As the news seems to report more and more jobs being sent overseas, I am happy to report that we probably don't have to worry as much as we're being told. For instance, while checking out the specifications on a recently ordered product from a company that proclaims that it is American, I found this gem:

"This product don't contained restriction substance, compliance ROHS standard." [sic]

That's right. [sic] indeed. Apparently they spent their money on engineers who can slap together four different substrates, and had to resort to hiring Timmy from Mrs. Kooney's third-grade gym class to do the technical writing.

For those who enjoy streaming radio and ranting lunatics who claim to own everyone's psyche because he took two semesters of psychology in college, may I recommend Radio Free Colorado? Not much on the site itself, but occasionally the guestbook has others ranting back at him. The actual radio format is classic rock (generally good, but repetitive), but that's not the only reason to listen. [blogger's note: after finishing that sentence, George Harrison started playing - so the songs are still a big reason I listen]

While the station remains commercial-less most of the day, somewhere between 2:30-4, the manager, Gary Burke, comes on and asks for donations. This is where you find out that those who post complaints on his site are all from competing stations (I know that's not true) and that he knows what everybody is thinking due to taking two classes of psychology in college. Anyway, it's quite an experience - I recommend a listen.

Now it's back to the work grind I go. Here's hoping Gary pays us listeners a visit before the day is over.
