Dicking Around Update!


If you are reading this, you are too close. As suspected, the amount of time Americans spend dicking around has reached epidemic proportions. According to a survey by Salary.com, the "average" American worker spends almost 2 hours per workday dicking around. This prompts one to wonder, "What is Salary.com's statistical methodology?"

The Bureau of Labor Statistics of the US Guvmint reports "an average weekday for persons employed full time and who worked on that day included 9.3 hours working, 7.6 hours sleeping, 3.0 hours doing leisure and sports activities, and 0.9 hour doing household activities. The remaining 3.2 hours were spent in other activities, such as those described above. (These estimates include related travel time.)" Note, there is no mention of dicking around by the BLS!?!

Now, who are you going to believe, a dot.com jobsite or The Guvmint? The proof is in the reading. You are, de facto, dicking around. We must go with the internets on this one.

I did my share of dicking around when I was in college but I always used protection.

BTW, thanks for your concern, we're all OK.

Hi OneEar,
Does Vice-President Cheney constantly have his knickers in a bunch? He always looks like he could bite nails in half….

The man in the orange gypsy costume has a marvelous groin ornament; is it a shrunken head??

Sven, glad to hear it.

ML, that is a shrunken head, but, in fairness, there was a cold breeze blowing when the photo was taken.

Hi OneEar,
Whoa! I’d dearly love to see a photo of his shrunken head on an exceptionally hot day…
