OK Boys and Girls ....Lets hear your best excuse that you have ever used or heard and the reason that you used it if it was you!!!


Here is mine....

I am going to be late for work because I can't find my steering wheel... My boss laughed and said I hope that you can find your car and get your butt in here...

Yes I was late and yes there was a man and a large amount of booze invovled... :birthday:

I'll be out sick today. I'm suffering from anal glaucoma: I can't see dragging my ass in to work today.

I've worked around strippers and bar personelle for over 20 years. You wouldn't believe most of them, and the rest - I'll have to write a book. :lmao:

My employer once sent us to a workshop where we were told to call in well. "I'm feeling too well to come to work today."

Here are some tht a friend emailed me.....

I was sprayed by a skunk.

I tripped over my dog and was knocked unconscious.

My bus broke down and was held up by robbers.

I was arrested as a result of mistaken identity.

I forgot to come back to work after lunch.

I couldn't find my shoes.

I hurt myself bowling.

I was spit on by a venomous snake.

I totaled my wife's jeep in a collision with a cow.

A hitman was looking for me.

My curlers burned my hair and I had to go to the hairdresser.

I eloped.

My brain went to sleep and I couldn't wake it up.

My cat unplugged my alarm clock.

I had to be there for my husband's grand jury trial.

I had to ship my grandmother's bones to India (note: she passed away 20 years before).

I forgot what day of the week it was.

Someone slipped drugs in my drink last night.

A tree fell on my car.

My monkey died.


Hey some of them sound pretty dang good.....

First off, I am really bad at remembering names. After a heavy night of boozing. I had a young lady back at my place. She asked me what her name was. The only reply I could come up with was: Names aren't important when you're in love. The best part. It worked! Isn't university great.
