So the whole Greek Week thing kinda fell flat. I’m not too worried – after all, the civilization basically died out anyway, right?

Anyway, onto a few things that have been concerning 46 lately:

-Unlocked public restroom doors. The bathroom at our office has doors that lock to show a little “occupied” sign when someone is in the stall. Convenient, right? Not so much when people don’t lock the door. Please explain to me how it is difficult to spend the 1.37 seconds necessary to flip the lock.

-Stolen airline and electric wheelchairs on the streets of Atlanta. The quantity of electric wheelchairs being used by generally able-bodied people in this city is truly amazing. However, let’s not assume that said person is using it on the sidewalk. No, no, much more fun to sit in the middle of the intersection at rush hour while yelling at the buses that honk at you. My favorite, though, is the ones that still say Airtran on the back with the huge red pole. Wow, I wonder where you picked that one up.

-Swine flu. I suppose that if I had to get a flu associated with an animal group, I’d prefer swine over avian. However, I’m still not sure that we really need an entire world walking around with those masks on. Especially not before Cinco de Mayo – margaritas definitely get caught in the fibers, I’ve noticed.

-Oregon Trail. Can we get an online version to play at work? I want to be a banker from Connecticut who decides to float the river just before dying of cholera, all while keeping an excel spreadsheet open, just in case.

-Textsfromlastnight.com. Between this site, FML, and Facebook walls, we’re being inundated with ways to do a public walk of shame. What happened to a good old oversized hooded sweatshirt with heels in hand as an announcement of your poor decision making?

That's all for now. Check back as 46me learns how to use Twitter.
