With time being very valuable, it’s important that we don’t waste it. I try to make sure I respect everyone’s time that I deal with. I show up on time (or early), I show up prepared and I’m honest with my intentions. I think if we all worked this way, everyone would be happier.
If you are late for some uncontrolled reason, showing up prepared helps keep things efficient and being honest and up front allows everyone to know where they stand and make better judgments on how to proceed. Why work any other way?
This week’s competition was an epic game of Pass the Ace.
The Dianamo
The objective is to get the highest playing card (King). If you have a low card or an Ace you can steal the next player’s card. The player with lowest card in each round is out.
With the last Pass the Ace game still fresh on our minds, old rivalries resurfaced. Over many rounds, player after player was eliminated; their departure was punctuated by the rousing rendition of “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye”. In the final battle, only Steph and Dian remained…but alas Dian (aka “the Dianamo”) walked away with yet another win. Until next recess…
Happy 100th Birthday!
Milk's favorite cookie is 100!
Over 491 billion Oreo cookies have been sold since they were first introduced, making them the best selling cookie of the 20th century. Its most recent packaging slogan is “Milk’s Favorite Cookie”, which is a slight change from the original, “America’s Favorite Cookie” (though some packages in the U.S. still use the original slogan).
The company was first founded on March 6, 1912 in Chelsea, New York City. Oreo is celebrating their 100th anniversary today, March 6, 2012.
How do you eat Oreos?
- One half at a time, starting with the frosted side.
- One half at a time, starting with the unfrosted side.
- Without breaking them apart.
- One box at a sitting.
- Not at all.
