Chronic Motivational Disorder.....

I used to bear the stigma of being called "lazy" and "not living up to my potential"

then one day, in my 20's, i was diagnosed with CMD....it's not your fault, my doctor said...and since then, i have tried to get this disease recognized by the American Medical Association....well, I WOULD have tried, but my CMD prevented me....you know how it is...

so, i urge you, my fellow TB members, to give and give generously....otherwise, i will have to go to work, and that would really suck...

Give, so Dave doesn't have to go to work today....sounds like a winner.

(pm me, if you need my address to send donations)

Fenderphilia- A distinct love for all things Leo did before 1966 or so.

Not to be confused with

Fenderitis- A distinct aversion to all things Leo did before 1966 or so.

Both are serious, and require repeated doses of common sense.
But more for Fenderitis.

That's just weird.
