Ok I know it’s silly but I just discovered answer tones.  If your unlike me until a few hours ago one can replace the sound which a callers hears (rather than rings) with music or any number of things.  Ok I know it’s a bit hight schoolish but it’s fun.  They even provide a web interface to manage what callers here what sounds.  I am such a geek !! 

“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’ ”

--God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater

“Robert Kennedy, whose summer home is eight miles from the home I live in all year round,” Mr. Vonnegut wrote at the end of the book, “was shot two nights ago. He died last night. So it goes.

“Martin Luther King was shot a month ago. He died, too. So it goes. And every day my Government gives me a count of corpses created by military science in Vietnam. So it goes.”

--Slaughterhouse-Five

I have been thinking as of late about ego.  How much is good when is it too much.  I must admit I have a bit of an ego but nothing compared to some of the people I work with.  Why do some people away have to one up all the time. I know this sound a bit like sour grape, but I don’t think this is the case.  I truly think some people are in love with the sound of their own voice.
