Your not fooling anyone, we can all hear snoring coming from your cubicle.
I didn't say *where* I was going to sleep...
Thank you. I'll take the Score:5, but it wasn't meant to be funny.
> I was saddened to see Ballmer go.
Agreed. If nothing else, he was entertaining.
Really? Or has the captain issued a press release intended to placate passengers while doubling down on the course into the rocks?

I think the most useful talent I've developed is the ability to go to sleep fast and to wake up fast and alert. When the phone rings or pager goes off, the faster you can reach "full on", find and fix the problem, and get back to sleep, the more sleep you get in the long run. Cohorts who have trouble getting to sleep after a late night emergency tend to be seriously dragging by the end of their oncall time.
I recall seeing this effect in some series from the nineties and earlier in a movie. It's an obvious but not terribly useful technique that we've know of for a couple decades at least. Did I drift onto the "idle" page by accident?
From a practical standpoint, it depends on who doesn't like him.
This is only one data point, but it seems like every third forward on my Facebook account is another anti-Monsanto amateur ad. Going by that, I would say that quite a few people have heard the name. Whether they are really acquainted with the issues, of course, is a different matter.
It could more accurately be called "the companies that geeks hate the most".
Hm. I wonder how that compares with live tiles.
The cost of feathers has risen, even down is up!
