C’est la vie

Among the immutable facts of life this morning:

  • A new Bama head football coach will be greeted at the airport like a Messiah
  • Relatives will get together over the holidays and pass both the good cheer and the common cold from one person to another
  • No matter how much vacation you take from work, it’s never enough
  • A boss will overlook the 99 things you did right and focus on the one thing you did wrong
  • The new party in power will “usher in a new era” with overdone rhetoric and revelry

Please feel free to pitch in with a few immutable facts of your own.

C’est la vie.

    Wal-Mart parking lot will be full

    When you are going on vacation and are sure everything is covered that ONE THING will pop up that your boss will gloat about for weeks to come.

    The line that I stand in is always the longest – I’m being taught patience here.

    When I’m pumped up to go outside – it’s raining. I’m going anyway.

    Run by work to check on things after being off for 2 weeks and end up staying the whole day.

    and the best one – Getting a Federal holiday for G. Ford … but already had vacation scheduled for that day … being told that I will forfeit my vacation day because I can’t carry it into the new leave year, which begins Sunday

    The over-inflated price the University of Alabama pays for their wishy-washy new head coach will, in no way, impact the payroll for their “student”-athletes on the football team.

    😀

    I crack myself up.

    If you play BSU, you will lose.

    Terri, Ed and Donna–
    I feel your collective pain.

    Scott–
    You’re a communist. Here’s your primer in the market economics of college football (click here).

    See you on 9/15 in T-town, Hogbreath.

    Kate–
    After the other night, I’ll never bet against your Broncos again.

    Wow. What an article. Wow.

    I’ll stick to be a communist.

    And Mike, are you that confident about 9/15?

    I’m all caught up in the intoxicating euphoria. So yeah, sure, I’m that confident. I have a feeling our kicking game may be a little better next time–along with a few other phases of play.
