Truth

If I’d written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people — including me — would be rotting in prison cells from Rio to Seattle today. Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism. - Hunter S. Thompson

What a crazy world!

With the hustle and bustle of daily life it’s no wonder that people are commonly exhausted.  Just ask any of my coworkers on a Monday morning how their weekend was, the answer’s always the same “Not long enough” it’s not just my office however, everyone feels the grind at their place of employment. Maybe the Europeans have it right with their four day work weeks and extensive “holidays” (their term for vacation). Who else out there would love that sort of thing, and have the security of a “normal” job? It seems that you can do this if you are running your own business right?  According to my colleague Ash, you sometimes work even longer hours and less days off.  Sad to say the weekend will probably not get any longer in our lifetimes, so just stop complaining that it was too short and make the best of it people!

Happy Friday, and the iPhone price dropped people (I still won’t buy one for fiscal reasons) so be merry!

mellow and relaxing

Well, as it’s labor day today, I have not labored one bit, I woke up, ate a bagel, watched some tube, went for a walk and laid around lazily.  I don’t do this often enough, we were going to do a barbecue this weekend but it didn’t turn out to be in the cards because I’ve been feeling a tad ill the past few days.  Just relaxing today to make sure I’m bright eye’d and bushy tailed for work tomorrow.  Well as writing feels close to labor right now, I’m going to close it up, just a quick post to check in.
