I'd happily (maybe not happily) work until 10 on Wednesday before Thanksgiving in order to have Thursday through Sunday off. That's way better in my book than working til 6, then having to do work on Friday because something is due out before the end of the break.
I appreciate the effort of the annual tales of deals yore and I'm sure you posted this for the long-term good of the Board (hi, Newbers! Welcome!), but if that is the best you've got, you should turn the fake-deal-deadline-from-hell talespinning duties over to Thurgreed or some other TCOTUer.

If I'm boring you, maybe you should go check the disassociates. I think there's a new strip.
His deadlines are fake right? ain't nobody waiting on that. See how it ties in?
