Job

I love my new job. Its in the cité du multimédia, which is great. Internet access is coupled with working 10 out of 60 minutes. Ahhhhh. Also, we had two ice cream parties this week! Sweet!

Another long weekend

yep.. another long weekend... so this means no work monday morning for you job people...
Sunday night at korova, we have Sexyboy, who's absolutely great and will make you dance... i know that some of you were there at green room when he was mixing last winter (or fall, i can't quite rememeber)...


Also, La Fraîcheur, this hot chick from Paris that came to korova a few weeks back will be going back to Paris and we're having a farewell party for her at korova sunday sept. 9... if you missed her the first time around, make sure to catch her this time around...

Quit Being Cool

I recently read an interesting article, here's a bit of it:

We live in an advertising culture where we are constantly told that the only thing that stands between our current state and wholeness is a particular commodity. It's the central lie of our culture, and the people who hate mainstream culture the most seem to cling to this lie the most intensely. Notice how many "alternative" people define their non-conformity by how readily they conform to an alternate standard? How they buy objects that articulate their rebellion for them? It has become so ingrained in our culture that the current crop of teenagers makes no distinction between consumption and expression. They are frustrated that consumption alienates them from their own feelings and desires, but they express that frustration by consuming more commodities. It's a vicious circle. Let go. Quit being cool.

This is fine in theory, but not in practice if this is what happens...



There are limits, you know.

Motivation

There is only one way to motivate poeple at work (sorry Christophe Lambert, I stole your line)

Des pisseuses : Le peuple québécois

Check out THIS bridge collapse in Fenghuang County, China. Now THAT'S a bridge collapse! Here in Québec, a tiny overpass falls and we get death by inquiry. I don't know what they do in China, but I'm pretty sure it involves finding the one black guy who worked on the bridge, then executing him.

Attention, ce n'est pas drole. C'est un sujet tres serieux.
