A Special Holiday Sound-Off, Plus the Chance for YOU to Sound Off!
Hey there, it's me, Steve D., here to sound off once again. Sure, I know it's been a long week, what with work and the kids, and the last thing you probably want to hear right now is a bunch of sounding off, by me, Steve D., but think of it this way: sounding off is a great way to vent all that pent up rage you have boiling inside that oval-shaped head of yours. I know that after I've had a long, difficult week, working in textiles as I do, sometimes I just want to explode, like so many jackhammered banana splits. But when I get into the groove of sounding off, doing a little here (Tell it!), and a little there (Watch out!), I find myself perking up. But also, it should be noted, that, while sounding off, I also tend to get a lot more angry at the world around me, so it's a very weird hybrid of emotions -- I call it Perk Fury. So you're tired, yes, but hope is in store for you in the future (the near future!). Not only is your week almost over, and you've easily compiled dozens of things to sound off upon (such as your grandmother's cumbersome laundry pile -- how can she wear so much in so short a time?!?), but you've also got next week to look forward to, in which, unless you work for a grocery store or a turkey manufacturing plant, you get a couple of days off. Days in which you can spend sounding off to your family, friends, and grocery store employees. Yes, if your Perk Fury is in full steam, and you're leaving a sounded off trail of angry dust, then you've gotten yourself into the Steve D. Thanksgiving Sounding Off Experience of Sounding Off with Steve D. Experience (note: I'm working on this title's redundancy). Bravo! Because the stink-fest that is Claire Zulkey is taking off next Thursday to be with her "family" and "friends" (my prediction: drinking cheap Scotch alone and re-arranging her collectable back-scratchers), and because I'll be traveling to visit my relatives in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, we've decided to let you, the five of you who read this crummy website, to sound off on what gets you steamed at Thanksgiving. Is it the dry turkey? The inconsistent giblets? Whatever bugs you, I, Steve D., invite you to sound off on it, using this, probably the worst forum for sounding off. Ever. Send your Thanksgiving Sound-Off to Claire who will put it up on Wednesday. I Salute You! Steve D. P.S. Attached is a photo of a fish I'd like you to kiss.
