"Nobody is sicker than me..."

Short entry… That work thing happening again… Funny exchange within the Despeedstra household the other day… Now I know that I previously indicated that I would not use this site as a portal into my blah, blah, blah… I also suggested that the site would be funny and family-friendly…

Now where was I… So Mrs. Despeedstra (my wife not my mother) is convinced that Chatty Despeedstra (our child) is friends with a girl in her class with parents that are in the “MOB”… Now this can mean a variety of things…


Management and Organizational Behavior
The focus here is how to work within a team. In this team environment, never be the dissenting vote. When asked to meet with the group leader, always look at the floor on which you are standing; never stand on plastic drop-sheet. Never turn down an “offer you cannot refuse”… Never go fishing in a row-boat in the fog with a “co-worker”.


Man Over Board
As will above, often times occurs while fishing… Sometimes referred to as “sleeping with the fish” or “swimming with cement shoes”…


Main Operating Base
This is a military term. It refers to a permanently manned, well protected base used as headquarters. This would include, but not be limited to, Lake Tahoe, Las Vegas, and of course upstate New York. Bonus points if the company name is Genco Pura…


Money Over Bitches
Tupac made this expression a household one… Should I explain this? Really?


Medical Office Building
All of the above ultimately lead to this location in some form or another… It’s science really…


So anyway, the other day (same other day as the beginning of this post), the Despeedstra family, while returning from dinner out, dropped by this family’s house to leave a Girl Scout Cookie form with the residence… I reminded my daughter that she should not stand on any plastic… We quizzed her when she got back to our vehicle, about whether she saw a horse-head in their garage… Nothing yet but we are still watching… I don’t know man, a house on a hill adjacent to a park/woods on one side of the house, and a cemetery on the other side… I’m just saying…

Stay tuned for future developments… I doubt that they (the “family”; not the Despeedstra family) read this blog, however if I suddenly disappear while out on a run, there might be cause for foul-play…

Don’t forget to thank the volunteers!
