Got a few hours? (Work Safe)

Post by Canada » Thu Oct 02, 2008 9:22 pm

Hey Guys / Gals,

I just stumbled upon this from back in April of 2007. I just spent the last 2.5hrs of my life reading the whole thing from pg1.

If you've got some time to kill or are at work and have nothing better to do, you have to read this.

I can't tell you how amazing this guy's story is, I can guarantee that if you read it, you'll not be disappointed.

If you read a few stories, you'll laugh alot, but if you read the whole thing, you'll be a different person after you're done.

Submitted for your time wasting pleasure:

Wow. You are quite right Chris, those stories have left me...different than I was before. In a good way.

The man is genius.

Oh, and you are right ZeroChad :lol:
