Please motivate me to do some work
...since, after all, they are paying me to work.

15. Hey, good for you!
I'm sure you taste the sugar in processed foods more so now?

Well, I'll have to fall back on the old printing/publishing standby - beer! Get some pages laid out and this frosty Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is all yours.

2. uh.... I will motivate you if you motivate me...
I am in a telecommuter black hole... i.e. I worked a whole day ahead of my deadline schedule... so I can either increase my lead on the work I have or do nothing...

the urge to do nothing is VERY VERY strong.
