theJEDMAN NATION-A New Wave ManifestoDocumenting the JED Experience Thursday, October 10, 2002I don't usually have to work at night, but I did the last two nights, because there were a lot of visitors in the building. I was talking to one of my colleagues outside her room when one of the visitors asked to borrow my pencil to fill out the survey that all visitors were given. Now, writing instrument borrowing is supposed to be short in duration. It is to jot something down and give the writing instrument right back. Well, this visitor kept using my pencil and using my pencil. She probably sharpened it a couple of times. She even mentioned that she didn't like to fill out this crap. Plus, this was no ordinary pencil. It was a DIXON TICONDEROGA. This is the best pencil on the planet. It is a real wood pencil, not that vulcanized rubber crap. Anyway, I'm hanging out, talking to my colleague and waiting to get my pencil back, but I never do. The visitor took off when I had my back turned. It was PENCIL THEFT CRIME. theJEDMAN .: posted by Jed 8:48 PM |
