Stealth mode

Been working in a editorial coal mine lately, long hours and not much daylight to show for it. It looks like we'll need to put in time this weekend also—big project due first thing Monday, and the usual backup from the people who write the stuff and review the stuff means we don't get to edit the stuff or make it look pretty until the witching hour.

But it'll come out right in the end, because my boss told me that when the madness is over, I get to change my title to...ready for this?

Right-Hand Editorial Assassin. Why, yes, that does kick ass.

He also said he's getting us pirate eye patches and skull caps for Christmas, so maybe he's just kidding, but I don't care. I'm hanging onto it.

Editorial Assassin. It needs the coolest business card ever—and you can imagine the outfits. The movie deals!

You could design an entire lifestyle around a title like that. And I just might.

that flash movie is a little apoplectic, no?

Maybe a tad. But it certainly doesn't leave any question about whether or not the company does Linux. Thus were we instructed.
