I wish you had some Legos right now. Building a Legos set can be very distracting.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Coloring books can be soothing as well. There's something primal and happy and waxy and gripping about it.

My college housemates and I had a stack of coloring books that we'd get out when we were fighting with each other and needed to have some sort of discussion. We'd color away while we said our piece, and listened to the rest. We're all still friends, so it seems to have worked out.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I read once that there's a cargo cult in the South Pacific that believes Prince Phillip is the incarnation of their volcano god, moved awsay to marry the Empress of the World. One day he will return to them, scantily clad, bearing gifts of cigarettes and refrigerators.
They wrote to him once explaining this. He sent them an autographed picture of himself.
Anyone surpirsied I love these guys??

I was thinking the same thing.

Christ! Are they at least helping the migraines? Because if not, I'm not seeing a whole lot of upside to putting yourself through that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Many HR departments for video game companies put up ads for things like Sound Designers but want them to have computer science degrees and be C++ programmers and the like. While those are nice skills, they are pretty ancillary to doing sound design for video games and disqualify a large quantity of brilliant artists who should be working in the market.
Yep, you see the same thing crop up in video editing. Ironic because the flip side is that it's so cheap now to turn a laptop into an edit station that many news organizations are cutting back on hiring editors and sending their writer/producers out on FCP and Avid Xpress training courses instead.
