Not This Quarter from Merlin Mann on Vimeo.

More classic Phone Guy with the one and only Merlin Mann.

Oh man... This doesn't really relate to anything, but I just had to post it. Its definitely the funniest thing I've seen in a long time, and the best part is that the guy totally reminds me of Bret and Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords. Totally deadpan, completely ridiculous.


This is classic. I think it may have been more powerful if titled Douchebags, 2007, but I guess I can just reserve that for myself for the upcoming year.

Favorite line:

[Michael Vick] Makes millions for throwing ball, decides to invest in gambling on dog fights. How much dumber do people get than this?

So today we had a little July 4th potluck at my work. Why not on Tuesday, you ask? Well, Fridays are "Shorts Friday" so they decided to do it today and up the ante to "T-Shirts & Shorts Friday", which makes sense because you just can't have a July 4th party without seeing your boss in a really cheesy get-up. Unfortunately I was not able to get a picture of that, but I did capture this gem:

So I just realized that they have classifieds & job listings on Myspace now. My initial reaction was that Myspace was probably one of the worst possible forums for this type of service, and my instincts were quickly proven true as I scrolled through and found this listing.

There's two things wrong with this situation. Do you really want potential employers to see all the crap you have up on your page: spring break photos, comments from your stupid friends, drunken messages from ex-girlfriends, etc.?

The other thing to think about is whether you want to work for someone they call "~~Queen Bitch~~"

Just something to think about.

Last time I logged in to Flickr I was surprised to see these two cowboys hanging out in my photos. I don't really know any cowboys... unless, of course, we're talking about space cowboys, in which case I know quite a few.

I guess it was just a database error that got those two guys in my thumbnails, but it threw me for quite a loop. Anyways, stay tuned for cool photos on my Flickr page.
