i loved working at the ‘hoo, but there’s definitely something rewarding about being at the start of something. time will tell if it’ll be something huge, but being at ground zero and slinging the same blood in the same mud with people who have just as much a vested interest in the product as you do…and so obviously care about the product – is pretty fulfilling. it’s reawakened something in me that i had worried was fading and has made me realize how invaluable my time at the ‘hoo has been. i don’t care what you google bandwagon jumpers say. outside of search and maps, yahoo pretty consistently beats the snot out of the rest of google’s offerings. and how many of you can REALLY discern how much different search results are from one search engine to another? heh.

i’m really lovin the new mac i have. wish i had the time to fully transition over to it as my primary dev machine. i should clone myself and kick me in the nuts just for typing that.
to say that i need sleep would be an understatement.
very much like saying all guys think about is sex. or women can’t drive. or that jessica alba’s baby daddy is one lucky mofo.
sometimes i like to take a break from it all and wallow in lowbrow humor. cracked.com rocks – http://www.cracked.com/article_15853_6-cutest-animals-that-can-still-destroy-you.html
