I have been spreading this all around the office lately, but it really belongs here: http://notalwaysright.com/ For everyone who ever had to deal with Customers From Hell.

And I cannot believe no-one has posted http://xkcd.com yet!

This description makes me wish that I live in Portland but most assuredly want to visit, if not to see this cool sounding store:


Welcome to Hippo Hardware Online
A Portland Institution since 1976. Specializing in original and reproduction hardware, lighting, and plumbing.

At Hippo we rejoice in all sorts of fun projects brought in by employees and customers alike. In the past we've wired a blender into a table lamp, made door knobs into coat hooks, and searched for oven cord to finish a young girl's science project. We believe in supporting individuals and helping each person achieve whatever goals they've set for themselves. Hippo Hardware contains four major departments: Lighting, Plumbing, Hardware, and Architecture. Also sprinkled about the store we have many things like antique coffee grinders, old picture frames, vases, and car repair manuals. We do have a UL certified lighting shop to wire any purchases you make or to repair a light you already own. All lighting is available in custom lengths and many finishes. Below is a brief sampling of items you can expect to find in each department.

Utne Reader had an article about WPA (Works Progress Administration) posters from the mid-30s, and there's going to be an online archive of the posters over at www.wpalivingarchive.org but it's not up and running yet so in the mean time this site tells a wee bit about it and seems to be the home for the future archive. Maybe there's something you can do to tie the two together? Whatever you do, I'd love to read it, if you don't mind. (Whatever the "it" is, a paper, presentation, whatever)

We have two of these, so I'm bumping both so I can go through both of them ... not sure if one is "better" or more complete than the other, but I wanna look over lunch.

I think we thought this one had vanished or been deleted! That's why the other one is indefatigable!

Wonder why it's back now...
