Details of the Not-So-Obvious


Har! Har!

Office 2007

I just installed Office 2007 Ultimate. Neat programs like the following:

Word
Excel
PowerPoint
Access
Groove
InfoPath
OneNote
Outlook
Publisher
& all the tools, etc. associated with the package.

I waited as long as I could with 2003, and then I could wait no more. So, out with the old and in with the new.

Oh, yeah. I also found a slew of pdf's about how to use all this new-fangled stuff.

But, please. Don't ask me how much I paid for it all. Then I'd have to lie to you.

The Art of Advice

Most people talk too much when they're giving advice.
On and on and round and round they go.
Back to the beginning and then
Right down the same fool path.
Again.

Advice is an off-beat matter.
Those who need it won't listen.
Those who listen don't need it.
Give advice that matters, and do it in one sentence.
Then STFU.
