The day started out here in Cube City like any normal “Cubeish” day then an company wide message came across the our screens...”A Blackberry was found in the Ladies Restroom in ITHQ-B. Please see Eva Toth if you've lost yours. Thank you.” Then it started. OM begins it with “Ok.. which one of you clowns lost your phone? Green, I tried to call you on your cell, but you didn’t answer… Hmmm.”; Then Coach “We all thought it was yours”; ManCave writes in “We were all in the men's room when this happened. Except for you, OM! Is "Working from home" really "Working from the couch in the Chick's can at ITHQ-B???"; OM responds with a sounding “WTF were you all doing in the men’s room together??”; T-Mobile finally getting off the phone spouts out with a “The question is why were you in the women’s bathroom, and why did you leave your phone there? Are you actually still there or you trying to get back?: then ManCave finishes the message bashing with a solid “Rumor is the Wi-Fi is cheaper in there than in Saline. :-)”.
The Professor and his side-kick-technology-web-dude “ManCave” are putting together a random number restaurant selection program to help The Lunch Gang determine where lunch will be on our Friday outings but isn’t finished yet. So we had to revert to our primitive method as seen below:
ManCave[9:57 AM]: let's get this discussion started.

ManCave[10:02 AM]: Corned beef and soup. I am ready now
ManCave[10:02 AM]: they have tuna

ManCave[10:04 AM]: Oh, menu...no, but I can check
Coach[10:04 AM]: yea menu
Coach[10:04 AM]: ok
ManCave[10:04 AM]: ok. let me check
Bago-has left the instant message conversation.
ManCave[10:09 AM]: Soups on at Noah's today: Clam Chowder, Tomato (a Professor favorite), Potato (Coach hates Potato soup) and Chili (always good).
Coach[10:09 AM]: Cornbeef and chili for me
ManCave[10:10 AM]: Same for me...or corned beef and tomato. Prof had the grilled chz/tomato soup combo once that looked awesome
ManCave[10:10 AM]: Coach tell Picky the plan
Coach[10:10 AM]: what will Picky do?
ManCave[10:10 AM]: WWPD
Coach[10:11 AM]: I like it
The Professor[10:12 AM]: Good with the decision. Let's do this at 11am
Coach[10:12 AM]: 11 it is
T-Mobile[10:12 AM]: Noah's it is ... 11 it is
Coach[10:12 AM]: Well done men of LG!
This is worth noting... a new acronym was introduced today WWPD.
WWPD = What would Pick Do?
Picky Skywalker was in the middle of the road today during the selection of a lunch location. Picky really wanted to get Fish today so The Lunch Gang knew right away when Noah’s was mentioned Picky would go for fish. From this day forward, whenever Picky is in the middle of the road on lunch we’ll refer to it was WWPD.
