thank God for stand up talks

yesterday our boss-of-the-hour gave us a delightful safety talk.
he had two things of high importance to share with us.

#1) Since the entire zipcode is under a sheet of ice, he told us to "watch our step out there, because it may be slippery".

#2) The brass in Buffalo have determined that if your vehicle gets stuck in the snow or on ice you should NOT EXCEED 35 mph while trying to rock your truck out of the rutt. If you gun it and hit 36 mph, your tire might explode.

All day long i kept singing "Rock Me Gently ".
It's horrible when you're walking for 5 hours a day and can't get an inane song out of your head. But it's still better to be singing a dumb song than to be thinking about an even more ridiculous stand up talk!
