successful bills computer
I discovered what I call the Bill Gates effect. That is, the more successful you are, the uglier you get.
clothes nudists unnecessary
On the fourth day of telecommuting, I realized that clothes are totally unnecessary.
thinking people age
I calculated the total time that humans have waited for web pages to load. It cancels out all the productivity gains of the information age. Sometimes I think the web is a big plot to keep people like me away from normal society.
science going-away may
Dilbert: It took weeks but I've calculated a new theory about the origin of the universe. According to my calculations it didn't start with a "Big Bang" at all-it was more of "Phhbwt" sound. You may be wondering about the practical applications of the "Little Phhbwt" theory. Dogbert: I was wondering when you'll go away.
ideas people want
There's no such thing as good ideas and bad ideas. There are only your own ideas and other people's. If you want someone to like your idea, tell him he said it first last week and you just remembered it.
attitude nuts optimism
For the record, I am not a nut. I am an optimist. That's exactly like a nut except with a better attitude.
vocabulary brain limits
Your inability to see other possibilities and your lack of vocabulary are your brain's limits, not the universe's.
mean firsts i-can
Just because no one has ever gotten better from Spasmodic Dysphonia before doesn't mean I can't be the first.
philosophy phones loser
My philosophy is that every phone conversation has a loser.
sleep night thinking
You might think the word "homemade" is just a word we use as a marketing ploy. But what you don't realize is that the staff sleeps here at night. If your tablecloth is wrinkled, that's why.
average investing schedules
A person with a flexible schedule and average resources will be happier than a rich person who has everything except a flexible schedule. Step one in your search for happiness is to continually work toward having control of your schedule.
wisdom smart knows
Am I getting smart with you? How would you know?
wisdom needs dilbert
Tell me what you need, and I'll tell you how to get along without it.
wisdom way flow
Management is nature's way of removing idiots from the productive flow.
