50/50
I'm going to be working half the week at Roswell, and the other half the week on a project outsourced from India to the US. What a strange world.

taft? i thought it was wilfred brimly...

I'd vote for Taft in 08! He's from an era when republicans made sense, when they realized trust busting encouraged the free market, not the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few. Did you see in my post that the bottom 80% of america owns 9% of the wealth? and that statistic is from 2001!
FDR is my man though. I'm ready for a New New Deal that includes Health insurance.

this has nothing to do with your post, sorry, just wanted to give a shout out for William Taft.

I wonder if India is more expensive than Buffalo right now, lol.

Nice! Hopefully more and more companies will realize the benefits of keeping their IT projects "in house," nationally-speaking that is.

Home Sick Part II
Still have the cold/nausea thing going on. Missed an important meeting today. Think I might try to get a bit more sleep. Feel like I'm going to puke. Shouldn't have eaten that banana maybe.

Feeling much better this afternoon. I'm only nauseous in the morning, do you think I might be pregnant?
jason - 01/11/08 15:03
Work will always be there, man. Feel better.

I told you not to make coffee with the ipecac.

So Sick
Category: life
Sick. I know I know, there are people much worse off then me (hi Paul). But I've been feeling like crap all week and had to take off from work again today with the flu/cold that's been going around. That's like half this week I've been off.

I'm not tired and can't feel asleep but can't really concentrate so I'm just kinda vegging out at the computer but I'm so freaking anxious to get back to work and get some shit done.

Yuck. I really hope I feel better tomorrow but I think maybe I've got another couple days of this to look forward to.

awwwww chicken soup!
james - 01/10/08 22:55
well, cancel my plans for the next week. I am penciling in horrendous illness.
libertad - 01/10/08 22:32
Hope you get better soon.

I have no idea what was wrong with me. On Tuesday I had to call off two jobs and a buddhist meeting all in the same day. I almost never have to call in. I don't think that it was the flu at this point, it was very come and go and I didn't feel muscle weakness like the flu just general weakness that made me sleep a lot.
paul - 01/10/08 21:51
I hate having a cold more than anything. Get well soon.

My Birthday is Coming Up...

...why don't you get me a taser/mp3 player?




libertad - 01/12/08 16:01
That is awesome that you can taze someone without interrupting the music. It would be so annoying that if every time you tazed someone the music would stop and you had to listen to their screaming.
james - 01/09/08 08:29
that man's tie was...(wait for it, wait for it)... SHOCKING!
