March Madness

I know I have a lot of friends who don't know what March Madness is so let me explain. It is a college basketball tournament for the National Championship. Basically they go from 64 teams down to 1 in a matter of weeks. What does this mean? I'm sitting in front of my big screen TV for the majority of the next few weeks.

I did think there was a pretty interesting invention that I though I might mention. During March Madness a lot of the rounds are on Thursday and Friday so the NCAA made it so you can stream all the game straight onto your computer for free. (I have a VIP pass so I can get them quicker :) So last Thursday and Friday my production level was at about 4% because I was watching the games all day. I almost fell out of my chair a few times watching buzzer beaters. Anyways all the to say on the screen they stream the games on there is a button called "Boss Button" you click it and the entire screen because a huge spreadsheet! So if you hear your boss or anyone for that matter you can quickly hide the fact that you are indeed not working. If you look closely the spreadsheet is graphs of how much snack food and drinks are consumed during games. I thought it was pretty clever of someone to think of that.

On a side note I'm third in my office pool! GO UNC!!!!!

$9.99 Down the drain

I recently went to "The Hills" to mooch hotel rooms off my good friends Jen and Esther. My mom's only request was that I find Judy Garlands start on the walk of fame and take a picture of it. There are thousands of starts so I pop into a store to buy the book showing you where each and every start is. Esther looked at me in disgust as I bought the book for regular price without trying to bargain a couple extra dollars down...

So I open the book and start walking down Hollywood and as I'm looking at the book I look at the star I was standing on and wouldn't you know. Yep, Judy Garland. I had bought the star map six stars away from the one I was looking for.
