I use one of the free online kanban options. It was a bit of a revelation when I started. My kanban has 5 columns: Backlog, Next, Now, Paused and Done. Next can only have 5 items in it. Now only 3. I add new to do’s to the backlog and they move through Next and Now as I finish items. There are no deadlines, only…

Fart jokes will never be not funny. 

That is exactly what I figured, about 7 years ago. My boss had cut my hours to 30 hour a week a year or so ago (say what you want about why, but the entire portrait photo industry died when Obama took office.

Why is this car so pissed?

Gen 2 Ford Thunderbird.

I’d say the ‘58 models looked better in the downmarket versions. The Buick had too much bling. Here’s a Delray (which was the car I learned to drive on).

Worry not Bo, Wings Hauser will be with you soon.

Buying a new laptop or desktop computer can be daunting. One of the most important things to consider is how much RAM you need. Today we’re going to talk about what RAM is and does, and how much you really need to get your stuff done.

Different take here. I regret none of my car purchases.

And vinyl. And bumper/fender extensions. And portholes.

Look at us old AF Gen X’ers! Anyone getting hung up on my using two spaces after a period (*gasp*), referring to a PPT file as a PowerPoint presentation (*clutches pearls*), or leaving a voicemail (*faints*), can go fuck themselves right out of the office and into the middle of a busy highway.
