From technology to politics to video games; these are the random thoughts of a geek with too much time on his hands

It's Thursday afternoon, the mid-afternoon sugar rush is wearing off and we start to get a bit fidgety.  Looking around for something to entertain us for a few minutes we spy an empty desk.  It turns out that T-Man took the day off.  Now, we don't know where he went or why, but we did know that his desertion needed to be punished in some way.

Of course, we can't just hide his chair or PC monitors.  We've done that before (*glares at andrew_*).  We needed something a little bit more creative.  Well, one thing we did have was a pile of toilet paper.  So, being the mature and responsible adults that we are,  we TP'd T-Man's desk.

Now, we didn't just toss toilet paper willy-nilly all over the cube and make a mess.  That lacks style and finesse.  We wanted this prank to show that not only were we thinking of T-Man while he was away, but that we cared enough to really do the job right.  So we wrapped everything on his desk in TP.  Pens, mugs, empty coke cans, action figures, telephone, monitor, mouse, dry erase markers etc. 

We even got the inflatable kangaroo Jafo sent us years ago into the act.

Here are the results:

041

A wide shot of the whole desk.  Yes, we mummified the kangaroo and wrapped it to the chair.   Oh, and if you look closely at the top right of the photo, you'll see we wrapped the doors to his overhead cabinets too.

040

Close-up shot of his desk.  Each can was individually wrapped.  The big package in the middle of the screen is T-Man's giant blue mug.

039

Keyboard, mouse, pens, even his pad of post-it notes.

When I go on vacation next month, I'm taking everything off of my desk and locking it away!

I don't ever want to know why Australians have inflatable kangaroos...


Hah! Gonna tell you any way!!!! Aussie bowlers use them as target practice in the nets prior to Test matches with the Poms... a pommie batsman's face is taped to to the head and..... well you get the picture.

***wonder if Kiwi cricketers use inflatable sheep instead ***


What's worse is where the port to fill it with air is


So what you're saying is that you wouldn't be seen dead in public blowing one up!

Well, they need some inspiration having just been completely annihilated by England.

Maybe it's time for them to give up cricket and return to the farm.

Baa

So this is how it's going to be....Take one little day off and.........Well, you know the story.

Without needing to say it, I think revenge is in order.  Andrew, Zoomba, Dean....I know you were the culprits behind this. I will have my revenge.

And for all those who had a chuckle at my expense, you might want to keep a weary eye out too.

They kept your work environment shielded from dust and potentially health-threatening germs.Heck,they may have even saved your life!

How you wish to "thank" them is up to you.

I was worried a few days ago when I saw this. I was sick and had to miss about a day of work, and was worried that several friends would copy the shananigans of this prank.
