Holy shit his wife is hot.
I interviewed for a QA position at (Deleted to protect the guilty) where I had to answer a bunch of brain teasers like this. I always prepare thoroughly and even enjoy solving these sorts of puzzles, so I knew most of…
Holy cow - when you read this article right after this one: http://reason.com/archives/2006/03/01/why-poor-countries-are... it really blows your mind. I think the nay-sayers are missing the point of this article - it…
Oh man, I smell meme potential :D DOUG: When is Joe's flight due it? YOU: Why do you ask? DOUG: Oh... umm... there's a seminar at 3:30 PM I thought he would be interested in. YOU: What seminar? DOUG: The underlying…
Question popped into my head: why is Colin Winter wasting his time with idle chit-chat like this? Is he bored of Unladen Swallow already?
