How Many More Bush Appointees to Walk?
Just how many high profile Bush appointees will be asked to resign, or will resign of their own accord before Americans catch on that this boat is aflame and sinking and decide to impeach Bush/Cheney? Something’s gone very very wrong and the rats are jumping ship. Time to do the right thing America. ImpeachBush.Org

Yesterday, I denied a LinkedIn request. The day before that, I asked my childhood “boyfriend” who he was before I approved his Facebook friend request. I deny MySpace friend requests regularly. I am a practitioner of anti-social networking.
Online hermit? Maybe. My friends/following/contacts lists are full of people I either went to school with, work with, or met somewhere along the way in life....

It’s not you, it’s me: Back to WordPress
So remember that time a few months ago when I ported whole bunch of posts from WordPress to Blogger? Well now I’ve gone back to WordPress. You may wonder why I went through all that just to come back to WordPress so I’ll break it down for you. When I started interviewing for my current position, I figured, I need to know about this company and it’s products. So I started a new blog on Blogger....

Allez Cuisine!
So today I experienced the best food I have ever eaten in my life. No, I didn’t go to some 5 star restaurant in New York. I had marvelous food right in the relative comfort of my own work place. Every so often, the chefs at work compete in a food battle for bragging rights. This battle goes down Iron Chef style, with a secret main ingredient and all. I was one of four judges in today’s competition...
