True Story...

Reposted from Scott Adams' Blog:

"I have a funny story for you about the security people at (company name deleted). I was leaving on a Friday afternoon with my laptop in hand (not in the case) and was stopped by security and told that I cannot take the laptop with me and that it had to be inside a bag.

I asked why and they said that there had been a lot of computer thefts. They asked where the bag was. I told them that it was attached to my bicycle which I had to leave at another building because they (security) won't let me take it (the bike) in with me. After a momentary standoff, they said I could fill out a form to take the laptop with me and I said that I would.

They then said that I could not fill it out - my manager had to. I told them that my manager doesn't work in the building, nor does anyone in my management chain. This posed a problem for the crack security team. At last, they formulated a brilliant solution to the problem. They told me that if I had grocery bag in my office I could put the laptop in it and everything would be okay . Of course, I don't have grocery bags in my office. Who would? I did have a windbreaker, however. So I went up to my office, wrapped up the laptop in my windbreaker, and went back down.

I don't see how this prevents theft because now it really looks like I am stealing the laptop. Satisfied that they had performed in the line of duty, the crack security team
let me go on my way."

Oh for Joy!!!

Dilbert is now in a Widget!!! You can check it out on my side bar. Woohoo!

Religion: Why it Should Affect Your Vote

Why should you vote for a Christian when you are a Muslim, a Buddhist or a Jew? And why should you vote for a Catholic when you are a Protestant, or a Baptist, or even a Mormon?

I think Scott Adams have pose a good question and provide a great answer to this conundrum. Go and read it in his blog about:

Religion and Politics

World's Most Funniest Man

And now for something completely different (and less depressing than discussions on why I am the World's least sexiest man)...

Scott Adams (of Dilbert's fame) is dead set: The. World's. Most. Funniest. Man. Period.

Read his blog on his chance encounter with the World's Most Annoying Man to see why.

(We shall resume my self-loathing-filled dissection of my anatomy in my next blog entry... Stay tuned!)

What a Mind Trip!

The reason why I love reading Scott Adam's blog is that he always find some way to make me:

1. laugh loudly;
2. think deeply;
3. question reality as we know it.

These blog entries is of the latter categories, where he attempts to define intelligence and what entity actually possess it:

• Intelligence and The Big Bang
• Objections to his definition of Intelligence

Please engage an open mind and enjoy his wacko theories.
