Is this worse or better than singing Tesla's "Love Song" to yourself?

Lovvvvvve will fiiiiiiiiind a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

What do you know about Ice Wine?

Oh, fuck. I was Reisling nut years before it became more common than a bar band cover of Hotel California. Same way I paved new ground with Royal Blue shirts and digging the Strokes. Because of both its cellar longevity and its ability to maintain varietal identity while reflecting the individuality of its terroir, Riesling may be the best of all the white wine grapes. Its homeland is Germany, where it has been cultivated since the 1400s or earlier, and where it is made into wines that run the gamut from bone dry and crisp quaffers to the complex, unctuous nectars made from Botrytis-affected, shriveled berries, individually late-picked, and known by the moniker Trockenbeerenauslese.

Of course, I don't drink it anymore. I've moved on to African grappa.

Hey, hey, wait a second. This board is a two way street. Give and take. What do you know about IT Band issues? The pain started with what seemed to be a tight hamstring, but now it extends from behind my knee, up the side of my leg to my ass, and now is even bothering my back. I hobble around my office like a cripple. I think of IT Band injuries as a runners' problem, but the only running I do is in soccer, once a week. I am road biking/mountain biking/spinning between 6 and 9 times a week. Maybe it's something else?

I've mentioned here before how these macho dudes on the desk hum along sweetly to corny music, but today, another observation:

A girl on the desk has a Kelly Clarkson song as her cell phone ringer. Her phone rang, and she was teased within an inch of her life.

Fast forward to five minutes later, and what is cute dude who sits next to me singing? "HERE I AM!!" (a la Kelly Clarkson).

This time, however, I laughed in his face. And told him he spilled his lunch on his shirt. He was suitably chagrined.

I recently learned of someone who went in house at a national chain of music stores. One of the side benefits is that he's allowed to play guitar in his office.

I do not work for a national chain of music stores. However, I would like to play guitar in my office. Can I do this?

Your credit card, etc. accounts typically won't report you for anything less than 90 days late (some asshole companies might report at 60, but that is not the rule). If you've been making payments 30-45 days late for years, it might never be reflected in your report. Why? The credit card companies and other creditors want to keep you as their customer. Especially if they're collecting interest from you.

Shhhhh. I didn't tell you this, but most student loan lenders go 120 days.

Does it go well with cheesesteaks?

Do you have a guitar in your office to play? Or are you thinking more of the air variety?

1. I hate this person.

2. Only you can prevent you from playing guitar in your office. Crank it up, dude. Just don't suck.

I don't have one in my office right now, but I could bring one in. Maybe I could bring in an electric without the amp.

Pesnke doesn't need to answer you. I already gave him everything I know about ice wine.

Penske, don't answer him. Leave him to wonder and fret for himself.

Personally, it sounds like a rapidly moving IT Band cancer. Thats how my great aunt went. Terrible end.

Unconscionability is the first and last contract defense any of you fuckers will ever get out of me. My only solace as I limp out of here this evening is that I'll be able to soothe my pain with a crisp, refreshing riesling tonight as I sit on the couch and pre-pay all of my debts.

In case nobody has mentioned it recently, you are gay.
