To be amused...
Over a couple of weeks the following email interaction (without the pictures) took place between two employees on our floor speculating about the source of the many strange noises.

I think he’s trying to send us a message by banging on the pipes- his keepers must be out today. All I’ve deciphered so far is “water burn baby”

January 15, 2007 Press Release:
First reported by Slavomir Racowiz in his epic and semi-fictional “The Long Walk”, the cryptozoological wonder of the Yeti remains a mere mystery to most westerners. The cloak of mystery surrounding the yeti is soon to be rent asunder. Despite the difficult and improbable nature of translating a language spoken by a creature with no substantiated evidence of its existence; the makers of OUR PRODUCT wish to announce the release of Yeti: Levels 1 and 2. Working with an onsite expert housed in a climate controlled environment the language experts have worked tirelessly to provide the Nepalese business traveler with every one of his Yeti wishes.
Yeti: Level 1 and 2 should allow said traveler to utter such timeless phrases as:
“Where is
“I seem to have misplaced Everest”
“Frostbite, I have frostbite you hairy ape!”
“I apologize for burning you with my canteen”
“Thank you, I do not want to bear your love child.”
And the always useful:
“Stop beating me to death with my own arm”
Coming soon from OUR PRODUCT:
Look for further cryptolinguistic masterpieces such as:
Bigfoot
El Chupacabra
And for the sailing crowd, Mermaid Level 1 & 2 with the language of love supplement.

Excellent. I have heard that Klingon has actually gotten more requests than a number of living, real languages that people don’t just speak at conventions about the explosion of Kronos and how their empire fell because of mis-managed energy and squandered resources, but used to communicate basic needs of any human being, such as “Learn how to use your turn signal, !@#$” or “I well give you half a penny-weight and a farthing of dubloons for the fore-shores of the eastern half of the mosquito coast of Thompson’s isle, in exchange for you allegiance to the ever-perfunctory serendipity of Queen Georgette of Haggis-mead on Jimminy-shale.” It’s much more important to know how to pronounce “Kahp-taan KhhhhaaaaaahhhhRkkkkk!”

There should be a level devoted completely to curses, that would be AWESOME.

Subject: New neighbors?
They could combine it with the “Grizzled bachelor” and end up with acts 42 lines long. E.G.:
Where is the hardware store?
You don’t see many hardware stores nowadays, ever since…(42 lines)…and Randy Schladweiler never was the same again.

Consider the following about the noises downstairs:
-Bad 80s music blasting, including “Life in the Fast Lane”
-A strange plumbing/hardware van parked out back
-Occasional roars
-Pounding noises which could be a basketball on the floor
-Clumps of hair in the drains
Conclusion: OUR COMPANY has captured Teen-Wolf and is making him do construction
