Planning the Plan


In a presentation we heard yesterday, a question was asked about some details in a training plan, but they said it was still being negotiated. Of course, that means the plan is still in planning. That led to this comic strip.

Tigger Yellow


No, I don't actually drink, but I needed a means to imply that Mr. Blue painted the wrong apartment. I also used that same idea for Mr. Green's final sarcastic comment. By the way, we did not actually use 'Tigger Yellow' to paint my daughter's room, although we did paint with that color once. Maybe it was her bathroom?

Steve Jobs for President


Steve Jobs is famous for his "reality distortion field" that surrounds his product announcements. Everyone falls under his sway and wants whatever he is pitching. Hmm, what would that mean if he were to run for public office? And what things might he design/redesign as part of his platform? I decided he might want to clean up the lines of our borders. And he might decide we don't need so many individual states.

Dot Their T's


I am sure you have all heard people twist the phrase "dot your i's and cross your t's" so that it is "cross you eyes...". Someone used that phrase in yesterday's conference call. I did not think much of it, but then in a meeting later in the day, someone mentioned that they were wondering how I would handle that in CoV. Well, with a challenge like that, I had to see what I could do.

Lettuce Accident

I heard about a semi overturning this morning, spilling it load of thousands of pounds of lettuce. At the time I came in, the key freeway coming in from the west side was totally blocked and they expected another six hours for cleanup. Of course, my mind immediately went into overdrive on ideas about lettuce, so here is my comment on that.

Mouses


Words fascinate me, especially in English. Our language is built on so many other languages and cultures, so words do not always follow clean rules. Today, we will examine some plurals.
