A good friend on mine (who is completely unaware this blog exists) recently found himself in a bit of a pickle that I thought everyone should know about. Immediately after the alleged events transpired he sent this email to a group of friends to get their take on the situation. These are his words, not mine; however, your feedback should be your own, not stolen from someone else like I am doing. For whatever reason, this reminded me of the classic board game Scruples, but maybe I don't have the most accurate recollection of how that game worked.____________________
I just got back to my desk after encountering what I deem to be a ‘new classic’ social dilemma. I’m in the restroom, about to finish up my morning business. A guy enters the stall next to me and starts his business. 5 seconds later, his cell phone rings. He answers.
Now, I’m in a tight spot. This is work. I’m not sure if the call is work-related, or what. I decide one thing immediately. I can’t flush. That would potentially out the dude for taking calls in the john. However, as I’m finished now myself, what do I do next?
I figure I have three choices:
(1) I sit back down and wait for him to finish and eavesdrop on his entire conversation. (Somewhat creepy…)
(2) I whisper over the wall and see if he’ll flush for me. (Extremely creepy…)
(3) I go wash my hands and get the hell out of there. (Not creepy, but just gross. Remember, we’re in an un-flushed situation here…)
Of course, I opt for option 3. Sure, someone will have to take care of flushing for me, which is something I absolutely can’t stand, but I didn’t like the other options.
What would you have done???

So there you have it. I want to know WW_D? (Enter your initial in the blank)
Two years ago I found some strap-on antlers at Target and took a delightful and charming photo of my dogs, Tanner & Maggie, for my 2005 Christmas card. Receiving lots of accolades for what was pretty much just done on a whim, I decided I needed to step it up the next year. That resulted in the photo of them dressed up as Mary and Joseph tending to an illuminated yard ornament baby Jesus. It is now an annual tradition 
and I find myself with no viable ideas on what to do for 2007. I desperately need help thinking of something that will top them all. Whoever comes up with the winning idea will win a prize, which will be inclusion on this year’s Christmas card list. What should I do? Please advise.
