Welcome to the Board...

No it's not that kind of board. This may or may not be a board you want to be on.

It is, in fact, a random collection of comments, quotes and nonsense captured on the white board in our office. The board serves no other purpose that to entertain us (my staff and I), and remind us that life does in fact offer us moments of joy and laughter; and cheap thrills (often at the expense of our collogues).

This collection is an extract of comments from the various conversations that happen around our workplace, which happens to be a unnamed college in the Rocky Mountains. Most of these comments were not intended to be funny, but somehow by the grace of God, turned out that way, and we felt should be shared and contributed to.

Please note: in most instances the names have been changed to protect the "innocent." Unless, of course, we are mad at you. In which case, we may take further action and fully disclose your identity.

Please feel free to share some of your own board worthy experiences. However, keep it good taste. Comments deemed offensive will be removed.

So, once again, welcome to the board.
