In my never ending quest to provide you with slightly biased political information I today give you this:

The Minnesota Transportation Amendment

Vote Yes?
Vote No?

Overview for Vote Yes:
- 100% of the Motor Vehicle Tax(MVT) goes to transportation.
- Supported by both Democratic and Republican Governor candidates.
- Will use AT LEAST 40% for transit projects and UP TO 60% for roads and bridges.

Overview for Vote No:
- Will take away over $300 Million dollars from schools.
- Modifying the State Constitution sets a bad precedent.
- They say it allows lawmakers an easy way out of decades of bad planning.

Remember if you vote and leave this item blank it is a NO vote.

Hope this helps your decision,
Pete

1) When you are working a little late and just about to go home walk by Karl's cube

2) Grab boxes out of the dumpster and reassemble them

3) Stack 3D Tetris like to lock in chair

4) Take picture

5) Wait for results



Looks nice, a few things I didn't count on:

1) Karl was on vacation the next day. But he did come into work to quickly grab something, well not so quickly. His family was waiting in the car. ;)

2) He would send out an email to the entire department which I am not a part of asking that it be cleaned up.

Still that shit is funny. Sorry Karl!

To the lady who got out of her car and left the plastic water bottle that fell out on the ground:

Dear Lady,

I know you heard it and saw it fall out of your car, you know what I am talking about, that little 8oz plastic bottle. You saw it fall and for a moment I thought you were going to pick it up. But you looked around and walked away. I know you heard me say, "pick that up lady!" But you chose to ignore me. So I chose to pick it up and crush it between you mirror and car. Now I know that you will see that and throw it back on the ground, but you will wonder how it got up there. *Maybe*, just maybe you will pick something like that up next time it falls outta the car.

The world isn't your trash bin, keep it in the car until you fill up with gas or get home. Hell, carry it up to the building and throw it in there. Or put it in the trash bin your fat ass got on to ride the 1/4 mile up to the building.

Hope you have a shitty day,
Pete

UPDATE:
Oh, readers enjoy, it was still there when I left for the day.
