Random Acts of Stupidity of Marilyn & Wilma

The names have been changed to protect the guilty. Marilyn and Wilma are co-workers of The Dog and Cat. The Cast of Characters are explained in Post #2 (March 06).
In case you're wondering - we don't make this stuff up - nor do we exaggerate it. We would never come up with this on our own! We can't laugh out loud at work, so we use this as a way to laugh and vent some of the frustrations.
Do you also have to live/work with stupidity such as this? Leave a comment and let us know!

First Me-Me-Me Challenge for Marilyn

Marilyn pulled through the first challenge with flying colors! (http://random-acts-of-stupidity.blogspot.com/2006/06/help-us-test-me-me-me-syndrome.html)

We decided to use the death of Eddie, the dog from Frazier, so when there was a lull in the conversation we mentioned his passing. She took it from that to the fact that she doesn't have a satellite system.

Started at "I liked that show" then on to "I don't have a satellite system." She explained that she's not paying that much for satellite because they don't watch that much TV (didn't dare ask why.... she's voluntarily shared too many details in the past) and they live too far out for cable. Nothing else mentioned about Frazier or Eddie.

So... Poor Eddie dies.... and she doesn't have a satellite system.

She surprised us a little with that one... we thought she'd bring up Buell, their current dog, or maybe a dog that she had when she was a child.

Typical - and fantastic!!! Thanks so very much to you both for keeping your readers in the loop; it makes my day when there is a new post on this site. I was however AMAZED to discover that Marilyn doesn't watch TV 24/7??? She doesn't seem to be the intellectual type... ;)

We're happy to oblige. We're on Messenger constantly typing "Did you hear that???" We work at a place where the CEO insists that we are on Messenger. Most CEO's would frown on that!

No... she's not the intellectual type... the only shows she talks about watching are shows she watched with Daddy (see March 9th post "Longing for the Good Ol' Days").

According to what she wants you to believe, she & JoeJack spend a lot of time "playing".
