Read MoreIf you wonder why I keep blogging on these “unfunny” topics despite all the begging to stop, it’s partly because my hit count goes though the roof when I do, and partly because the comments are fascinating to me. People asked me if I ever changed my opinions based on…
Read MoreThere’s something very Dilbertish about the problems in the Middle East, in the sense that the root problems are based on absurdity, the leaders are incompetent, and the people who are just trying to mind their own business are getting screwed. It’s a lot like your job. What the region…
