    So The big news of today is that… 

    So…. The big news of today is that I got laid off again. FROM THE SAME F*CKING COMPANY that laid be off on 10/5/01. They apparently made their decision on Wednesday, but decided to wait until today to tell me – thus ruining my entire weekend, and bringing me down from the very nice 4th that I had. They could have told me then – I could at least have tried to have a good weekend (and had a few more beers at the party). But noooooooooooo.
    And no, I still won’t tell you where I work. I used to not name them ’cause I didn’t want to be found during web searches of them (it actually happened, and the CEO was the one doing the searching!). Now it’s out of shame and disgust. Mostly disgust.

    Cheeseburger Cheeseburger Cheeseburger 

    I felt a lot like Dan Akroyd/John Belushi in the Greek diner sketch from the “classic” days of SNL – I was cooking them burgers up almost faster than folks could eat them yesterday. Even my hypercritical brothers-in-law said that my burgers were “perfect”!!!
    So, based on the success of the burgers, and the success of the pork chops the other day, looks like I’m a success on the grill!
