April Tools

First, Google is pulling a pretty funny today-prank by claiming you will soon be able to send mail with a timestamp in the past -- you know, for when you forgot to send grandma her birthday email.

A testimonial from an investment banker
"I used to be an honest person; but now I don't have to be. It's just so much easier this way. I've gained a lot of productivity by not having to think about doing the 'right' thing."
My grandma actually uses email. I wonder if that's common.



Hemingway supposedly claimed his best work was a six word story: "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." If he didn't say it, I gladly will.

Wired had some authors write six word stories, but none are even in the same league as Hemingway's. My favorite: "whorl. Help! I'm caught in a time" by Darren Aronofsky and Ari Handel.

I now officially lead the way for a new Mixed team, which will largely consist of former Moes. The story?
"Electing defaults takes way too long."
