FML


Hard to believe, I know, but this upstanding fellow has had a minor scrape with the law: drunk driving his truck with a zebra and parrot on board. (read the article)

That's not what bothers me, though. What bothers me is he is 55 years old. LOOK AT HIM! Dear god, he's younger than me.

FML.

Why My Job Is More Fun Than Yours

The office building I work in is undergoing renovation. Like most office buildings, the work areas consist of actual offices with walls and doors, and cubicles. In my area, the cubicles have all been reconfigured and we are adding two actual offices. The offices in the building are all consistent with a nice wooden door next to a large glass wall that's framed by nice wood to match the door.

Two large wooden frames without glass are propped up in our hallway, waiting for installation. A lot of people probably walk by them and take little notice. A carpenter might see them and think "that's really nice wood." An accountant might think "Wow, I'll bet those cost a pretty penny." Count on an art director, however, to say what he's thinking: "We should totally set fire to those and jump through them."

I love working with creative people.
