Resignations of lesser renown
- “In these past few days I have arrived at the difficult decision that my pursuit of new opportunities in general management will be in the best interests of my colleagues here at Kinkos Store #4157 on Sheridan Ave. It is my hope that their work, processing thousands of pages including 25 cent color copies daily, can continue without interruption.”
- “I have failed to live up to the standards I set for myself as lead singer of BITCH KILLAZ and for that, I am very sorry, and also drunk. I thank my bandmates for their love and understanding during this difficult time and hope that they will rock on and kill bitches not just for me, or for them, but for everyone.”
- “In looking ahead to my senior year of high school, I will be vacating my seat advising the President of the Class of ‘09 to focus on my studies and spend more time with my family.”
- “Two years ago I attempted to lose a great deal of weight and, in an effort to cut my calorie intake, I began drinking Diet Coke. I started with just a can a day, but despite my best efforts, it became increasingly difficult to limit my consumption. I am confident that my fellow executives here at PepsiCo will support my effort to take the time I need to seek treatment for this personal, professional, and painful problem.”

Cooks Illustrated Recipe: Boiled Water
Cooks Illustrated Recipe: Boiled Water
by Cooky McKitchener
Like many people, I enjoy the moist aroma and sinus-soothing vapors from a pot of boiling water. But it is often difficult to get a roiling boil just the way you remember it as a child. In my quest to perfect boiled water I began by collecting a dozen different recipes ranging from family hand-me-downs to restaurant standbys. But none of these recipes produced a water boil precisely as I remember it. Some were too slow and too dilute while others were dense and tough. All of the recipes shared a few typical ingredients, such as water. But otherwise they had little in common.
In my first effort to produce a reliable boiled water, I began with a cylindrical steel container, or “pot” as often called for in traditional recipes. Placing the pot four inches away from the flame, the water did eventually come to a boil, but it took six hours. This might have been acceptable in our grandparents’ day, but many of us no longer have so much time to spare. I then moved the pot closer, a mere two inches from the flame. Indeed, the water boiled in just three hours – a big improvement.
Still, tasters said that the boiled water exhibited a “metallic” tang. I suspected this off-note might have been imparted by the steel container or “pot” itself. Next, I removed the pot from the equation, pouring the water directly into the flame. As I’d hoped, the water boiled almost instantly, exhibiting just the warm vapor I was looking for.
Although direct contact with the burner did boil the water quickly, testers found it difficult to get close to the liquid without having their faces burned off by the gas flame. Clearly I needed to find another way.
I then remembered a vessel I’d received as a gift from an ex-mother-in-law that has been kept in a remote storage locker for many years. I drove there in my car at a speed of 30MPH. After observing that it was taking a long time to get there, I increased my speed to 60MPH. This worked well and I arrived at my destination in half the time.
The vessel is constructed with a layer of ceramic enamel enrobed over an iron core. It can hold about 8 quarts of liquid and weighs 400 pounds. I strapped the container to a trailer hitch and returned to the test kitchen.
Because of the vessel’s weight, I used a winch to lift it onto the burner. Once in place, I filled it with water and lit the stove. Voila! In just about ten minutes, there was a perfectly boiled pot of water. The steaming vapor had just the level of moisture I’d remembered, and because of the enamel coating, the boiled water did not take on any unwanted flavors.

My Year of Cannibalism
It seems like eating ethically is getting harder every day. You can give up meat because animals are treated badly, but then you have to eat more vegetables, which are picked by migrant workers who are treated badly. You can limit yourself to foods produced locally, but then your neighbor’s boy will probably have his legs chopped off in a combine accident, resulting in very awkward conversations at the farmer’s market. “Thanks for the carrots, sorry about your kid. Any plans for more?”
Clearly, people are the cause of all these problems. Without their meddling in the food chain, I could eat my three squares with a clear conscience. So I tried something new. For twelve months, I resolved to eat only my fellow human beings. No farm animals would die because of me. No fruits or vegetables would be harvested by underpaid and undocumented workers on my behalf. You can read all about it in my groundbreaking new memoir, My Year of Cannibalism.
I know what you’re thinking. How did I get enough fiber? My cholesterol must have gone through the roof! But I developed a system.
First, it is important to eat at least five servings of vegetarian per day. If you can eat vegans, so much the better, but they can be a little bland so you need to alternate them with someone tastier, like pastry chefs. When I need a buzz I choose men with large beer guts. On special occasions I like small children. They don’t offer a lot in the way of nutritional value, but their young and tender muscles are like butter. I do not eat actual butter because it comes from cows, and that’s just wrong.
Throughout my year of cannibalism, I learned several tips and tricks that make a manivorous diet more manageable:
- Eat people earlier in the day rather than later. Killing someone just for a midnight snack takes a lot of energy and will keep you up all night.
- Rather than eat a whole person in one sitting, enjoy several smaller meals throughout the day. A few fingers in the morning will get your metabolism started and an eyeball or two in the afternoon will keep you from crashing.
- Many people do not like to be eaten and will become frightened if you come right at them with a knife and fork. Scared humans make for a tough meal because the adrenaline tenses their muscles. Get to know them first and make them feel comfortable. Give them a drink or two first, preferably something mixed generously with gamma hydroxybutyrate.
- Try to eat people who live within 50 miles of your home. They will not have to travel as far, which will reduce your carbon footprint while eliminating theirs.
Now that my twelve months of cannibalism are through, I am often asked if I plan to continue? To tell you the truth, I thought it would be a difficult adjustment. But once you get used to eating people and everything that goes with it — finding them, trapping them, and so on — it really just becomes a part of your lifestyle. I can hardly imagine going back to food produced by farmers.

Forget about web 2.0 or even web 3.0!
Only Web 4.0 evites an “explosive mindshare shift in crowdsourcing,” blogs futuru Nicholas Carr or people like him.
Ubiquitous ultraportable eportals will become the connective tissue of our social neuralnets, driving adoption of optimally monetized platforms. With IP6 on Internet2 absorbed into gigawidth pipes, the edges of userspace and meatspace will melt into a boingboing of meeboplex. Also there will be a lot of porn.
Carr goes on to predict that Internet natives will obsolete new media mashups in favor of personalized pay-per-click vodcasts, that next week’s Pick 6 numbers are 5 21 17 8 11 4, and that filly “Honey I’m Home” will place to show in the Belmont Stakes on June 4, 2011.

Funny is a very subjective thing. If I say, "Does this milk smell funny to you?" you might say no, proceed to drink it, and die of poisoning by botulism. For example.
