Life at DocumentCzar is humming along nicely, thank you.
My manager's candy bowl consistently supplies me with empty calories and my coworkers' grammar-challenged compositions ensure the necessity of my presence.

Are my innards in danger of getting a sunburn?
Choosing a book's title just might be the most important part of an author's (or editor's) job. One small change could ruin everything.

- Dairy of a Wimpy Kid - Holstein Edition

- To Slander a Mockingbird
- Charlotte's Flytrap
- Who Moved My Processed Dairy Substance?
- The Seven Habits of People Who Always Get Their Own Way
- Stalk You Forever
- The Da Vinci Cold
- The Lord of the Metal Finger Band
- The Lion, the Witch, and the Secret Passageway Into Another Land That May be a Dimensional Anomaly

Donald Trump = Damp Old Runt
Chris Christie = Crisis Hitcher
Ted Cruz = Curt Zed
Carly Fiorina = A Rainy Frolic or Nil Coif Array
Marco Rubio = I Rob Our Mac
Ben Carson = Bran Scone (i.e., Good for you, but not very exciting)
Electoral College = Relocate Cello Leg
Oval Office = Loaf Of Vice
White House = I Shout Whee
Senators = So Astern or Are Snots
Filibuster = Lustier Fib
Incumbents = Numb Insect
Democrat = Coat Mr Ed or Recto Dam
Hillary Clinton = Chilly Loin Rant
Bernie Sanders = Bans Reindeers or Ensnares Bride or Breeds A Sinner
Judging by life as I know it here in corporate America, hardly anyone is aware of the things on this short list of Actual Factual Stuph. Try to keep your shorts clean as I lay some amazing facts on you.
- Not all toilets are self-flushing.
- Plastic ice trays do not fill themselves up with water.
- Break room countertops do not magically absorb spilled salt, sugar, coffee, and/or whatever that green stuff is that hardened over last weekend.
- When the music service your office subscribes to has a playlist of only 40 songs, you get the same song shoved into your ears 20 times a week, i.e., 4 times a day. (File under: Hostile Work Environment)
