You Gotta Get Me One Of Those Jumpsuits

Long story short: My senior guys small group watches a movie called Bottle Rocket every year. We cook red meat and basically do the "guy bonding" thing centered around the comedy...which is funny notably due to the incredible lines of dialogue that can be used in every day conversation. It can be, and is, by my guys.

Anyway, the basic premise of the movie (which stars young Luke & Owen Wilson, who have since become pretty famous) is that four guys are trying to become part of an organized crime syndicate. This crime syndicate uses a front for their operation, a landscaping business called the Lawn Wranglers.

One of the guys, Dignan, tries to get another guy to come back into the gang. He agrees, only on the premise that Dignan can get him one of the infamous Lawn Wrangler bright yellow jumpsuits.

So, on Friday, Miles and Craig, two graduating seniors who I really have a great repore with and enjoy their friendship, show up at my office. This was the end result:




Why is that tape on their nose?
Exactly!

Are they in the military? No, they just have short hair.

Hang on...I'm calling my gang...ca CAW, ca CAW.

Most of you won't get the jokes unless you've seen the movie...and the fact that they would go to such great lengths to highlight our friendship right before they go off to college...well...it's one of the best parts of my job.

Just remember, guys...I'm the star by the door, and you're the zeros in the parking lot. :)
