Everything BACON

Does this fit your office behaviour?

Basically, there are three trays: In, Out, and Shake It All About;
the last one was where he put everything
he was too busy, angry, tired, or bewildered
to do anything about.

Terry Pratchett, Snuff

And, talkin about behaviour:
In the scientific world,
the Not-Invented-Here bias is
fondly called the “toothbrush theory.”
The idea is that everyone wants a toothbrush,
everyone needs one,
everyone has one,
but no one wants to use anyone else’s.

Dan Ariely, The Upside of Irrationality

Besides that?
Nothin happens.
Not really.

Writing my book,
hoping it gets finished SOMEDAY (anyday!),
preferably befor this years photokina,
and playing around with a few cameras.

oh, and working, of course

Newest Entry.

It will be over faster than you know.

So, what are you doing?

Really?

Nooo!

Tell me more!

Actually, that’s a lie -I am not interested and currently I’m trying
to get the Comments-Field out of wordpress. And since the Theme isn’t
quite standard, that isn’t easy. If you want to know why – I just don’t
care about comments anymore, at least on websites (every website). So,
if you wanted to ask. Just saying.
So, what else? Read somethin good lately? (If you answer “No, I rarely
read” – Get the fuck out. Now.) I have, but it isn’t exactly a discovery
Iain Banks is and Old-Time-Favourite, even though the Wasp Factory was to harsh fpor my tastes. But for example “Against a Dark Background” was fun – with Passages like:

“Aah…Yes, and how does madam wish to pay?” She slapped her credit card on the counter. “Eventually.”

Also from this novel:

“Power today rests in the hands of the lawyers. Those
whose function it ought to be merely to help regulate have—following the
failure of nerve in those with the rightful claim and historical
provenance required for leadership—come instead to legislate. By their
very nature, they will ensure that having taken the reins of power into
their hands, they cannot legally be wrested from them. What has to be
remembered by those who care for the future as well as the history of
our species is that law is no more than an abstraction of justice; an
expression of a society’s political will and philosophical conceptions.
Truth, right and justice are processes, not states. They are dynamic
functions which can only be expressed and understood through action…And
arguably the time for action is fast approaching. Thank you.”

And with Bacon, Baby, you can drive my car.

Thx Daniel!

Just because I can might not mean that I should, but if I shouldn’t, cant I just because?

He met his day in the shower, washing his hair with shampoo that was guaranteed to have never been put in a bunny’s eyes and from which ten percent of the profits went to save the whales. He lathered his face with shaving cream free of chlorofluorocarbons, thereby saving the ozone layer. He breakfasted on fertile eggs laid by sexually satisfied chickens that were allowed to range while listening to Brahms, and muffins made with pesticide-free grain, so no eagle-egg shells were weakened by his thoughtless consumption. He scrambled the eggs in margarine free of tropical oils, thus preserving the rain forest, and he added milk from a carton made of recycled paper and shipped from a small family farm. By the time he finished his second cup of coffee, which would presumably help to educate the children of a poor peasant farmer named Juan Valdez, Sam was on the verge of congratulating himself for single-handedly saving the planet just by getting up in the morning.

Coyote Blue (Christopher Moore)

All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become drunk on violence, a condition to which they are quickly addicted.

Bureaucracy destroys initiative. There is little that bureaucrats hate more than innovation, especially innovation that produces better results than the old routines. Improvements always make those at the top of the heap look inept. Who enjoys appearing inept?
