I remember how grateful I was when I received a 25% pay cut after the dot-com bubble burst and tried to take the small consultancy I worked for with it. Not everyone made it, there were some layoffs, but all survivors got a cut in pay.

Didn't OS/2 bake a bunch of those things into the operating system where they belong? Why don't we use it? Multiple "Product of the year" awards (I've seen 4 in a row but cannot confirm). I'm still a fa

I have the opposite reaction to the word hipster. The first time I heard/read it I knew _exactly_ what what it implied even though I couldn't (and still can't) succinctly define it. It brings an image to my mind and a smile

My solution: don't print. I find very few reasons to print anything. I get kinda irritated when I have to. I donated blood recently and was miffed that the RapidPass required printing out. Why? I have a phone.

"A pint's a pound the world around." I never knew whether that came from the fact that both are 16 ounces or because a pint of water weighs a pound (approximately). I prefer to think it's the latter. Makes it so I can
