Every year at CompuCom the different departments put on skits as a competition. For the past 4 years, the IS Dept has taken first place. The next 6 pictures you see are of our 1998 skit. By the way, the above picture is my skeleton, with a dress and a wig on (aka: Celene Dion) after a long hard performance.

Our skit this year was entitled "The Delltanic". It was a parody of the Titantic, ripping on one of our main competitors, Dell Computers. This is the majority of the cast, giving a wave right before our performance.

Here I am as Rose (left)- about to jump off the Delltanic because I have so much money to spend on computer systems, but I'm stuck on a ship that doesn't allow for custom configurations. It's just Dell this, Dell that, Dell smokestacks, Dell steerage, Dell baggage and even Dell toiletpaper! AHH!

After Jack talks me out of jumping off the ship and Micheal Dell gets jealous of myself and Jack, he cuffs Jack to the rail. Then the iceburg hits... ICEBURG! DEAD AHEAD! (enter Bob McCranie as Iceburg).

The ship rumbles and shakes and Jack is set free by an undercover IS Associate wielding a powerful access badge. Jack runs for Rose and Micheal Dell, enraged in jealousy, aims at Jack and accidentally shoots Celene Dion as she belts out "The Heart Will Go On". (Celene is played quite properly by a skeleton)

Rose and Jack and the CompuCom Spy board the SS CompuCom as it comes in for the rescue. Kokomo is playing and we all get leis and drinks as we embark. Meanwhile, the Delltanic sinks out of site, and a gargle is heard from Micheal Dell... "It's not that cold!!!" The celebration on the SS CompuCom continues.

Yes, Rose and Jack are together at last, on board a ship that will create any system configuration they can dream up. As Rose revels in the ecstasy that is CompuCom, she can't help but wander up to the bow and raise her arms and shout.... "I'm flying Jack, I'm flying!" And Jack is compelled to yell: "I'm the King of the WORLD!" THE END.


Here's me in my Costume that took second place in our IS Department's Costume Contest! GIGGLE!

Here is Bob and I at work Friday morning. Bob took FIRST PLACE as the Berl Ives Snowman! What a GREAT costume!

Here is Janice and I. Janice took THIRD PLACE with her clever LARA CROFT costume! So cool.

Here is Bob (aka: Berl Ives) posing more appropriately outside.

Here is one more shot of Bob, along with Warren (snowman and penguin) at my party on Halloween night.

Joyce (Nick's Mom) made a sexy witch!

Tina came, ready to go as a cute genie!

Helen scared us all with her version of the dead Titanic Captain.

Janice and Mike. Janice is much more comfortable in her Doctor costume and Mike... well, I don't know what he's supposed to be. He's the only one who didn't come in costume! FOR SOOTH!

Even Janice and Mike's friend (Rob) came as a chef!

Jason and Michelle (Nick's sister) came as boxer and ring girl.

Nick was dressed in a mix of costumes. He started out as a wild and crazy guy (from Saturday Night Live) and ended up with a hat, beard, mustache and eye patch. ALL HAIL TO BANDITO PIMP!

Eric was dashing dressed as Zorro!

Roya and Jason came as Cousin It and Alien.

Yes, it's really Roya!

And just to prove it, I was there, too. Dressed more comfortably in a Disco outfit.
