So, as we've been told by repeated articles and blathering over the past few weeks, apparently today could well be....The End of the World. I'm wondering how ya'll are gonna spend this Last Day? Planning anything special? Any going away parties? Barbecues? I'm just sitting here working as usual - well...somewhat...and wondering if I'll have to pay rent next week, or if I really should get that hotel room for the Memorial Day weekend.

First I'm gonna bother everybody I meet....and then I'll probably go home and get drunk.
I KNOW YOU DIDN'T JUST FUCKING POST THAT!!!! OMG!!! Tippy Turtle. Oh my freakin gawd! I thought I was the only guy who remembered that.
"I just figured out a new way to really bug people.....hehehehe!" The musical greeting card trick was a riot when I pulled it in high school.
I went to the post office today to sign for a certified letter from the IRS. Actually two of them. Anyway, I got to thinking, if I mail enough helium baloons, my postal fees should add up to enough money to cover what the IRS thinks I owe. It's gonna take a lot of ballons but at least now I have a plan!
We're on a roll now! Jingle: "Hey, Tippi Turtle, coming down the street Jingle: Hey, Tippi Turtle! Hee hee hee! This is gonna be great! [ jumps excitedly ] Postal Employee: [ grabs box from midair, places it down again ] I don't know.. [ box floats away again ] Jingle: "Hey, Tippi Turtle!"
I saw it ONCE and laughrd so hard, it was permanently emblazoned into my memory!

Tippi Turtle 
Tell us what you're gonna do!"

Hey, hey, Tippi Turtle!"
[ Tippi Turtle walks down the street ]
Tippi Turtle: Hi, everybody! Well, enough small talk - we've got people to annoy! Today, we're gonna bother these guys - the hammerheads at the U.S. Post Office. Hee hee hee! Now, pay attention.
[ Tippi demonstrates in his home workshop ]
Get some real thin balsa wood, and glue it together like this. See? You make a little box! Then, you take a helium balloon and you put it inside like this. Then, wrap it up and address it! Take it downtown.
[ show Tippi Turtle standing in line at the Post Office ]
Postal Employee: Next.
Tippi Turtle: Yes. Good afternoon, Mr. United States Post Office Man. Now, you charge according to weight, is that correct?
Postal Employee: Yeah, yeah, yeah, just put it on the scale.
Tippi Turtle: Okee-dokee! [ places his box on the scale, but it floats upward ] Looks like you owe me some money, hammerhead!
Tippi Turtle: [ bangs counter ] Are you gonna pay up, or not? I want my money! Fair is fair! [ leans close to the camera to whisper to the audience ] Be real obnoxious. Keep demanding money. Bother as many people as you can! [ leans back into the cartoon ] I want my money! Fair is fair!
[ a fight ensues, Tippi casually walks away ]
Tippi Turtle: Hee hee hee! Now, that's entertainment! Goodbye, everybody! See you next time!
[ fade to black ]
