No Free Lunch

A handwritten sign appeared on the bulletin board here at Deathnic this morning. This sign announces that at 12:15 the company will provide lunch for all employees.

We used to get fed on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. We also used to get bonuses and raises...

Why lunch now? Speculation is rampant. Is it good news? Is it bad news? Is it just lunch?

Exciting.

What is Deathnic? Chem industry? I spent two decades pumping adhesives. Are you a player in that business (monsanto, rohm&haas, national starch, liochem, etc)?

I'll email you the company.

Don't wanna be too obvious.

No drama.

The owners father is turning 81 and told his son that he shoudl buy everybody lunch.

Pizza, mixed Asian cuisine. Not too bad.

Brucie, any chance you might be interested in heading up to workingman's with Ge on Wednesday and doing pace car driver or marshall duty? I might be able to get his entry fee comped. Marshalling there is a hoot. A few years back Kerry did it and some dude in a nearby house disrobed and started masturbating while yelling at her. She had him arrested, he had priors for SOs and pleaded guilty... She's not marshalling this year, so you can have that corner if you want...

Wednesday is the most important night. You would need to be there at 5:30, which with traffic would mean leaving RI no later than 3:45, preferably more like 3, I think. Check with Ge.

If you like, we can screw Ge's free entry and we'll reward you with some Shift, Schwag, clothing, money, hookers, blow, etc. Not to mention eternal indebtedness.

My brother is a "ticket broker" so if you're into the Sox, let me know. He sometimes gets stuck with tickets if you can go on short notice.
