Unpacking Our Learnings
In the corporate world, it is imperative to leverage bandwidth so as to capitalize on all the low-hanging fruit, while maximizing best practices and core competencies, simultaneously enhancing our value proposition.
Ugh. I feel dirty. Hang on a minute while I disinfect my keyboard…/squirt /squirt…There. That’s better.
As a refugee from the corporate world, I have had to learn to speak and write English all over again. I have the double handicap of having spent over a decade working in information technology. IT greatly accelerates the decline of literacy because of the field’s over-reliance on acronyms to describe just about everything. Technology isn’t real until there’s an acronym for it. Even jokes are spoken in acronym. PFM and RTFM are two old chestnuts I have uttered more times than I care to remember.

419 Fun
Is there anyone alive who hasn’t gotten one of these 419 emails yet? I didn’t think so. Just like bad sci-fi movies, they are enjoyable on so many levels: preposterous premise, bad sentence construction, bad use of tenses, hilarious Engrish, and downright cheekiness.

This Post is Brought to You by the Letter “C”
Contrarian critics casually cause chaos in careful constructions by contending for control of content in cascading clashes of caustic contact and corrosive condescension. Considering the catastrophic conclusion consequent to such conduct, confirms a cruel and cold-blooded character calculatingly concentrated on crushing confidence while cavalierly capering on the carcass of conscientiously crafted creations. Such callous cross-grained cads call for condemnation for their complete…er…uh, crapulence!
Those with the ears to hear, let them hear…
Bear Down!
It’s the Best Time of the Year
Sunshine, warm weather, green grass, late sunsets, the sound of the ice cream truck playing Turkey in the Straw as is wends its way through the neighborhood…ah, July.
The sounds, the smells, they all remind me that this is the best time of the year…because there’s less than a month till the Bears report to camp!
