I think the Discovery Channel should be on a different channel every day.

When it comes to eating right and exercising, there is no 'I'll start tomorrow.' Tomorrow is disease.

Too bad I didn't see this earlier, when Neo was learning accounting by osmosis.  Web based white noise.  Cool!

White noise is produced by combining all frequencies together. If you took all of the imaginable tones that a human can hear and combined them together, you have white noise.

Brownian noise (Brown noise or red noise), is produced by Brownian motion.  The term "Brown noise" comes not from the color, but after Robert Brown, the discoverer of Brownian motion

Top Ten things you’ll never hear from a consultant

  • You're right; we're billing way too much for this.
  • Bet you I can go a week without saying "synergy" or "value-added".
  • How about paying us based on the success of the project?
  • This whole strategy is based on a Harvard business case I read.
  • Actually, the only difference is that we charge more than they do.
  • I don't know enough to speak intelligently about that.
  • Implementation? I only care about writing long reports.
  • I can't take the credit. It was Ed in your marketing department.
  • The problem is, you have too much work for too few people.
  • Everything looks okay to me. You really don't need me.

  1. Yes Brad, if you would have discovered the online white noise machine earlier, I would probably be in upper McHale management by now.

    I like the eating right and exercising quote, because the whole New Years Resolution thing drives me nuts. There's no reason to wait until January 1st to start anything!
