Bibles on the water cooler
I go to the water cooler today and there are two New King James Version bibles lying on top of the spare water tanks. What does it mean? Am I supposed to take one? Am I supposed to convert?
The thought of a "New" King James version is utterly repulsive to me. Let's keep the primitive scholarship and get rid of the beautiful language!
I want to borrow one because it claims to have a "User Guide," but I'm afraid. Stealing is one thing, but stealing a Bible!?
So, of course, now I'm wondering who among us is propagating Bibles. Could it be someone I know? I eye everyone with suspicion.... who dares try to save my soul?
Maybe the answers are in the User Guide...

stanky, it's so good to be here. i've been lurking for a few days, enjoying your wit and charm, and always intelligent skewed outlook. i'm thinking about how to describe your words..maybe subversive without takking itself too seriously. i will be back for sure.
You have your own Bible, it would have been nice to find something you hadn't read yet

jill, glad to see you, and glad you realize I'm not taking myself too seriously! Otherwise I'd be intolerable.
21k, damn straight.
as a follow-up, an executive assistant sent an e-mail to the whole dept asking who'd left Bibles by the water cooler, and they disappeared after that. I felt as though sanity had been restored.
