http://5by5.tv/bw2/42 was a great episode of Back To Work that touched on a lot of things I’ve been thinking about for awhile.
I wrote up the first of my responses over at my “Big Boy Blog” at http://luo.ma aka RhymesWithDiploma.com.

So if you like that kind of thing, take a look.

I just finished listening to that episode on the way to work today, and, no joke, when I heard that part I thought to myself “I wonder what TJ will have to say about this.” Moral of the story: get out of my head, TJ, there isn’t room for all 3 of us.
