Blue and yellow make green.

Upon seeing the picture on another computer, I am curious about what might have been done to the colors of the image (the color is a little wack on my monitor here at the office). I would be highly unusual if ink colors other than cyan, magenta, yellow and black would be provided in such large totes, but the "blue" and "red" shown do not look even close to cyan (which is a much paler blue) or magenta (which is a pinker/bluer red).

Not necessarily a fail, but it amused me.

Oh, how I wish I had been able to capture a picture of this.

You know how you will sometimes see people walking the streets/mall/etc. wearing a painter's mask? I believe it started after the SARS scare. Sample:

Well today, I saw a woman (not the one in the picture above) wearing one of these masks.

Except she had it pulled down to her chin...

Spoiler:

I believe the practice is to wear the mask when one is sick to prevent the spread of the disease one has rather than to prevent catching something.

Yes, that is the norm. Though also frequently an attempt to forestall airborne allergens.

Government employees have been invited to submit ideas for reducing government spending. Only government employees can submit through this system. To enforce this restriction, one must register by using a government email address on an outside system. Upon registering, the system sends you a confirmation email, which you must use to validate your account, which you must do before one you are allowed to submit ideas.

Sadly, these confirmation emails cannot get through our firewall. There is no solution anticipated.

Fail.
