5/11/2007: Stephen Has Completed "Pee-Wee's Playhouse"

This actually turned out to be a somewhat difficult task. It was pretty darn embarrassing at moments, but you know what, it turned out alright in the end.
No one said "room" at home. I then stopped by work in Morganton and fixed some stuff. One person said it there, to which I let out a strained yelp, which I'm sure confused them. Before lunch, I came to work in Hickory, where Allison and our coworker Daniel were well prepared to let me have it. I'd say I had to scream (albeit restrained) about 20 times prior to lunch. I seriously don't know why no one ever asked about it. Anyways, I recorded two sound clips during that time span. The first is of Allison and I talking. Obviously, as you will be able to hear, it is staged. However, upon seeing Daniel walk in the room, I turned on the recorder and got the second clip, which is not staged. After that, we went to lunch at Jason's Deli. This was the prime moment of the task. After Daniel and Allison let our coworker Erica know what was going on, she proceeded to use the word "room" a bit more than normal. As I screamed and screamed, I exercised less and less restraint. The last one was just flat out loud. I heard it echo off the walls on the other side of the place. While I stared blankly at the table, avoiding all eye contact, my coworkers informed me that probably over half the people in the place were staring me down. I let out another one in the parking lot when I got a text message from Nathan that asked if we were "eating in the dining ROOM". The only one I refused all day was when I was sitting in a meeting with my main two bosses and looked out the door to see Daniel holding a big white sign with ROOM written on it in big black letters, though the task didn't actually say I had to do written ones... ;P
So, in the end, it wasn't THAT bad, but it was, at times, pretty intense.

5/10/2007: Stephen Accepts "Pee-Wee's Playhouse"

Ok, I will do it, though I can't say I will put full effort into the screams in the middle of the office, but people will hear them anyways.
The word will be ROOM.

5/10/07: Allison Assigns "Pee-Wee's Playhouse" To Stephen

Stephen, since you are taking Brandon's place due to his lack of wanting-to-do-rutlessness, I'm going to give you a pretty easy task. I'm sure since you are a child of the 1980's, you watched Pee-Wee's playhouse on TV. If you remember correctly, Pee-Wee always had a secret word of the day. Every time that secret word was said in the episode, everyone around had to scream. Your task is to pick a secret word and every time someone says it during the day, you must scream. Since I'll be at work with you tomorrow, you have a choice of posting what this word is ahead of time, or not.

Requirements: Try to capture video of yourself doing the task. If not, I'll be there and I can vouch for you. I'm looking forward to hearing you scream. :)
