened last Tuesday.

Political humor might make someone think this is a thread of substance!

I just spend 30 minutes on the phone with the geek squad from Best Buy attempting basic human communication with a gaggle of morons who could not pronounce my last name correctly.

Sorry, Mr. Sang-Touchie!

I though he was Sans-tushie?

That's pretty close to their massacred pronunciation. You could be a geek squad incoming call rep if you could just place the headset microphone all the way in your mouth when you talk to get the best possible garbling effect.

They all kept saying "san-two-shes". When I kept correcting them, they just switched to "Mr. David" which in the mood I am in infuriated me even more.

Stop. I'm crying here!

Wait 'til this guy gets a job there!

I'd pronounce it to rhyme with Watusi. I'm quite certain it's not correct to do so, but I so love pushing buttons.

Of course, the guy with that last name who used to work here was known as "The Tooch"

Also never tell the Geek Squad what the contents of their emails say. Because when I explained to them that their email said "my device was too cool" and that I needed to call, they all shut down mentally.

I actually read the email to one rep and when I read "Call 1‑866‑205‑4388
Or Chat Now" she asked why I was calling her when I was chatting at the same time.

Keep in mind, I would have much rather web chatted but for the past few hours every time I attempted to web chat, I got this....

"Please wait. Our chat representatives are currently helping other customers." which finally led to "All our chat representatives are currently helping other customers. Please try chat again later. We apologize for the inconvenience."

The Timberwolves vs the Pelicans would be kinda cool also.

Ducks vs. Jets have caused some problems before, and I would LOVE to see Sharks vs Senators

Hmm in baseball I suppose Pirates vs. Marlins could be interesting.

I got the joke part of it. I just wanted to throw my comment out there that I think attending hockey games is fun.



BestBuyGeekSquad: Hello, may I help you?
CL: Itza me, Mario!
BestBuyGeekSquad: Ummmm....yeah, how may I help you?
CL: I receiveda an emaila. Itza too cool!
BestBuyGeekSquad: Ok....

So for my job we work closely with the Delaware Secretary of State. November and December tend to be our busiest times where the workload doubles at minimum. The Secretary of State sent an email out basically saying things are going to be "rough" for the next few months, and we'll need to be patient with them. Government jobs must be awesome!

So back to me... (enough of Bud)

Listen to this...



Didn't a classic NES era video game use this as its intro?

I heard this on hold today and it reminded me of an old video game. The Google is falling me.
