40) Tell an embarrasing story about myself: Once, I replied to a co-worker's email saying she was leaving by saying "So long. We'll miss you. And I'll really miss our regular pow-wows in the restroom." I thought I was replying only to her, but I actually replied to my entire company, including the CEO. In my defense, this was in 1988 when email (and I, apparently) wasn't nearly as sophisticated as it is now. I couldn't even retract it back then like you can now. I took crap for that for weeks afterwards, both good-natured teasing and higher-ups being nasty about it. Ugh.

40) Tell an embarrasing story about myself: I was in Savannah for St Patricks Day. There were about 300,000 people there. I had to use the bathroom BAD. The only port-a-pottie available had no lock. Well, lets just say it was a sit down job. I wasn't about to put my sweet ass in that so I was squatting, trying to hold the door closed, balance myself and do my business. Some drunk came up and started pulling on the door. I kept yelling "OCCUPIED" but his ears musta been drunk too. He gave a good yank and I couldn't hold the door any more. SO, there i was squatting showing all my business to everyone waiting in line.
Not to brag but i got lots of phone numbers after that! :laugh:
