Pointing to a black case he carried into my office,he said that if he wasn't hired the bomb would go off. disbelieving , I began to state why he would never be hired and I would call the police , he reached down to the case, flipped a switch and ran. No one was injured but I did need to get a new desk.

Thought for the day:

Work is a fine thing if it dosen't take too much of your spare time.
