Wonderful News For People Who Like Uninspired Updates About Nothing...
The progress made today was astounding considering the short work day, also known as "labor union Friday." Carpet has been placed on the floor, perhaps in hopes that over the weekend it will stretch out and glue itself down.
THAT IS ALL.
And Now a Message From the President...
Not to be confused with a massage from the president...
THAT IS ALL.
Write. Now!
It's tough to come up with anything when the blog-goons are holding your feet to the fire. So there, I've posted something. Now leave me alone.
Lack of Comments Stupifies
Contrary to what AP said, the lack of comments leads me to believe that at least seven of the following must be true:
- We have no readers
- Our readers do not know how to WRITE
- Our readers do not know how to comprehend and hence comment
- Our readers are busy
- The is no construction going on in LS
- The world is round
Medal Winners
Also, the American synchronized working team won LeBron's medal. No gold. There was a little mismatch discovered in the 'Belt and Shoes' routine.
Lack of Comments Perplexes
The lack of comments on this site leads me to believe that one of the following must be true:
THAT IS ALL.
- We have no readers
- Our readers cannot read
THAT IS ALL.
More Peekers
At first I thought that they might just be here to assist in the renovation, but I quickly learned that they, and their lack of appropriate construction attire, were here as nothing more than common peekers.
THAT IS ALL.
Very Quiet
It is extremely quiet this morning. No activity behind the wall at all. Is Friday off in the construction world?
Talking about construction, I hate PennDOT. Everyone there needs to be fired.
No! Wait. My anger management therapist might beat me up if I continue. I love PennDOT. They are such hard workers and such dedicated workers. They devise the best means to make us wait on the streets so we can enjoy nature. After all, when else do we get a chance to enjoy nature in this day and age? They are such perfectionists that they rip up perfectly okay roads to make them even better for us. And they leave the truly bad ones as they are so we have something to compare the good with the bad.

Quotable Quotes
From the Construction Man:
"We need to get two guys on that."
"That wasn't called for at all."
"You started it."
"HOHOHOHOHOH."
"Something happening down there."
"It might be your girlfriend at night doing that to you" to the sound of tearing carpet.
"Ain't nobody doin' nuthin' to me. I wish"

False Alarm
As I suspected, it was a coincidence. I sneezed twice and there was no response. Such coincidences happen all the time in life and we try to make them seem like a big deal. You hear stuff like it was meant to be and this and that. Not I. No sir. I test every hypothesis.
Final Unquestionable Conclusion: They are unaware of our existence. Case closed.

Craziness
The voices behind the wall want to get Pat Kragan in there. If you know Pat Kragan, please share that information with him. They also seem to be aware of our existence - a sneeze was greeted with a bless you. However, just to be sure that it wasn't a random coincidence, I am going to sneeze again and report back.
There is also some sawing action going on. No screams so far. But they have been heard saying 'always remember teeth up'.

Teeth Up
Audio excerpt, transcribed for use on an internet:
"Teeth up! That is the way you have to do that. Teeth up, buddy. Keep those teeth up. There you go. Teeth up, teeth up, teeth up."
I am not sure what these teeth are, and why they must be kept up, but I can say that this technique, coupled with lots of swearing and poor grammar, appears to be an essential ingredient in LS renovation.
THAT IS ALL.

The Wall Still Stands
Like a behemoth staring back at you. Taunting you. Voices abound on the other side. Of what? For what? We know not.
But one day, we know the wall shall fall. And the sun rays shall stream. And the rivers shall flow. Again. That day is not today. But it is near. The smell is in the air. I can feel it.

Kermit Was Wrong
This BLOKI is green, because green is a color that symbolizes both promiscuity and earth-friendliness, both of which are key elements of this BLOKI.
Contrary to the incoherent musical ramblings of a creepy frog-puppet, it was not all that difficult to make this BLOKI green. It was just a matter of choosing the correct pre-fabricated blogger template.

Buzzwords
Buzzwords are important. They keep us from reinventing the wheel. Most of the times we realize that when we get there, we really don't have to cross the bridge. We can actually retrace our steps, reverse engineer the process and retrofit our needs to come up with a repeatable process. The long and the short of it all is that buzzwords allow us to take a step back and get all our ducks in a row so that when the rubber meets the road, we are prepared to perform and are not looking for silver bullets.

Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall
There are many interesting things that happen around us on a daily basis, but generally these interesting things do not involve loud men banging ladders off walls constantly to a point where I feel the desire to pull off my own ears a la Van Gogh.

Bottoms Up
This blog is vertically sorted by date/time, descending. For those without the wherewith all to decode, that means that you should read from the bottom up.

BLOKI 2
News channels are reporting that BLOKING (not pronounced blocking but instead, bloke-ing) is the new fad amongst Australia's liberal circles. They are hijacking our ideas and corrupting our values.

BLOKI
One might assume, wrongly I will point out, that BLOKI is the latest Danish children's toy. This is false, and your wrongness disgusts me, but I am not here to judge.
BLOKI is nothing more than the latest craze on internet. My projections show that most humans will be using BLOKI within the next 4 months. That is phenomenal.

All Quiet on the...
It is all quiet. Thank you lunch break. And I spoke too soon. Let the drilling commence. Every passing moment the noise seems to get louder. They have put a plastic wall in front of my bull-pen to "block distractions". It achieves the opposite - I hear all the sounds anyway and then my brain runs amok as I try to piece together stories to explain it all. The Great White Wall is pictured to the right.
On a separate note, AP(Analyzer Paralyzer) and I came up with a new concept today - BLOKI (pronounced "blocky"). It is a cross between a BLOG and a WIKI. So, we had a debate. Should it be called BLIKI or BLOKI. Then we realized that BLIKI just sucked. So we settled on BLOKI.
AP, please explain what a BLOKI is.

Live Blog
This is a live blog, meaning, in less technical and confusing internet terms, that this blog is being posted on by non-dead people, on an internet.
This is a performance-tuned blog with an enhanced cross-media architecture, as you will quickly note as you look around at the site.
When using this live blog of things that are happening, certainly you can appreciate the level of detail that we bring to the site, as you are most likely sitting within 20 feet of me as you read this.

The Title
Just want to throw it out there that this Blog is in no way intended to destroy LS. In fact, I will take a timeout and explain the origins of the title. To ensure we are all on the same page, you should know that there is construction going on in LS. We are finding it hard to take a step back and put all the noise on the back burner.
In order to vent, we have created this forum. This is us being proactive and not reactive. Naturally, we looked for LS Construction but that Blog was already taken. The contingency plan was to take LS Destruction. It worked. Here is the blog. Welcome.
