Why aren’t the basic laws of mathematics clean round numbers? Why are pi and e irrational? What secret is hidden down in the depths of these numbers?

I’m recovering from cancer and caring for my wife who has severe post traumatic stress as a result of natural disaster.

• I have a shower most days
• I get dressed most days
• I turn the dishwasher on when it’s full, and empty it when there’s no more room in the sink
• Occasionally I sweep and vacuum
• I mow the lawns every few weeks

That’s pretty much all I can do at the moment, but I’m slowly getting better.

International Talk Like a Pirate Day, the Pastafarian religious holiday celebrated on September 19.

Well, they were discovered in China, so it won’t take long, but they won’t tell anyone until it’s been spread to other countries.

One time, we were given six month’s wages plus a month’s wages for each year we had worked there (I had been there 12 years). The company paid for career counseling, resume training, self awareness (similar to Myers Briggs only it was useful), use of an office space and computers and printers to hunt for jobs.

Another time, we were told that our entire IT department wasn’t important enough to keep and our jobs had been outsourced to India. But they still wanted us to stay for four weeks and train our replacements. Bitch, if I’m not important enough to keep, then I’m not important enough to train anyone. I collected my stuff and walked out that day.
