BCS football championship = great. Heisman/BCS championship winning quarterbacks using the post game interview to preach = really fucking annoying. Also, to my knowledge, Auburn is no longer Methodist or religiously affiliated. That was a large players’ prayer circle at the end of the game for a secular university.

My favorite part of the blizzard was reading everyone’s minute-by-minute updates of their holiday travel situations on my Facebook newsfeed.
HAHA JUST KIDDING
Unfriended these insufferable people.
Currently on the way home to CT from NYC for the last time (in the near future) for Christmas. It’s one of those journeys where you really have time to think about what you are doing (during the transfer at Stamford) and I am just so happy to be about to see my family. I know that the biggest challenge of the coming years will be having to be removed somewhat from my brothers’ lives. I’m looking...
Corporate Holiday Party...FAIL
Last night, I had our first of 3 corporate holiday parties. With a combination of no one yet knowing that I’m transferring to our UK office, already spending too much time with most of these fuckers, and food not served till about 8pm (3 hours after the drinking started), I got pretty effing drunk. Not sloppy, drool on yourself, make a fool drunk; just happily, don’t-give-a-shit...
I’m knee-deep in about $10k of expenses, and the 65-year old dude who sits on the other side of the office just came over and asked if I could get him any “ganja” before our corporate holiday party tonight. Obviously he thinks I’m way cooler than I actually am…
Timing, you are a mofo.
Two Questions
1 - Why would anyone ever propose a date on a Monday?
2 - Is it okay to continue dating if you know you are moving across the Atlantic in 2 months?

“What I think she could add to that even is to explain what the real witchcraft...”
– Sarah Palin
She’s like conservative Mad Libs. Take a non-sensical sentence, throw some right wing buzzwords in there and you’ve got yourself a Sarah Palin quote.

My Life in Short Pants: People really do this? →
The other day I stopped flipping channels on an episode of True Life about young newlyweds. One of the two couples featured had not only not slept with each other before their wedding, but had NEVER KISSED. Not only never kissed each other, but NEVER KISSED ANYONE. (Shocker, they’re southern.)

Yamasaki received the World Trade Center commission the year after the Dhahran Airport was completed. Yamasaki described its plaza as “a mecca, a great relief from the narrow streets and sidewalks of the surrounding Wall Street area.” True to his word, Yamasaki replicated the plan of Mecca’s courtyard by creating a vast delineated square, isolated from the city’s...
