Business Meeting Bingo....

Do you keep falling asleep in meetings and seminars? What about those long and boring conference calls? Monotone voices burbling on and on like a creek for hours on end, forcing you to look for the nearest sharp object or length of wire to end it all. Here’s a way to change all of that… Bullshit Bingo!

1. Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar, or conference call, prepare yourself by drawing a square. I find that 5″x5″ is a good size. Divide the card into columns-five across and five down. That will give you 25 one-inch blocks.

2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:
synergy
strategic fit
core competencies
best practice
bottom line
revisit
take that off-line
24/7
out of the loop
benchmark
value-added
proactive
win-winthink outside the box
fast track
result-driven
empower
knowledge base
solution
touch base
mindset
client focus
paradigm
game plan
leverage


3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases.

4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout “BULLSHIT!”

The Sunday Best....

2008 was the year man-made global warming was disproved. Sadly it won't stop the Liberal media and eco-weenies trying to 'convince' us otherwise.

Home for retired missionaries loses grant - because it won't ask residents if they are lesbians. Oh so pathetic.

Spiked drinks and derailed trains... the official U.S. warning for American tourists to Britain. It's not that bad.......well not all the time!

The £4billion Airfix Kit: Behind-the-scenes at Britain's biggest warships. If Brown has his way we will only get the models.














World's first flying car on the roads from next year - yours for just £130,000. Cool, especially if you mount a couple of guns on it.

Israel launches more air strikes as UN calls for ceasefire. F**k the UN.

Hopeless Zimbabweans prepare for bitter 2009. Where is the UN on this? With it's head up it's ass as usual.

Afghan cricket team battles to become world class. A step towards becoming a civilized nation.

Brown has brought Britain to the brink of bankruptcy. We are well past the brink!

Will Barack Obama help Gordon Brown in 2009? Only into political oblivion.

Diplomats watch to see if Robert Mugabe dare go on holiday. It will be a one way trip.

Britain and US refuse to demand end to Israeli airstrikes on Gaza. Hamas must be neutralised.

Flying in Iraq with 'Supermen'. Great article.

Autoworkers Union Keeps $6 Million Golf Course for Members at $33 Million Lakeside Retreat. Par for the Course where unions are concerned.

Save the high street – ditch bad service and ugly sales girls.

If your car shimmies, you may have a Driveline Vibration Issue

Driveline Vibration Issue - Possible Root Cause
This guy ran over a mattress and decided to keep going. The ensuing jumble finally whipped around enough to put a tear in the gas tank, the subsequent lack of fuel is what finally brought this vehicle to its knees.

It had still managed to drive 30 miles decently with a 60lb tangle wrapped around the driveshaft.

This genius complained that the vehicle had a "shimmy" when driving it high speeds.

This is what the dealership found..............

This is NOT a joke. If you were able to pass this 3 tests, you can cancel your annual visit to your neurologist, but not the proctologist. Your brain is great and you're far from having Alzheimer Disease. Congratulations!
