The climax of last week’s Office. That’s what she said.
Most Ridiculous Penn State Press Release
Penn State Live: Avoid holiday family feuds between female relatives. A public service from your favorite land grant institution 🙂 I guess it’s an interesting area of research and there’s probably no time better time than now to remind people, but still its pretty hilarious that they would post something like this.
Team-building Activity Breaks into Fight
City gas bash explodes into mass brawl. A “morale boosting” function turned into a fight when employees brought up layoffs (redundancies in the UK) earlier that year. Sounds like something ripped straight from The Office.
Cult of Mac
Scobleizer: The brand promise of Apple. “Any idiot can use an Apple machine (that’s what they tell you before you buy one) but if your machine crashes then you must be a “genius” to fix it.”

I finally got my HDTV at work – I may never watch SportsCenter the same way again.
Launch Pad Takes Off
Collegian: Company aids student entrepreneurs. Consultant, entrepreneur, and college roommate extraordinaire Rob Shedd is interviewed about his Lion Launch Pad.

Blink! The World is Tipping
kottke.org: Malcolm Gladwell’s new book on the workplace of the future. Gladwell is one of my favorite authors as I’m a huge fan of The Tipping Point and Blink. This follow up is about training and educating works for the future – which also seems to touch on The World Is Flat. Jason Kottke pulled a bunch of Gladwell’s previous writing on these subjects to keep us busy till the book comes out.

The Rich Get Richer
Guardian: I should pay more tax, says US billionaire Warren Buffett. Buffet pays roughly 17% in income taxes, versus the 30% his secretary does.
