Job-hunting nowadays really sucks. With so many people out of work and not too many IT jobs out there to choose from, the salaries of IT professionals are going down the drain.

What I learned this past week: – There are TONS of suckers in the world. Did you know that horse racing is a $15 billion a year business in the US alone? – “Teabagging” sometimes does NOT refer to a type of drink. – I am more in the mood to do work when I’m […]

The VH1 Classic channel is an insomniac’s best friend! I had another bout of sleeplessness last night and I decided to watch a little telly to make me sleepy. The videos they were showing though were so good that I ended up sleeping at around 5 or 6 AM this morning. Among the videos played […]
