Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Thanks, Barb!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Yeah, things have Not Been Fun in the publishing industry this year. Luckily I'm fairly certain my job is safe as long as the company itself is solvent, but workload pressure is going to be increasing and there's no question of bonuses or even cost-of-living raises for the foreseeable future.

At Random House, Wednesday's reorganization has sewn great confusion.
C'mon Washington Post blogsters! It's "sown" not "sewn."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The only problem with the Strange Buildings is that this one is apparently destroyed, not strange: [link]

We can compromise and say it was destroyed strangely.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
C'mon Washington Post blogsters! It's "sown" not "sewn."
Hopefully someone will figure it out soon.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Interview fail: this woman shows up 30 minutes early for her interview here, and is sitting in the reception area, poking away at her Blackberry, which she has not put on mute. So there's lots of beeping from it and sighing from her. This interview is for a very senior position.
I would not hire this woman, but I'm judgmental like that.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
The stuff that happened and happening in Hebron this week made me so sad and angry, and a little bit scared.
Also, since I served in the IDF between 2004-2006, and trained with the forces to evacuate Gaza Strip settlements in the summer of 2005, it's very weird to see forces with weapons and different evacuation technique (not that I believe in those settlements or their so called "right" to be there, but that's another issue. With all of my lefty political opinions, it is very hard, emotionally, to evacuate people from the ground they consider as home).

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
