Funnily enough - I'm actually thinking of pulling a sickie tomorrow myself. Not for any real reason; just cos I can't be arsed going in to work. Wracking my brains trying to find a suitable ailment at the moment. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I've already used Scurvy, Procrastination (sounds like a medical term - my boss is stupid) and the Black Death, so you can rule them out already. |

Shoot. I was gonna say scurvy. |

Botulism, Beri Beri, Legionares (fairly possible, actually, if you work in an air-conditioned building), St. Vitus dance? |

Peculiar. There was a brief snippet in free UK commuter tabloid "Metro" today about a firm that offers a "corroboration of excuse via pre-recorded background noise" service. No voice filters, as far as I remember but deffo jackhammers and gunfire. |

There should also be realistic background sounds piped in -- such as (a) doctor's waiting room, (b) emergency room, (c) video game arcade - no, wait, that's not a good one; (d) Ukrainian nurse taking care of you in your house and nagging you to dress varmly and get sleep. |

(P.S. 1000 bodily functions? Do I have that many?) |
|

No, but you don't want to be caught
using the same version of one twice,
now do you? |
