Tribeca, Manhattan
Fire Alarm: “BeepBeepBeepBeep”
Mysterious Voice on the PA: “Can I have your attention please!? We have received a signal.. from.. the roof.”
Mark: “The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire!”
Fire Engine: “WhooWhoop”
We did evacuate, but luckily it was a false alarm. Under an orange, high-threat security alert, it was more than a little stressful. That, and the fact that our office vending machines have been out of both Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke for more than a week, has got everyone on edge.

To make it worse, the deli downstairs is also out of all Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke in bottles.. I hate buying the cans down there because they make you pay double the price of our vending machine.
There’s this old man in the deli who keeps giving me these little paper guides, “How to Get to Heaven”. Do I have sinner written on my forehead or something?
