Caution Yellow

Yesterday I wore a yellow shirt. Apparently not an ordinary yellow shirt, though. This shirt was so yellow, people commented that it seemed to cause a cooking effect on the cornea. And possibly their retinas.

A few also seemed to notice a low frequency hum when I was near, which they attributed to my shirt. Even the cell phone reception was spotty (yes, even spottier than it normally is, thanks Cingular), but I just thought all this was coincidental.

Then the guys from IT came to my cube and asked me to stay away from the East end of the building. I asked why, and they reluctantly told me that my shirt was interfering with the wireless network, and the East end is where the signal broadcasts from.
Pictured is AJ telling me nicely to change clothes or stay away from the East end...

Which is a shame, because I really like that shirt. I had figured we needed a little sunshine on these gray and drizzly days.

Maybe I should test my clothes first at Best Buy in the electronics department.

The yellow thread of exposure seems to be inextricably woven into all fabrics whose strength is secrecy, and experience proves that it is much easier to become fireproof than to become exposure proof.

That yellow shirt of yours is much better than a pair of homemade shorts.
