I'm Dreaming of a Christmas Bonus
Ten signs you're not getting a Christmas bonus:
10. Co-workers refer to you as "the ghost of unemployment future"
9. The last time you saw your boss was when he testified against you at the embezzlement trial
8. On your door, you find a lovely wreath of pink slips
7. What you call "my new office," everybody else calls "the supply closet"
6. Boss's Christmas card says, "Don't let the door hit you on the way out"
5. You keep getting memos reminding you that employees are required to wear pants
4. When your boss came over for Thanksgiving, he was crushed under an avalanche of stolen office supplies
3. Whenever you ask for a raise, a guy shows up at your house and breaks your jaw
2. In your most recent performance evaluation, the word "terrible" appeared 78 times
1. You're the starting quarterback for the New York Jets

Ed Norton
Edward Norton's acting career has thrown him into a number of roles over the years, from scary skinheads to his most recent role, a man who turns green and busts everything up. But now he's onto something else, courtesy of Hulk co-star Tim Blake Nelson. Variety reports that Norton will play dual roles in the upcoming comedic thriller, Leaves of Grass - a project Nelson wrote and will act in. Plot details haven't been released yet, but: "Norton will play identical twins - one an Ivy League classics professor, and the other a hedonistic, pot-smoking career criminal." Nelson has got to be relieved. He said that if Norton had declined, "there would have been no second choice."
Fantastic actor, this fella! He knows how to pick his movies, too.
