Dear Dr. Dobb’s Portal and Rally Software

A two-page PDF of what is essentially two glorified PowerPoint slides does not count as a whitepaper. No, not even if you give it a title like “Build Release Plans That Deliver Customer Value.”

Please stop wasting my time with this shit.

Congenially yours,

Historical blindness

Something the GOP forgot, when proclaiming that HCR would be Obama’s Waterloo: the Duke of Wellington had a Waterloo, too.

I find myself vaguely disappointed…

…that the newly-arrived spam titled “Fwd: New bachelors for you” is not an equal opportunity variation on the particularly clumsy and stupid “I [Name of Allegedly Hot Russian Women] Need To Talk To You Again” spam I’ve been getting lately.

Diploma mill and mail-order bride spam is boring. Mail-order groom spam would be a welcome relief to the monotony.

Not that I’d gloat or anything…

No, scratch that; I would.

This evening’s blast from the past was brought to you by my referrer log…

Remember that jackass troll, John H McConnel Jr and his third-rate social networking site, UnderpantsGnomesLifestyle.com eCountryLifestyle.com? I got a visitor tonight who was referred here by a Google search for eCountryLifestyle.com, and yes, I’m still in the first few results for that abomination.

Evidently they crashed and burned. Who would have guessed?

Clearly I’m a small-minded fool who doesn’t understand the internet.
