Teehee. Lol.

Also, please do appear in MSN when you can, I have the need to talk to someone about an issue I can not talk about to people I know from offline and/or people I do not know that much.

I speak for my entire household when I say "...what?"

So. My boss saddled me with something vil at work and said I would get back at him somehow. and he jsut told me to bring it on. I joked about how if he did someting else he threatedned to do,he would not get a way with "handcuffs an heesecake" - he loves cheeseake, I am sure ypou an get some of the implications there.

Now, seeing as Rahm Emanuel sends cheesecake to people who make him happy, and dead fish to the people who disappoint him... my brain went to places that involve "oh I kow! I will mail my boss a dead fish!"

That...actually makes sense. Not something I really expected to happen from a statement involving three so disimilar things.

It is all due to Rahm. >P

I am tempted. ut i might save it for if he actually DOES do what he threatened to do, and jsut use the cheesecake for his current infraction :P

Funny, here in Seattle there is a tradition with the Norwegian Mafia of warning people who have displeased them by having them wake up with a dead salmon in bed with them.

So how does that tie to Chigaco politicians sending dead fish to pollsters?

They both involve using dead fish to indicate displeasure.

I've always associated dead fish with dinner. Guess it's a New York thing.
