but I don't think I'd get anywhere boycotting MoDOT.
I see what you did there.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

In terms of HP. Call public relations. (Public communication, whatever they call it). Escalate to a VP? If neither achieves anything post to consumerist.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I spend an inordinate amount of time at work planning how to put HP, IBM, and Oracle out of business.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I hate to say it, but given my location and occupation, I kinda hope this one doesn't work out for you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had a breakthrough on my Hated Project, mostly thanks to a coworker! And I only ate two of the cookies that my department kind of stole. OK, they are huge cookies, so two is pretty excessive, but STILL. (And we only sort of stole them, because we saw them in a conference room on Friday, along with sandwiches, and the cookies were still there this morning. They should have been tossed.)
In short: Phew!

BTW, I set up the Good Stuff blog to auto post 4 times a day -- does that sound right? So I've been queuing stuff up like that, although I've also posted some stuff directly.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think it's nice to think that that much good stuff happens on a daily basis.

I tried to put up a post on Good Things Happen, but don't know what happened to it....
Oh wait, there it is! (The People Are Awesome vid that starts with a wheelchair flip.)
