The Weather Creaps In

Time to add to the story of Herman!!


"Don't snow a snowman!" 

I am sure that you have heard that saying.  Whether it is a 'weather' term or one that you just simply shook your head because he said it many times with disdain in his voice....you know what I am talking about.

Herman will say "Don't snow a snowman" when he thinks that you are trying to put one over on him or just trying to get away with something..anything. 



The saying is especially useful in work environments where there are many people (or types of technology) that can be blamed. 
Trust me, Herman ALWAYS figures it out!

There are more sayings and stories out there...do you have one to share?

"I may not be a lawyer, but I have seen the odd episode of Matlock!"  Herman says.
This is usually followed by some very lawyer-ly advice.

"The Best Hermanism, ever"

There was a young lady at  a store causing Herman and I a lot of problems, so I was preparing yet again to drive to prep Herman for the arbitration hearing at which our young lady would be the grievor and star witness, testifying about yet another of the many egregious injustices to which Herman had subjected her in his never-ending abuse of power as store Manager. Anyway, before I leave Toronto, Herman calls to say that we were in luck – the young lady had quit that morning to take a job to which she was much better suited – at Hooters!

Silly me – I ask – what is she so much better suited to that job, has she got experience as a waitress?? To which our beloved Herman replies “No – you’ve seen her - don’t you remember how well ENDOWELLED she is?”

To this day, whenever I see a particularly ‘fortunate’ young lady, I think of Herman and of how well endowelled the young lady is.
