    Rumor has it he likes to molest his wax packs. Kinda like Buffalo Bob with skin, Mike will do with his packs. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    I'm having cpamike do my taxes next year, and I'm gonna place his check inside a sealed wax envelope.

    I think either Mike and/or Tim have a leisure suit made out of 1975 baseball wrappers

    Not mike. He'd need to actually rip something open to get those wrappers.
    Mike doesn't like a woman in crotchless panties, because he likes his treasures to be tightly sealed, with no visible holes in the wrapping.

    Rumor has it that Mike has guaranteed that if he doesn't reclaim his crown this year in CU fantasy football that he will rip a 75 rack for each team that finishes ahead of him in the standings...well, there goes a half box of racks!!

    On one of Mike's first couple of dates with his future-wife, she said, "is that an unopened cello in your pocket or are you just happy to see me." He knew she was a keeper.

    Honest to god story, that's how I got engaged. I had the ring box in my pocket, she felt the bulge and grabbed it. Couldn't back out then!
  • galaxy27galaxy27 Posts: 8,282 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Word on the street is that Mike takes his hobby proclivities a bit too far. On Christmas morning at the cpamike household, packages are never actually opened -- they're merely doled out, stared at, and the next thing you know, his annual "Joys of rumination" speech commences.

    There is some seriously funny sh*t in this thread. Thanks for the countdown and roast Gregg.

    I never realized how offensive Purdue was. And none of my fellow Boilermakers came to our defense. Some quick facts...

    1) What school had its own nude olympics?
    2) What school drove Bobby Knight nuts that he felt the urge to throw chairs like a BIG baby?
    3) What school has buildings named after Astronauts?
    4) What school has the best popcorn around?
    5) What school produced the greatest basketball coach of all time?
    6) What school has its own airport?
    7) What school had a sitting president visit?
    8) What school has a mascot that can kick the *ss out of any other school's mascot with a fricken hammer?
    9) What school has a largest matching band drum in the world?

    And drumroll please...

    10) What school had CPAMike roam the campus?

    You guessed it, Purdue!!! image

    Some other observations I've made thus far...

    1) I will not be doing Jeff's taxes anytime soon.
    2) Dan is correct that I don't have a leisure suit made out of 1975 baseball wrappers. Tim on the other hand... image
    3) Mike will not be ripping any 1975 baseball racks under any circumstances.
    4) Doug is right, we need to go to Miller's Ale House. image
    5) Brian will never catch up to me in posts, even after I'm dead.
    6) CPA in CPAMike stands for Certified Pack Authority.
    7) I never worked in the library, but I did have a radio show at Purdue. And I did have to open the records to play them. And yes, I am that old that we had turntables and records.
    8) I've never worked at Walmarts.
    9) I actually had a rack pack in my pants when I met my wife.
    10) Stephen has come up with the perfect Christmas. I will implement that idea next year. More money to spend on unopened. image
    11) Matt will be disappointed with my next 5,000 posts.
    12) CPA's lead exciting lives, we just don't like to gloat about it.
    13) I actually love Hooters, both the restaurant and you know, Hooters. image
    14) I actually still have unopened 1990 Donruss that I purchased when they were released.
    15) Don is to blame for my first 5,000 posts.

    Seriously, I hope my next 5,000 are as fun and the first 5,000. I've met a lot of great guys on here and I really appreciate all the kind words. Thank you.

    A guy in a bar leans over to the man next to him and says, ‘Want to hear an accountant joke?’ The man replies, ‘Well, before you tell that joke, you should know that I’m 6 foot tall, 200 pounds, and I’m an accountant. And the guy sitting next to me is 6 foot 2 inches tall, 225 pounds, and he’s an accountant too. Now, do you still want to tell that joke?’ The first guy says, ‘God no. Not if I’ll have to explain it twice.’

    ------------------

    One day Mike walks into a bar and sees a jar full of 20 dollar bills on the table. He asks the bartender what the jar is for.

    "We're having a contest" the bartender replies. "You put a 20 dollar bill in the jar and then have to complete 3 challenges. If you can complete them succesfully, you get the whole jar full of money."

    "What are the challenges?" Mike asks.

    "Well, first you have to down eight shots of tequila in 20 seconds. Second, out back behind the bar there is an old, mean pitbull with a bad tooth. You have to pull that tooth. Finally, upstairs there is a 90 year old woman who has never achieved the big O; you have to fix that."

    "Wow, that sounds a bit extreme for my taste, I think I'll just have a beer" Mike says. The bartender chuckles understandingly and hands him a beer.

    Over the next hour, Mike has a few drinks and keeps eyeing the jar; the jar was stuffed with twenties, there had to be over a thousand bucks in it. Finally, he shrugs, pulls out a twenty, and puts it in the jar. At this, the entire bar cheers.

    The bartender announces "Challenge one!" and pours Mike eight shots. Without a moment's hesitation, he pounds all of them back, with time to spare. The bar cheers again as Mike announces, heavily inebriated and slurring his words, "Alright, I've done the shots, now for challenge two!" and stumbled out the back door, shutting it behind him.

    The bar patrons can hear what happens next. Barking, yipping, Mike yelping in pain, the tearing of clothes; there is a true battle raging outside. Finally, it gets quiet and he comes back in. His shirt is torn to shreds, he's bleeding from a dozen cuts and bites, but he stands triumphant with a huge, drunken smile on his face.

    "Took care of the dog! Now, where's the old lady with the bad tooth?"

    Mike's sitting at the bar - drink in hand - when a hooker approaches him.

    She says: "For 300 bucks, I'll give ya anything ya want as long as you keep it to 3 words or less"

    Mike puts his drink down, thinks for a bit...slams 300 bucks onto the bar top and...

    says: "Fifty-Two Wax Pack!"
