For Shame

I would just like to point out....

that in his previous post, Cory apparently felt as if he didn't need to adhere to the previously agreed upon alternating color scheme of our posts. How will anyone know who made that post CORY?!

Speaking of insults flying....

Cory, your mother is a 10 pound turkey.

I mean that in the nicest way possible.

Turkey Dinner?

It began in the kitchen this morning. Skeptic Josiah Depaoli criticized Adam RothrockÂs motherÂs turkey recipe. Insults. Raging tempers. Fists thrown. Insistent questions:

DonÂt you know it takes two billion hours to cook a turkey? How will you cook it with broken ovens?

One turkey. One deep dish. Some tin foil and operational convection oven. Flash forward to late afternoon. In a mere four hours , the bird lay nearly bare. Four merry men sat and ate.

Let it be known:

A turkey can thaw overnight.
One oven does work.
A ten pound turkey can be cooked in three hours and forty minutes.
A ten pound turkey cooked in three hours and forty minutes tastes delicious.
Adam RothrockÂs mother is competent with turkeys.

I hope this clears up some pressing questions about our turkey endeavors.

CWC - Turkey

Tonight Cory showed up with a 6 pack of vanilla cream soda, and it snowballed from there. Why did Cory have a 6 pack of vanilla cream soda? Well apparently Cory and "the lads" purchased it at Winco because with the purchase of 25$ worth of goods they got a turkey...or got a cheap turkey...I couldn't really understand before Ted (Cory's Man Trainer), Steve Williams, and myself fired off perfectly reasonable questions about his latest escapade such as :

When will he have the 12 hours to cook a turkey (they assumed it took 3, TOPS)
What about the fact that our ovens are broken?
What about ALL the turkey that we're going to be eating on Tuesday?

These were all very good questions. More were probably brought forth, but Cory got panicked look in his eye and mentioned something about "telling the guys" and fluttered out of the room.

CWC - Cory Lashes Out

Cory : Well in that case I hope you NEVER have a daughter.

Thanks Cory, I hope you never have kids either.

Girls

The other night a few lads and myself were visiting some of our [female] friends when one of their cellular telephones rang. Upon hearing an, "Oh hi, CORY," I immediately signaled for the phone and vocally demanded to know why Cory was calling girls on the phone.

I heard a rather panicked "OH MY GOSH" and then the phone went dead. Cory had hung up.

Furthermore he never called the girl back.

I have my face back.

The software Mixxx is inaptly suited for content creation. All that fuss for nothing. Dang.

Cory's Open Source Music Search Leads to Hasty Email Hilarity.

Subject : This site just exploded in my face.

Um...geez Cory, maybe the XXX has something to do with it.

Time to Be a Man?

As if Assertiveness Training wasn’t enough, Josiah bumped me up to Manliness Training. Ted Tracy is my advisor. He has a beard. He’s tough. He spikes the volleyball hard. And he knows how to make metal things. I’m scared.

CWC - Special Internet Edition

While I was online in the lab, a little window popped up, the conversation unfolded as follows:

Cory: Hello?

Me: Hi roomie.

Oh is it really you?

Yes Cory, it's really me.

Oh, I thought it was an auto-reply.

Cory..you thought my auto reply was "hi roomie".

....um...yes.

That, unfortunately, is paraphrased. I was going to copy and paste word for word, timestamps and all, but blogspot was down when I wanted to. I hope you enjoy it anyway though.

A deep insight into the life of Cory and Josiah, as seen through the eyes of Josiah AND Cory. Cory posts in blue, Josiah posts in green. Reap your just desserts, world!
