Good morning, Mac, and happy Tuesday, GN. Sure there’s much going on in the world, little of it good at least according to the media and teh intertubes. But so it goes, eh?

Bullshit work slogan of the day that I’m sick of: “Diversity is our strength.”

I remember 30 years ago where the company I worked at was developing their mission statement -- they were all the rage back then. What they came up with: “We are totally committed to a quality effort designed to achieve customer delight.”

Not much has changed in 30 years. Still all a bunch of meaningless pap.

Happy “Now what do I do?” Tuesday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Sven!

Sven -- that’s a great mission statement for our times. It speaks of intent, not of outcome.

In re: “Diversity is our strength”, I prefer “e pluribus unum”.

Long night ahead tonight. I got up fairly early this morning, I should get a nap, but I don’t know if I wanna.

Should vs. wanna. I think “should” should win.

On a lighter note, I helped get the house cleaned up and free of debris, and took a lot of stuff to Good Will.

I even took our old TV which I was thinking about using as a monitor. But I decided my monitor situation is fine, and there is no need for more clutter.

So most everything extra is off the floor now.

So that good, at least.

A vision-impaired musician reminded me that today is Brenda’s birthday! Happy birthday, Brenda -- in celebration, Mac is organizing a caption contest, right Mac? Mac?

After your nap, it will probably come to you.

I’m thinking that Tex was an April born as well? Anyone recall her birthday?

It’s BK’s birthday??? Well then, this calls for a celebration! I’m trying out a new baker and gave them free reign to create the perfect BD cake for BK. Let’s see how they did.

Yeah, that’s what I was afraid of. Fortunately, I have a back-up baker on standby. Let’s see how they did.
