I learned it’s 100% true that all edits and production files arrive at precisely the same time, just because they can.

*rubbing hands together*
Not even a to-do list longer than Billy Idol’s tox screen is enough to keep me away from Denis Leary. (Authors and eds, if your stuff is late, blame Renee and Frank. They sent me WHY WE SUCK for xmas. Yes, I love them. Oh, and Denis? Paganini, Booger and Princess Moo [...]

All Minnesotans must be in some way retarded. We live here voluntarily.
My The Ref DVD is scratched. This is a crisis.
The people who dictate ereader device technology should spend less time on WoW and more time with publishers. (Remember us? Those people who do all the work to provide them with profitable content?)

MEA weekends are really long.
Campaign seasons are really long.
Despite what I might have believed before, the Vikings can still get worse.
