No, it isn't! I just finished cutting my lawn. It's a great day!

I've come to the realization that the age of the people in my favorite bands bugs me more than my own aging.

Any time someone says "I am going to be totally transparent about this" they are hiding something.

My crappy and incompetent engineer decided to dump explaining to everyone why the work isn't done right this minute to everyone in the world (essentially blaming me for the hold up). I responded in a manner fitting as a lesson why you do not ask designers to do these things. Now the plant is mad at me for insinuating they can't read a print.

I guess that's one of the perks of working at a company that's barely hanging on; I'll probably get away with it.

The fucker has some nerve considering how many times I have bailed his ass out not to mention I am not the cause of the hold up. I can only take the time to do the work that those who own the data *cough* Germany *cough* never bothered to do.

Crackpot--I've seen that happen many times. What do you bet the engineer gets a big promotion and/or bonus. :shrug

How is that one can floss, brush vigorously with toothpaste and swill the entire mouth with water (twice) and then.... after all that.... one good rinse with mouthwash yields what looks like a smorgasbord of the last three days?

I doubt it. Everyone knows this guy is barely hanging on. He keeps his job because they can't replace him. (A downside to working for a company that is barely holding on)

That's probably exactly the way he looks at it as well... 8-)

That would require the ability of self reflection. As we all know that is not a quality everyone has.

Well not all the former is sort of a requirement for the latter.

Is pi any more of a pattern because there are large groups of the same number in a row?

Is it any more of a pattern if one expresses the same random thought two times in a row?

If random thoughts are the same for two posts in a row, are they truly random?
