Halloween Definitions
By TT

Stephanie was bored.

Stephanie was very bored.

And, as all the Merry Men know, that is never a good thing.

She was on her third day of being stuck in the office running searches and watching monitors and every man in the area knew something was about to give. Their only hope would be to channel the explosion.

To make things worse, Ranger was in a battle for a new client with their fiercest competitor and it wasn’t going well at the moment, making him especially difficult and hard-nosed about things.

If they were going to help Stephanie and avoid Ranger’s wrath, they would have to be sneaky about it.

Finally they had a plan in place.

As was company policy, each person carried their Rangeman issued phone with them at all times while on duty or on-call.

One of the features that they had made sure to have was access to instant messengers – not just text, but full IM’s where group chats could take place.

Stephanie was headed into her third hour of watching monitors and everyone on the floor could feel the tension building.

Her phone chirped at her. Lifting it up from the desk, she saw she’d been invited to join a group chat with Hal and Binkie.

Quickly accepting, she glanced around to make sure no one saw what she was doing.

Hal@Rangeman says:
Hey, Steph. Seeing as how it’s near Halloween, I thought I’d brush up on some of my vocabulary with Binkie. Seeing as how you like Halloween and all, we thought you could help.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
Yeah. Hal can use all the help he can get!

Has@Rangeman says:
Hey!

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
LOL Always glad to help.

Hal@Rangeman says:
Cool! Do you know what a Frankenstein is?

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
Duh, a monster made up of dead people.

Hal@Rangeman says:
Nope, it’s a hot-dog and a mug of beer! Get it – frank like frankfurter and stein as in beer stein.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
-eyeroll- ugh! It’s going to be one of those sessions is it.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
Yep. –grin- you had no clue what you were in for when you agreed to this, did you?

Hal@Rangeman says:
Your turn, Steph.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
Give me a minute…

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
OK, Got it. What is an Invisible Man?

Binkie@Rangeman says:
I think I have a bad feeling about this one.

Hal@Rangeman says:
No idea.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
Invisible Man is what a guy becomes when there’s housework to be done.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
-groan- I knew I wasn’t going to like that one.

Hal@Rangeman says:
I don’t get it. I like housework. It’s kind of relaxing.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
You would!

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
All right, guys. Sheesh! How about this one: define Pumpkin Patch

Hal@Rangeman says:
When a pumpkin is part of a quilt?

Binkie@Rangeman says:
Got me.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
It’s what a pumpkin wears to try and quit smoking.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
GROAN!!!!

Hal@Rangeman says:
LOL Good one.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
Your turn, Binkie.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
Hmm… OK. What is a Boogieman?

Hal@Rangeman says:
A man who likes disco music?

Binkie@Rangeman says:
Nice try, but no.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
I got nothing.

Binkie@Rangeman says:
A guy who passes time at a stoplight by picking his nose.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
EEEWWWW!

Hal@Rangeman says:
LOL

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
That wasn’t very nice of you.

Boss@Rangeman says:
I never claimed to be nice.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
They weren’t distracting me. I was still watching the monitors. We were just having some fun.

Boss@Rangeman says:
Babe, they can have fun on their own time.

Boss@Rangeman says:
You like definitions, eh? What’s the definition of a zombie?

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
What?

Boss@Rangeman says:
You in the mornings before your first cup of coffee.

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
Hey! That’s not fair! It’s also not true. :-P

Boss@Rangeman says:
Wanna stay over tonight and prove me wrong?

Bombshell@Rangeman says:
-grin- You’re on!
