Don't Do It!

A public service announcement from www.whatwereyouthinking.org:

Five Steps Not To Take When Committing Worker's Comp Fraud

1. If you're going to fraudulently claim a work-related injury, do not brag about it to your co-workers.
2. If you do brag about it to your (former) friends, do not attempt to start a home-based business while off from work.
3. If you do start a home-based business while committing worker's comp fraud, do not solicit your co-workers, who are now working overtime, to buy your goods and services.
4. If you do all of the above, do not post a business card and flyer at local grocery stores and in the want ads with your name, phone number and myspace page.
5. If you do all of the above, do not try and pay off the police when they come to arrest you.

Why Is It?

Why is it we buy the least fuel efficient vehicles in the developed world, then spend hours each week trying to find cheaper gas?

Why is that the Executive Vice President of advertising sales at NBC Universal is named 'Ed Swindler'?

Why is it that when Dick Cheney touched down in Baghdad, he walked off the plane wearing body armor?

Oh wait - I know the answer to that last one: he had to tell thousands of soldiers that their tours were being extended another six months.

Hope that armor protects your back, Dick.
