Technological breakthrough
If, like me, you spend a lot of time in front of your computer, it's likely that you take some of your meals there as well. Now your monitor is probably a little messy, what with flecks of food and spray from soda littering the glass. I've developed something that will automatically clean your CRT screen. Open the extended entry to see this invention.

We're back
Thank you for your patience. Or in
some cases, not. :->
Hey, I'm entitled to a little vacation with the wife and children sometimes, and I don't own a wireless enabled laptop.

Some years ago when we existed in Chicago and were coming up here (Wisconsin) for a week, my boss asked me to bring my answering machine along. (I think he would have scored in negative numbers on the eq test.)
It was shortly after that i quit.

Frank reminds me of a not-so-distant-past work experience:
I had planned my vacation 10 months in advance, purchasing really cheap, non-refundable airline tickets and some great hotel reservations. About 2 weeks before I was supposed to leave, everything went all to Hell at work. When someone tried to schedule a meeting during the time that I'd be out, I mentioned that I wasn't going to be available, as I would be out of the office. The person with whom I was speaking said, "Yeah, it's tough when you have to reschedule your vacation time." She gave me a puzzled look when I mentioned that I wasn't about to change my vacation plans due to someone else's fuckup. If looks could have killed, she would have struck me dead right then and there. Anyhoo, I've been working somewhere else for the last 5 years.
