Possumblog

Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Please go read Quana Jones and her Stint With the Prickish Princes. A sampling:

[...] By and by I was assigned to 'work with' them on a project. As an aside: what I didn't know at the time and learned later was that they'd already pissed off everyone else assigned to them. All the other chemists and engineers had refused to work with them, even under threat of dismissal. I was the newest kid on the block, I was more than competent at my work and someone finally decided to burden me with these ignorant young men. Just another example of an instance when doing your job well pays off with a nice, hard kick in the ass. [...]
