Oh dang! I don't think that was there the last time I checked, I just took more or less this same role on an internal transfer where I'm working now. Thank you! Will definitely throw my hat into the ring for this one!

That video inspired me to get off my ass and start looking for companies to work for who have a mission I'm in love with. It's tough because my specialization (infosec) is mostly valued in industries I don't give a shit abou

It’s not something we do regularly lol. But eating just the butter lets you find all the subtle flavor elements, some of which are off putting. Also you should definitely try drinking strait vinegar, it’s interesting.

My youngest daughter and I set out to do a butter tournament in which we would pick the best tasting butter among all of those available in our local supermarkets. I believe we bought about $60 or $70 worth of butter and tried them on toast
