Around the coffee pot This forum is for any topic that you would normally talk about at the office "around the coffee pot". Jokes, tall tales, and true stories are welcome as long as they are clean and in good taste. I only ask that you steer away from topics on religion or politics. Go ahead and pull up a chair and pour yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy the conversation.

Well that Didn't Take Long

Have already seen two holiday commercials tonight. I thought I had a few more days before I saw the first one.

We were in Costco yesterday. They were playing Christmas music, and the place looked ready for Santa.
