Wow. Yo, Anthony Smith – I suggest you start working immediately on a time machine, so that you can take that stupid guarantee back. There are a few minutes available to me before Spouse and I jet off to Christmas party The First (Office edition) this evening. The logistical problem I should be trying to solve right now is “how to keep seven pounds of perogies warm prior to transport and consumption at a remote festivity” – the office […] Things are crazy busy for me at work right now (like, Unabomber crazy, not just regular crazy), and added on top of all that earning-a-living stuff are some social obligations.
