Fair Trade indeed
Now here is a good favor returned for ya. As I.T. is not present on my side of the plant I am known as the resident geek. Our newest supervisor on 2nd shift was asking me about buying a new computer and I asked what he wanted and what price range. I worked with him on our breaks to put something together and he told me that he was actually getting a computer from his parents that was 4 or 5 years old. I recommended that he just upgrade the one he would be getting as it would be in pretty decent shape to deal with the internet and everything he wanted to do and it would end up being cheaper through the available rebates I knew of. We decided that we would work with the computer he would be “inheriting†and beef it up with a 2nd hard drive and whatever else it needed. So I got the computer this week and started to work on it, I went to Circuit City and bought the drive that we would be adding and the Chapelles Show 2nd season on DVD which he mentioned he wanted me to throw in on the tab. I installed the drive, replaced the original drive with a spare I had that was larger and verified his system and am now in the process of installing the security and virus software. I told him about what was going on and he was surprised that it was going so quickly, he also added that if I wanted to I could crack open the Chapelle DVD’s and copy them for myself: SWEET! That isn’t the best part, you see this supervisor is a relative of a Clemson Football player. This relative, Trey Tate, gave the supervisor a game jersey last year and when he told me about that I flipped out that he had an actual Clemson game jersey. Well in exchange for my services, the supervisor gave me the game jersey and said he could get Trey to get him another one. The jersey I have is a white one, the one the supervisor hopes to get is Purple but he thinks it will probably be Orange. If it is Orange he says that I can trade him back for it. We are both hoping that with the newly introduced 2005 Uniforms, Trey will be tossing a few out and we can get the scraps. Either way I GOT A GAME JERSEY AND IT IS SWEEEEET!!

Well Brad I never would have guessed you to be a “Geek”… but hell if you say so… #92 Line backer, 6′4″ 275lbs that should fit you good… my girlfriends got a Mo Fountain jersey that she some how acquired, and she don’t know a damn thing about football and she still won’t give it to me… but I do have my replica charlie whitehurst… my girlfriend did give me a pair of gloves worn by one of the players… tell your supervisor that I will personally come down there and snap my toes for him if he will give me a hook up on a jersey… and just out of curiostiy(sp), do you like it better when they bleep the words out on Chappelle or when they say “Fuck” and what not?

For full effect (I have no idea if when to use a or e on effect) you have to have the swear words in it, they give it that oomph you don’t get on TV.

Dude, shoot for the Jad Dean Jersey, well, assuming the 4 member Clemson gay and homo club doesn’t already have it. You could look as sweet as Jad did in it.

If you use “effect” as a noun, it’s “effect”. I remember because in the word “noun” the first and fourth letters are the same… like “effect.’
Otherwise “affect” is a verb.
I’m a nerd.
