The Things I Do To Keep Entertained

I love my job, but like most jobs there are times when I'm swamped, and other times that are really slow.  There doesn't seem to be any happy medium.  Oddly enough, I'm not much a fan of the slow times 'cause I don't like feeling like a slacker (even if it's because there's nothing for me to do) and also when I'm not busy the time goes slower and an eight hour shift feels like a 12 hour shift.

I'm able to entertain myself somewhat on the internet, but you can only check facebook so many times, and catching up on everyone's blogs doesn't take much time.  I've had to get a little creative in finding things to keep me entertained.

My latest piece of joy has suceeded in making the day go a lot faster.  A coworker of mine found a dramatic reading of Lord of the Rings.  If you're not familiar with dramatic readings, they're different from audio books because rather than having one person read the book word for word they have a whole cast who each reads a character, and they add in sound effects and the like.  Since they're older they tend to be incredibly cheesy and fantastically entertaining.

I started listening and it took my mind off the boredom, but then I began to think that there was definitely something to up the ante.

Lord of the Rings Bingo!

What a delight.

I Have Cracked the Code

I was scrolling through the Utah's Most Wanted list to see if I knew anyone,  with the dream of busting some obnoxious coworker or neighbor and receiving the key to the city.

I didn't see anyone I know, but I did take note of something else.  Most of these people had extraordinarily large foreheads.  I have come to the conclusion that crime is not the result of a massive string of bad choices, but simply by the shape of your head.

Looking closer and I began to notice a startling pattern.  Let me show you.

They each have distinct large bulging foreheads, and a point at the top of their head.  Their eyebrows all seem to be the same shape. They are also all sex offenders.



This next group of people all have small eyes, that are set really close together.

They were also all arrested for drug related crimes, so they have that in common as well.  Of course, look at them, are you really surprised they're druggies?


These next people were all arrested for various charges of theft and felony.  They all have oval shaped heads.  I'm not saying fatties are thieves, so don't mistake oval for chubby.  They also have similar lips, besides the fact they're all in frowns, of course.
 

 
 
Hey, why the long face? Oh, 'cause you were arrested for forgery or fraud? Yeah, so were these next people, and they all have a long face.

Ok, I'm not really saying you have unnaturally close eyes so you much be selling crack, or that your massive forehead suggests rapist tendencies.  Another big thing all these people have in common is that they are beyond stupid.

I'm curious, what do you think this guy did?

And last but not least, here is my personal favorite.
