Luck-free March!
Anyone who knows me well will tell you that I do not take compliments well. I either accept them effusively, with the gracious enthusiasm that one would reserve for a firefighter that rescued their cat from a tree, or I reject them completely. My rejectionS often come down to the fact that I don’t feel like I should take credit for my good work. No matter what i did to make something good...

BOO SOPA YAY SOAP
OK, gotta say something about this. I get that SOPA sucks, but I am getting sick and tired of people who own websites that profit off of repurposing copyrighted material and not paying for it acting like theyre little digital Paul Reveres because they blacked their stuff out today. Of course sites like Tumblr hate SOPA! If there was a way to shut down a site for using unlicensed images without due...

Its a situation that I’m sure you’re familiar with, especially if you’re a fellow member of the husky pants club- you’re trying on some clothes you haven’t worn in a while. Maybe you bought them that summer you were walking a lot, or borrowed them from a friend in a spate of optimism. But hey, this is kinda…tight? What’s going on? And then you look in the...

The next time I interview for a job, I'm going to...
Interviewer: What interests you about our company?
Me: I hate it and think it should be dismantled.
Interviewer: What are your primary qualifications for the job?
Me: I would systematically destroy your company.
Interviewer: Why do you want to destroy our company?
Me: Your company has a successful and diverse market line and a global presence. But when it was incorporated, the founders had envisioned a little mom and pop operation. I think we need to return to their vision.

Hey, to make an omelet, you’ve got to shoot highly pressurized water and sand into the Earth’s fragile and unpredictable crust with very little government oversight.
Can some one please explain to me why we’re OK with a process that causes earthquakes? Was our regional planning done by a Bond villain?
