Tru,

I am thinking of a few things...

Of course you must tell him that his singing annoys you. But you must appear very convincing when you do.

It may be illegal to bring a pistol or sawed off shotgun to work, but if you have an open dress policy, you could show up wearing full camo fatigues and blackened face with a beret to work. In that there likely may be others already dressed like this at work, you could also wear full cartridge belts in a criss-cross pattern, a bayonet scabbard with the largest knife allowed per company policy and a two way radio that you answer 10-4 every so often as it crackles indistinctly. It also wouldn't hurt if there was a little blood on your jack-boots. All fresh blood looks the same, so you may have to kill something on the way to work to get in the mood.

Alternatively, you could tell him that singing like that causes his car tires to go flat. After a couple of days of this coming true, where he will be watching you like a hawk, you may have to hire a delinquent kid to do the deed.

In the event he takes the bus, it is a little more complicated. You will have to weld up some of these double-pointed nail "jumping-jacks" and throw them under the bus tires just before it gets to the bus stop. It's important that the bus already be going slow, as you wouldn't want anyone getting hurt over just some annoying singing.

If all this doesn't work, come back here and post. Sooner or later, someone here will develop a successful idea.

I am so lucky in that most locomotive diesels drown out the singing conductors.

Wes
