A note about the Christmas party

Dec 1
Dear Colleagues
We are happy to invite you to our annual Christmas party on Dec 24 in the Argentina Steakhouse.
We will have live music and be able to sing Christmas carols - and our CEO will appear dressed up as Santa Claus and light the tree.

I am looking forward to meet you there and wish you and your families a merry Christmas season.

Regards
Bernfried Meier-Eiergeist
Director of Personnel

Yesterday's mail had by no means the intention to isolate our non-Christian colleagues. We of course realize that your holidays do not totally conform to ours.
Therefore we will now call the party the "year-end party". We will have no tree and we will not sing either.
I wish you and your families a happy time.
Regards
Bernfried Meier-Eiergeist

In this mail I respond to a discrete hint from a member of the alcoholics anonymous that has demanded a 'dry table'.
I am happy to be able to comply with your wish but would like to note that your anonymity cannot be fully guaranteed.

I finally managed to get a special table for all the "Weight-Watchers" far away from the buffet and another table for the pregnant women that is close to the restrooms.
Are you all happy now?

Of course we will separate the smokers from the non-smokers by a heavy curtain that will completely divide the party room. If this is not possible, we will put the smokers into a tent outside.

Vegetarians ! I have been waiting for you! I don't give a '*§$%//#*@!!! whether you like it or not: We are going to the steak house!!!
If you want you can fly to the moon to be as far away as possible from the 'death grill' as you call it on the 24th. Just go to the salad bar and eat raw tomatoes.
BTW, tomatoes have feelings too, they scream when you cut them. Yes, I have heard them scream. Now what do you say?????
I wish all of you a rotten Christmas. Eat and drink what you like and choke on it.
Bernfried Meier-Eiergeist,
The idiot from the third floor that is wasting his time with you...

Dear colleagues
We have heard that Mr. Meier-Eiergeist is doing better now. The sanatorium will probably lift the ban on visitors within a few months.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
