Spot the badger

Today is Friday and it is the middle of summer and our office is very quiet. So there is much horseplay.

The reason I mention this is; I was attempting to steal Marge's mug from in front of her. I tried the classic diversionary tactic of "Is that a badger over there, behind you?" and she totally looked. I was amazed. She said "well there could have been a badger" Bless her. How we laughed.

What proportion of men go to see Romantic Comedies with the girlfriends? And how do they feel about it?

The reason I ask is that I watched a film last night called the Family Stone (Sarah Jessica Parker, Diane Keaten, Clare Danes) which, from the publicity I could imagine would be a date movie. And I can imagine a few men being mighty pissed off after being made to watch it

It was so DEPRESSING. I was so miserable afterwards and not just because it was crap. Give me films about Patagonian dogs any day of the week.
