And no, it’s not Axe body spray or anything — I mean, geez, how transparent can marketers get? No, ahoy, I want to be like Bruce Campbell. That’s right, Ash just exudes mojo and everything else follows. Go Old Spice!

Now you too can don a virtual balaclava, sell drugs, bomb cars, throw petrol-bombs just like a Northern Ireland paramilitary would! No more sitting at home wishing you had the courage to run your own prostitution ring! Well, I suppose you’ll still be sitting at home…

I’m gonna try it tonight…

Its well known that a majority of drivers believe that they are “above average” (not me though) — so many, in fact, that it obviously can’t be true.  (Let’s just let that statement stand without examination, I’m pretty sure I can find stats to back it up.)  Their definition of “average” is inconsistent with reality.

So what does it mean when more than 30% of Canadians think they are workaholic? (not 2D though) Does it mean, that like the above-average drivers, that it can’t be true, and their definition of “workaholic” is inconsistent with reality?  ie: who cares if you work 50 hours a week, so does everybody else, you’d better be doing 60 hours before you can call yourself addicted to workahol…?  Or should there be hard and firm rules for what a workaholic really is, and we should all collectively take this as a wake-up call that our work/life balance is messed up??

Discuss.

Didn’t think so.  Just made it back to town after going to a conference in Hamilton and then visiting Slanty3D in Buffalo.

Only comment for the moment — getting booze confiscated at the airport sucks, how on earth are you supposed to get a simple bottle of wine home safely??
