Default The Notepad Men

Ever wondered why there are always Generals and Officials taking notes when the North Korean leaders are on visits and tours?

Default If it ain't on papyrus...It Did'nt happen- BBY

It's propaganda!...they apparently know how to write! Mohammed had the same thing as did several "god "emperors down 'ol Latin way just to record the 'pearls they cast before swine'. The Mohammed-speak version became the Quran; but fortunately the Vandals, Goths, and Visigoths took care of excess baggage in Rome and of course Caesar, himself, burned Cleo's library at Alexandria-before bedding the lass...so we have less divine influence. Plus, like 'pushing a broom at work to look busy', taking notes makes it look like you're 'paying attention to all the drivel'! The Supreme GooK-o'-the-North simply collects all the notes, picks what he likes best, and that becomes the official 'spiel' and the lucky scribe get's fed for the day or at least spared in the next pogrom of dissenters which includes 'godless' uncles!

Yep, its what we call 'milling about smartly'. Moving about with a sense of purpose trying deceive the chief into thinking you were gainfully employed.

INDEED! most of my income is/has been derived from 'milling about smartly' except for my early Social Security(62) stipend, which is derived from every one else's 'milling about smartly'!

That's funny, mine says 'sink 'em all!'. Who got it right, and who will have to spend a night in lock-up with 'nancy' (see pic) for being wrong...

The fact that you even know where to find a photo like that is disturbing enough...

Google images search for 'cross dress stag party'. Eye bleach is an optional extra.
