I was randomly going through the magazine pile at my parents house and came across this. Kinda odd that they have one of these still. I appreciate my mom's commentary in the background - even she can't believe the ESRT used to have a built in ruler!

I randomly came across a box of ephemera* last week. It included this cool hand written plane ticket from 1964. That's how they used to do back in the day.
*ephemera - items of collectible memorabilia, typically written or printed ones, that were originally expected to have only short-term usefulness or popularity. You're brain on office work [sound on]. yes, the fluorescent lights really do that. We don't even notice. Picked up this amazing piece for free the other day. 1970s 3-dimensional fiberglass wall art. Monstrous at 57 inches wide(!) My original plan was to donate it to the Albany Parts Warehouse, but it may have to spend a year or 2 hung over the sofa in the basement first.
I was showing Danny how we used to make ice cubes back in the day. I really enjoyed the play last night, it was great to see everyone up there. I was definitely impressed with the performances all around. And man, that stage managing was next level, right on Sasha!
[clip of Smashing Pumpkins "Siva"] when the guitar kicks in at 42 seconds - good Lord! So I need to prove to a computer that I'm human. And I do so by clicking on a box.
I didn't think the future would be this weird. Working in an office...well, how do I say this...it sucks. It just does. And a big part of the problem is that people you work with lean into making it suck. And one way they do this is with overuse of the "reply all" button on email. Not that I'm against the reply all option, it's a tool that I'm glad is available. But there's always that one person (or 3) who use it incorrectly. And if they used it incorrectly, they will invariably overuse it incorrectly. I got so angry today I decided to start a project that I'm calling REPLY ALL. The only rules are it has to be a reply all email that was sent to 6 or more people. And I, as the creator of this project, cannot use a screenshotted reply more than once - each needs to from a separate email. This is just the beginning, I'll be adding more every week. I hope you enjoy my work.
