Chad
Strawderman's
“Voodoo Boss”
Ah, Halloween... the time of year for masks, candied apples
and sticking pins into a voodoo doll of a boss. Actually,
Chad Strawderman gives you a choice of pins, matches,
some kind of chemical in a tube and insects. Depending
on your work situation, this might be better for you than
all that candy. Comments on
