Most people are self-centered not self-interested

And they say you don't tug on Superman's cape You don't spit into the wind You don't pull the mask off an 'ole Lone Ranger And you don't mess around with Jim Everything I need to know from life I learned from movies. For some reason, most people are walking around with a superhero complex. As Smith would say: You believe you are special, that somehow the rules do not apply to you. People are wrong. Or rather: People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals. The most important part of that is dumb. Sometimes I want to hit people with a CLUE X 4 and ask them what they expected to happen. And if I see one more person who looks like T.R. Knight this week I am going to think that it's fate.

Economy class sucks

It's pretty ridiculous to set your phone to speaker when you are the only one talking into it... And it disturbs your neighbors who don't want to hear your conversation.

OK, I'm a week behind

Bauer vs. Robocop is almost as good as Superman vs. Batman

Sometimes the bitch just needs to go

And sometimes, it's the son of the bitch For the first time in my rapidly approaching 30 years on this planet I am turning to food for comfort.  Chocolate to be specific.  Which incidentally I hate.  Both the chocolate and the crutch.  Of course I suppose that it is marginally better than dragging out the bottle of vodka.

I have no fucking toilet.

I've got a split personality

Many moons ago I took a test to see what types of jobs I am best suited for. According to the test I am:

Investigative Individuals: put a high value on math and science. are curious, creative, and studious. like to work with theories or unproved ideas. prefer to work alone.

Conventional Individuals: prefer jobs with clearly defined duties. like to work with words and numbers. are orderly and systematic. value financial success and status.

Artistic individuals: prize independence. enjoy creative activities such as music, writing, entertainment, and art. appreciate the artistic work of others in museums, theaters, and books. actively seek opportunities for self-expression.

Am I the only one who sees the problem with a creative analyst? Apparently, because none of my employers have figured out that the best thing to do is just let me do my job without hovering.

I could seriously listen to to Dennis Haysbert speak all day long...

And since Jennifer doesn't want Scott I am more than willing to take him.  Michael too for that matter.  Seriously.

Today's lesson: why fight a battle you cannot win?

"You can be sure of succeeding in your attacks if you only attack places which are undefended. You can ensure the safety of your defense if you only hold positions that cannot be attacked." - Sun Tzu

So much to learn, so little time...
