limbo
It wasn't uncommon amongst Native American tribes and other tribal cultures to condemn having their photo taken, fearing that the process somehow would steal their soul. I have a similar superstition. And yesterday the "soul collector" caught me...
I ended up in 'on the board'.
I have always successfully dodged the "get the know the team" board everywhere I've ever worked. At my last station, Imurdered fought, bribed, and conspired to NEVER end upon the board. For some reason I've always thought it was dorky or something. Yesterday I was outmaneuvered when I unknowingly wandered into the promotions department of my own free will.
I thought I was getting my station ID taken, but it turns out that the same photo is used for the photo board.
Now I have no soul and I am forced to dwell in news-station-limbo...forever.

Ironic that the shirt in your soul robbing picture looks like and might just be the same one in your 'about me' picture, which, if I've been paying attention in class, was taken while you were still at your old place of employment.
But it isn't the same shirt! That's the weird thing. I just bought a similar shirt last weekend....
Damn. I knew someone would say something about that.
lol
Hey, if you don't like the photo, you have two choices:
"Flame On!"
or
"It's Clobberin' Time!"
Oh man, I always hated those 'boards', that sucks... I had the same fear growing up as well. Good luck getting your soul back. I'm sure there's some flower on some really tall frozen mountain, just for guys that lose thier soul.
This seems like the perfect time to mount a "Board Hunt". Why not don a pith helmet and track down each other Boarder and snap their picture with your own camera? Or, maybe ask for their autograph or sing them a line from "Getting To Know You." Or demand that your "new friend" buy you coffee or lunch or a new car.
