Are you refering to the BOL Compliance Briefing? If yes, I got a good laugh out of that one too!

Yeah, that one was too funny. It is even funnier since I have examiners right outside my door and they caught me setting up a prank in another employee's office-they didn't even warn me he was coming back!! See, everyone in compliance is funny today! Have a good one!

It kind of bummed me out...I liked the reduced burden on disclosures! Wouldn't it be nice if we could fit our disclosures on a soup can?!?!?! That would be GREATTTTTT!

My daily briefing today was blank! The regular stuff is there - upcoming webinars, etc. but none of the stories. Looks like I have missed out on all the fun . . .

I didn't think it was funny. I thought maybe my ship had come in. Then I thought I was dreaming, but it was just too good to be true. Then I realized it was a joke, and a good one, so I shared it with a few of my colleagues.

If that isn't a confusing paragraph, I don't know what is. It must be all the estra sleep I am missing, the little one has us up regularly at night.(and nothing on the tube!!) Good joke!
