    • Different companies, different standards I just spent a few minutes chatting with a gentleman sporting a denim Utilikilt, one of seven that he owns (one for every day of the week). Unfortunately, while the company I'm working at obviously has no problem with kilts in the workplace, the company I work for is far more strict with their dress code.
    • Analysis saying Kerry won? I'm not entirely caught up with the post-debate threads that made it into my newsreader last night and this morning, but according to a couple posts from Kos last night, I may have been too pessimistic in my debate wrap-up — people seem to be giving Kerry a definite win.

    • Who’s gonna swerve first? It's not 'conspiracy theory,' as some of my readers have accused me, to suggest that Bush may not actually want to spend the lives of Americans to invade Iraq. It is quite possible -- no matter how evil or misguided you believe Bush to be -- that he would rather not waste a few hundred or thousand American lives, or a few hundred thousand Iraqi lives, on pipelines and additional security against nuclear/chemical/germ threat.
    • Microsoft switchers – oops! Unfortunately, since Microsoft (apparently) couldn't find any customers that had actually made the switch from the Mac to Windows, and were happy about it, and willing to talk about it — they had to combine a hired freelance writer's story with stock photography.
