it probably was him and when he realized that nobody wanted him here, he claims that it wasnt him.

i guess we can bump this thread every couple of years

    [DIV class=articleCopy] VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - If you think traffic is bad in the city these days with Canada Line construction and the usual roadwork, it could get a whole lot worse. Bus drivers could be on strike as early as next week.

 The bus drivers, members of Canadian Auto Workers Local 111, are planning to hold a vote later this week and if that goes through, they could end up issuing 72-hour strike notice. Their deal with the Coast Mountain Bus Company expired over the weekend, and the company has said that means we could see service disruptions as early as next week.

 However, TransLink insists riders shouldn't worry because a plan is in place should there be any job action. TransLink says a media blackout is underway on terms, so we don't know who wants what or how far away they are. TransLink also says it's part of the normal bargaining process for the union to consult its membership using a strike vote when talks break down

Last week I had a bad day at the office.  Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my job.  As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea.  I wear a suit to the office.  It's a wetsuit.

This time of year the water is quite cool.  So here's what we do to keep warm: We have a diesel-powered industrial water heater.  This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out of the sea.  It heats it to a delightful temp.  It then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose which is taped to the air hose.  Now this sounds like a damn good plan, doesn't it?  I've used it several times with no complaints.

When I get to the bottom and start working, what I do is take the hose and stuff it down the back of my neck and flood my whole suit with warm water.  It's like working in a Jacuzzi.  Everything was going well until my ass started to itch.  So, of course, I scratched it.  This only made things worse.  Within a few seconds my itchy ass started to burn.  I pulled the hose out from my back, but the damage was done.

In agony I realized what had happened.  The hot-water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it into my suit.  This is even worse than poison ivy under a cast.  I had put that hose down my back, but I don't have any hair on my back, so the jellyfish couldn't get stuck to my back.  My ass crack was not as fortunate.

When I scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish into my ass.  I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over the communications system.  His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he and 5 other divers were laughing hysterically.

Needless to say I aborted the dive.  I was instructed to make 3 hellish in-water decompression stops totaling 35 minutes before I could reach the surface for my chamber dry decompression.  I got to the surface wearing nothing but my brass helmet.  My suit and gear were tied to the bell.  When I got on board, the medic, with tears of laughter streaming down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to coat my ass when I got in the chamber.  The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't shit for two days because my a**hole was swollen shut.

We've since modified the equipment to filter out most sea creatures.

Anyway, the next time you have a bad day at the office, think of me.  Think about how much worse your day would be if you were to squash a jellyfish on your ass.  I hope you have no bad days at the office.  But if you do, I hope this will make it more tolerable.
