Company Policy?

I'm a little disappointed in myself right now. I had a disagreement with a coffee shop manager this weekend, and I'm still trying to sort it out.
( Small stuff )

Oh well. Petty tyrants of their own spaces deserve squashing sometimes, I guess. I'd like to think that he might add hot water and a selection of teas to his service, but somehow I don't expect it. Company policy -- that's almost as good as "I'm just following orders" when you don't want to take responsibility for your actions, I guess.

Writing Excuses Episode 21: Humor

from http://www.writingexcuses.com/2008/06/30/writing-excuses-episode-21-humor/

This episode is about humor, how to make people laugh, with a particular focus on writers. How do you write humor, why do we write humor, more suggestions about how to write humor, and a writing prompt to get you started. Now if we can include cute, naughty, bizarre, clever, recognizable, and cruel elements in our jokes, we'll get the laughs. Like a brick doesn't.
( Watch for laughing bricks . . .  )

And the writing prompt: write something funny in which strong profanity is appropriate but doesn't happen.

See you next week.
