Stirs me to the bottom of my TPS reports


What can be said about Office Space that hasn't been said better elsewhere? I'll simply add that I watched Office Space a few weeks ago on my birthday with a couple colleagues who live here three and three quarter days a week. I guarded my birthday as closely as tobacco industry marketing plans because of such scenes as the cake-cutting in the Mike Judge movie. Incredibly, my colleagues had never seen the movie. Quoting favorite lines ensued and continues.

P., whom I met on my first project with this company three years ago in Seattle and is here in Louisiana, gave me a belated birthday gift yesterday (see picture). It's the offical Milton stapler. Neat coincidence: I first saw Office Space in Seattle three years ago.

'Yeah, I'm going to have to go ahead and blog that for you.'
