The Fabulous Friday Funnies

I pointed to two old drunks sitting across the bar from us and told my friend, "That’s us in 10 years."
She said, "That’s a mirror, you fool!"

Smith goes to see his supervisor in the front office. "Boss," he says, "we’re doing some heavy house-cleaning at home tomorrow, and my wife needs me to help with the attic and the garage, moving and hauling stuff."

"We’re short-handed, Smith," the boss replies. "I can’t give you the day off."

"Thanks, boss," says Smith, "I knew I could count on you!"

The Fabulous Friday Funnies

Thought I would share this story from a class at a Secondary College.

The Science Teacher brought the school goldfish back to the science room after the holidays. He told his Year 11 Biology Class that the fish “Amnesia” and “Dementia” were quite unhappy in the small aquarium in his shed during the holidays and were glad to be back in their larger tank in the science room. One student quickly replied “They obviously prefer swimming around in schools”.

U2 360° Tour – 12hr round trip

Jump to: Photos | Video | Setlist

It pays to be active on Facebook these days, on Wednesday November 24, 2010 I won 2x PL1 tickets to U2′s second ’360° Tour’ Auckland show via Vodafone New Zealand’s Facebook page. The tickets had a total retail value of $670.

So I put in for a half day leave for Friday afternoon, invited my workmate who was celebrating her birthday on Thursday 25 November. And before you ask, I had asked my wife but she wasn’t too fussed with seeing U2 or having to organise a baby sitter.

Rotorua ‘Pull My Finger…’

Just thought I’d share my luck in becoming one of 9 runner up’s in a recent ‘Love your Town’ promotion to have a slogan designed and printed on t-shirts run by Air New Zealand’s GrabaSeat and Billi Tees.

Rotorua awards 3000th Facebook fan

As part of my day job at Destination Rotorua Tourism Marketing as Web Development Coordinator I setup and maintain the official Rotorua Facebook fanpage.

Along with Craig Hammond, the Domestic and Events Marketing Coordinator, we keep the posts and updates coming that automatically get posted to our official Rotorua Twitter account.

On March 22, I posted “Counting the fans until we hit 3000, only 76 to go! Might have to round up a goodie bag for the 3000th fan!“, five days later Rotorua had their 3000th fan.

So the following week I contacted some local Rotorua operators who are actively using Social Media in their marketing plans and a few quickly came baring gifts that I could present to our 3000th fan, Amber Kedian.

Those fabulous Rotorua operators were:

• Agroventures Rotorua
• Fat Dog Cafe
• Polynesian Spa
• Rainbow Springs Kiwi Wildlife Park
