Abusing freebiesA friend of mine recently attended a 'Champaign Lunch', where he was compelled drink as much fizzy stuff as he could between the first and last courses. In an ideal world we'd ask restaurant staff to tell us stories about fatties stuffing themselves at All You Can Eat places, but we recognise that our members don't all work in the catering trade, so for the rest of you - tell us something about abusing freebies. BTW: Bee puns = you fail.

Microsoft Tech-Ed...Six fully paid for days in Barcelona, starting on Monday should have plenty of opportunities...
...But enough of the future, a while back, myself and a few others were invited to a corporate gathering as we were up for some project-related reward. This was prior to outsourcing, and cost challenges, meaning a sumptuous all-expenses paid bash. Not enough for me though, as I rather coveted the table centerpiece - a four foot metal structure, like the Eiffel Tower, festooned with tea lights. The perfect gift for beloved.
Come kicking out time, huff out the candles and whip it under the jacket, which is nonchalantly, if somewhat lumpily, slung over my shoulder. My Dean Martin-esque Playboy insouciance was somewhat ruined by 6 hours worth of hot melted wax running down my hired Dinner Jacket, and fully owned body.
Wife hated it as did Sketchleys.

TechEDYeah,what he said.
Tell you what though, you go down to any of the Starbucks with as many attendees as you can muster, and we'll rumble you for the bergans full of gizzits.
The Ramblas mafia can spot those bags a mile off and make a special point of turning you over.
