yesterday, I got to throw a pair of pliers through some windows of our garage because it's coming down tomorrow.


fun.


two days prior, I was parking to meet m'lady and a friend of ours after work. I heard a HUGE bumping stereo coming up behind me. as I got out of the car, I realized it was just a kid on a bike pulling a two wheeled cart with a 20" speaker on the back of it.

just pedaling and bumping, bumping and pedaling.

I just ordered a pair of Tater Mitts™ at a reduced price. Whoo-Hoo!

That is amazing. I wish I had seen that.

I've had this boss who insists that "the customer is always right."

I then remind him that (1) customers often contradict each other (so they can't all be right) (2) if we did everything a customer ever requested or suggested we would quickly be out of business and (3) if the customer was always right they would be able to enter our industry and eat our lunch...but they never do.

I enjoyed this, and all of it.

I'm going to treat those as required reading for this week. Cheers!

I was talking to a friend in the pub last night and he told me that in a past incarnation he was a kamikaze pilot in a space craft in the future.

He was serious

The C.I.A are phoning him up as well as it happens.

Cross your fingers for good weather in Leeds this week. After reading that post, I want to print that thread out and take into the park on my lunchbreak.

I just stayed up past my bedtime reading that whole thread. So great!
I reckon it's about time for a revival....

I saw Ratatouille, and it was really, really good.

I highly recommend it, especially if you like

a) rats
b) food
c) "foodie" culture
d) all of the above

It also contains one of the most "adult" lines I have ever heard in a "kids" movie, but none of the kids I saw it with got it.
