What a gyp ending to Beauty & the Geek!  The duo that won featured neither a true beauty nor geek.  Richard, the absolute king of geekdom, was robbed!  Pure entertainment.  He was like Screech, Urkel, and that electric violinist from Revenge of the Nerds blended together - except an even worse dancer.  At least Screech had The Sprain.  Just goes to prove that you simply can't win in life with JUST booksmarts or ridiculously good looks.  Unless by life, you mean life on Earth and not an isolated big brother mansion hosted by Brian McFadden. 

So anyway, I'm happy to report that my new hire started last week and has been really solid so far.  Once he gets up to speed, its going to make my workdays sail.  Will finally get to tackle some side projects that I've only been able to scratch.  Ya know, I am slightly concerned that he will find me on Xanga, Friendster, Facebook, etc. and I will lose all professional credibility.  On that note, I'm giving it a total of two weeks before I start taking mornings off and wearing t-shirts to work again.  This good impression thing has its limits.  Nice, only two days left!

       things that make me go Hmmmm ...

why did the Catholic church annoint a new Pope that is one banana slip away from dying?

if steroids were safe, would it be allowed in sports?  (because one day soon, something like that will be safe)  If not, why are physical enhancements like lasik eye surgery allowed?

how is it that can I still listen to Usher's Burn everyday?

what percentage of people would not be faithful to their current religion if they weren't raised with it?

why didn't i get a dvd burner sooner?!

are there real-life Jack Bauer's and Jason Bourne's out there?

do alumni really need to buy tickets to Slope Day?

                                                      hmmm ...
