***Please be aware that this daily e-mail of dOrk fOrces has run out of life support. This will be the last e-mail to your workplace e-mails. If you would like to receive these e-mails at your personal e-mails, please contact me here or at spydurpoet@gmail.com
There is also the FaceBook group dOrk fOrces.
And the blOg, which is probably your best bet after today because I will be forced to post their daily instead of mass posting at the end of the week.
You can find that at http://dorkforces.blogspot.com
I apologize. It was a great run, but there's static about whether or not it falls within the guidelines of the company Code of Conduct, and I would hate to get anyone in trouble. :) (Yes, that includes myself)

from the life & times of jessi bean

Watched a certain HBO series (very popular) for the first time last night. Honestly, I mean, there were funny parts, but for most of it, I was sitting there saying "huh?" while Steffi was laughing because she knew what was going on. It was fun, though.

Then, of course, we proceeded to say we were tired and going to go to sleep, but ended up facebooking each other (again) from 5 feet away. :) I love staying with Steffi. It's always a blast.

**3:30pm: A BIRD just flew smack into my window here at work. No joke. Then it flew away like nothing happened. I can hear it's thoughts. 'Dang it! That was another force field. No one saw that….just kidding.'





People of Chase
from the life & times of … you!

I need 3 volunteers for an experiment.
#1 - someone who does NOT dream (or at least doesn't think they do)
#2 - someone who dreams on a regular basis
#3 - someone who dreams more than they think is normal for a homosapien.

^This is for an experiment in lucid dreaming. It's nothing crazy. I just need you to write down how your dreaming (or lack thereof) is on a normal routine, then start eating sunflower seeds (just munch on them), bananas, and drinking one of the following teas: jasmine, peppermint or anise (with your choice of sweetener added plus a smidgeon of cinnamon and nutmeg). If you're feeling particularly crazy about the experiment, you can also add extra servings of milk, pickles, popcorn, fish, and pistachios to your daily diet. I just want t know if this really promotes, if not lucid dreaming, then at the very least vivid dreaming and the increase of dream recall. Let me know.



^Ricardo's stress reliever. Is adorable. Yes? I concur. :)

My Life is Average

Recently I got a new laptop and made the homepage MLIA. I just opened up Internet Explorer and saw MLIA and now I don't remember what i wanted to do. MLIA.

Today, I realized that if you say "Your pants are on fire," then point at their pants, people will look down to make sure they're not. MLIA

Today I visited my 2-year-old cousin for the first time in a while. About half an hour after I got there, she pointed at my braces and asked in toddler-talk, "Why's there a necklace in your mouth?" Why, indeed. MLIA

Today, I was listening to my iPod while waiting for the bus. I started nodding and realized I was off beat. I was embarrassed until I realized no one else could hear the music. MLIA.

Today, I followed a guy all around Borders, just so i could hear him speaking french on the phone. MLIA

Today, my boyfriend and I were in Target looking at babywipes, debating which to get: Winnie the Pooh or Finding Nemo. A mother with two young children saw our predicament and suggested the Winnie the Pooh ones, saying her children love them, and she was sure our child would, too. We thanked her and bought them. We do not have a child, the babywipes were for my boyfriend's camping trip. MLIA.

Today, I learned that there are many viruses for windows computers, but only 1 for Macs. Apple makes the virus. It makes all of the icons on your desktop fall to the bottom, and if it is a laptop, and you tilt it they fall to that corner. If you restart your computer it goes away. I seriously want this virus now. MLIA



Learn from My Fail
from www.learnfrommyfail.com

When you’re really mad at your video games and your wife tries to comfort you by saying "if it helps I Love You!" the correct response is, in fact, "it does and I love you too" and not "your love won’t buy me a gun". #LFMF

When the TSA agent at the airport asks if you are a US Citizen, do not reply,"What happens if I say I’m not?". They will show you, very clearly. #LFMF

If that fancy new cheese you bought seems unnaturally chewy, check to see if the waxed paper backing is still on it. #LFMF

Me: “Would you like a free year of anti-virus for this computer?”
Customer: “No, that is too expensive! In my country, we can get it for about $16 USD!”
Me: “Well, in this country you get it for free when you buy a computer.”
Customer: “No, it’s too expensive. You give me a deal?”
Me: “I can charge you $16 US Dollars for the anti-virus.”
Customer: “Okay! You see? You gave me a deal.”
