At the team building workshop that I attended somehow the topic of IQ came up. (I really don’t remember how). What started out as a discussion about emotional intelligence ended up turning into essentially a bashing of people with high IQ, and then migrated on to smart people, in general. You know, the old smart people do not have any common sense bit. Anyhow, although ...

where were you?
Today, five years ago, I was in a meeting. My project group was discussing promotional events and we were not getting anywhere. Finally, wrapping up the meeting, we were quibbling over when the next meeting should be.

what’s your hex sign?
ok, so I’m finally getting around to painting my kitchen. I bought some paint to cover over the very poor quality interior paint that was there when I moved in, but I hated it, so it still sits in my closet.

I love the little bit of coolness to the air (not much though, because this is the hot south); I love the goldenness of the afternoon sun; I love apples (ok, I don’t live near apple orchards, but I like the idea…) and the other fall foods ...

how video killed the video star
I thought this was an interesting article about D-i-Y videos excerpt: So what do music fans do when they have cheap cameras and an easy way to share their work with other fans? They sing cover versions of their favorite songs, or show off their lip-synching skill, or do silly little dances. On YouTube this means that artists sometimes end up competing with their own ...
