The woman that sits across from me in the office got so out of control with her throat-clearing yesterday, that I decided to keep a tally today to see just how many times she would clear her throat during one work day. As of 12:30 pm EST, she had cleared her throat 31 times. Thirty-One Times in 4 hours! I feel like maybe nobody has ever taught this woman how to properly rid herself of phlegm...or maybe nobody has bothered remind her that she makes a big, dramatic "ah-ha-ha-hem" sound roughly 7.25 times per hour.
Brendan and I both received a year's subscription to Rolling Stone when we purchased tickets to the Ben Folds/Guster/Rufus Wainwright show that will be held in July. In the past 2 days, we have recieved 6 copies of rolling stone (3 issues x 2 copies), putting us on pace to recieve roughly 1095 copies of rolling stone in the next year, which is a lot...but not compared to the amount of times that the woman across from me will clear her throat in the next 12 months.
This poem was written by a guy who works as a writer on the Conan O'Brien show. It is a serious linguistic accomplishment...or at the very least, a good ice-breaker when you're at the bar. The end.
