Blogs as a tool to impress co-workers

As many companies do, ours has an internal engineering list to which random co-workers submit random messages with random geeky-urls..

Lately, every single article submitted has been one I've read on another weblog days before.. So in theory I could make a list from my blog-reading list, submit that once a week and beat my co-workers to it..

.. but that's too easy.... fun to think about though.

While I'm on the topic of work.

I work for Tickets.com -- that's the actual company name - Tickets.com. Snail mail is always fun.. today I got one addressed to..

Kasia Trapszo
Tickets Dot Com

I remember seeing one from Network Solutions that proclaimed we can put Tickets.com.com on the web today! One would think a registrar would know better.. particularly our own.

Tickets.com.. it's dot com. (Cookie for the one who gets this).

You mean all I have to do is write:

Kasia Trapszo
Tickets Dot Com

On the letter and the postman will know where to send it? That's kinda scary. They're really trying to make it hard for the stalkers, eh?

"Hello! And welcome to Homestarrunner.net..."
"It's Dot-Cot!"
"Right, Its Dot-Com!"
"Cut..."

That's the exact scene...

Or my favorite...

"Hello and welcome to I'm a stupid idiot who can't remember his lines dot com."

(that stie rules)

USed to live in a small town in upstate New York. A friend of mine who used to live in the same town moved back to her home in Flint, Michigan. So when she sent me a letter and couldn't remember my address she addressed it to...

Aaron Brazell
I don't remember where but it's in
Lima, NY 14485

The letter was delivered to my house 3 days after she sent it.

A letter was sent to our Senior Pastor:

John Arnott
Toronto Airport

... And got to him. Almost like Harry Potter or something ;)
