    NFL is more like a sport that is part of Gladiator games...:-) Too violent for my liking.. 😉 With such a strong body like mine, I should definitely keep away from NFL... :hehe:

    I just remember something from a few years back.

    Person answer an internal posting for Data Warehouse Adminstrator. The person did not have any valid experience, but her resume did mention that she had operated a forklift.

    I don't know if she didn't have a clue what the position was about, or if the forklift reference was just a coincidence.

    We had a good laugh anyway.

    Looks like one of those discussions that takes forever with no solution. I have to say that Steve has good points, looking at the injury stats.

    I found this video, looks interesting!

    You'sa welcome.

    I also remember that we use to joke about the dress code when we were developing our data warehouse. You should be able to dress casual when working in the warehouse, right? Coveralls were optional.

    I used to play soccer... I was playing in the Midfield. I could take the ball fast to the opposition goal post but when I see the goal post, I get nervous and shoot it wide of the goal post. :hehe:

    that was my problem every time.

    Okay, I need some opinions here as I may be getting cynical in my old age. Please tell me if you think this is a compliment or a sarcastic remark. It could be I'm just having one of those days where I'm not sure what people may mean.

    My response to his previous question was actually quite short and concise.

    Lynn, I think it was a complement.

    I'm with Steve, no sarcasm here in my opinion.
