It's Monday

And we all know what that means. Time for another MOTW, Manager of the Week. As you can see by the description it's too bad if you end up working for this next manager at the tail end of his/her career. Happy Halloween.

MOTW: Brain Dead Manager

At some point in his/her career Brain Dead Manager had something going on. Unfortunately, by the time he/she reaches your office this is no longer the case. Brain Dead Manager’s tenure is characterized by a lot of confusion, frustration and angst among his/her subordinates. Typical symptoms of Brain Dead Manager disease include sitting completely still for long periods of time, blank stares, demonstrating awe at anything relatively new and inarticulate grunts.

Weekend Haiku

A bath when you're born,
a bath when you die,
how stupid.

Set Fire to the Rain

Adele performs Set Fire to the Rain live. What a set of pipes! She is awesome. Enjoy and happy Friday.

When you know your days are numbered...

Miami Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano puts his house up for sale, ostensibly because he is an "empty nester" now. The coach is asking 1.49 million for the house. The real question is which will happen first, a Dolphins win or the house selling. With the Dolphins at 0-6 and the housing market being what it is right now in South Florida, neither event is looking very probable in the short term.

Giant Lego man washes ashore

Only in Florida, Siesta Key to be exact. He is about eight feet tall. Is this a scout sent before the invasion? And what about the cryptic message on his chest..."No real than you are." Obviously the Lego race speaks another language (Legoese perhaps) and are just getting the hang of English. But what does it mean? We may never know unless more Lego men appear to clear the mystery up.

It's Monday

And we all know what that means. Time for another MOTW, Manager of the Week. Since it is football season once again, I thought we would revisit this next manager. As they say, hindsight is 20/20.
