Happy Birthday!

Best wishes from all of us at IJAD to cpMaia, whose birthday it be today. She's a fellow Alaska expat, so she's not all bad. In fact, if she were listed in a guide book, the summary would probably be "mostly bad".

In all seriousness, have a happy one! Or two? It's your birthday, why not make it a double?

It's great malicious fun to read a post that wishes someone a happy birthday while glancing periodically at the blog title under which the post is published.

And I wasn't even trying for irony. Bonus irony for everyone!!!

(Really, I changed the title of the blog like a week ago. The real question is to what does it refer?)

Thanks for the birthday wishes... I think. ;) There's still some Flying Dutchman Black Forest cake left in the parental fridge if you change your mind and decide to hit up the A-K for Christmas.

Ruled by Secrecy

CONFIDENTIAL NEW BUSINESS PLAN Given the advancements in Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) technology, it is now possible to create the world's next great invention: The digital bumper sticker. See, OLEDs don't use a lot of voltage, can be almost paper-thin and are actually brighter than conventional LEDs using the same amount of power. This next generation bumper sticker (NGBS) will affix to your bumper or rear window as normal, but it will have a wireless connection to your cellular phone (WCTYCP). Flash memory (like in the iPod Shuffle) will keep each slogan displaying on the NGBS for at least 3 months without requiring a recharge/replacement. The advantages of this NGBS for the investor are so many as to boggle the mind, but I will outline a few for you: No more stale slogans. If your candidate lost, you can instantly update your Dennis Kucinich sticker to read "Don't Blame Me, I Voted Kucinich!" We think this will be a great revenue stream. After the l

Use them in combination!: "Gil slammed fellow carnie Sal's insinuation that he got a bit too personal with a badger. "It was cold and he wasn't even there!" the one-eyed Whack 'em Cats operator fumed." That's right, kiddies. Anyone can write a gossip column. And with the internet, anyone can publish it, too! p.s. Don't forget to put a salacious slant on everything. And blow things out of proportion, too. In fact, you may want to change your middle name to that.
