Ambushed by some rouges. Killed them all. Took their stuff. Had tons of daggers. Dagger started insulting him. Because it was a crude dagger. Jokeserver is spying on his DnD game.

aaaah! Had a weekend. Did all the homework is due tomorrow and the day after. Dreamed she grew a beard. It was troubling. Then she woke up. Bad dream. Submit to Pravda? Is tired, so isn't loud. Was walking around, in Squirrel Hill. Saw this guy spouting nonsense, waving glow-sticks. He was a raving lunatic.

Committees

Pop Occultism

A great man never ignores the simplicity of a child.

Knows a guy called Ray, who has a daughter. Who is adorable. Shawn was married, then wasn't. Was over at Ray's house. Daughter was three. Ray was the only one who told Shawn he was stupid. Daughter went "Shawn is stupid". Rule got established that only Shawn could call things stupid.

Groan at Ben Wolf's Jokes

7 accounts of success. Lots of groans.

Committee that Won't Exist

Pick Goob

Story Telling Committee

Marketing meant no more and no less than that -- bringing your food to the market.

Could grow into the grocery store and buy mustard. That was all you could get. Got white mustard seed. And white wine. Made mustard. "Pardon Me -- do you have any Grey Poupon". Made Dijon Two kinds of Mustard. People bought new kinds of mustard. Market segmentation worked. Pasta Sauce worked the same way. There was "Spaghetti Sauce" and "Spaghetti Sauce with meat". Chunky or smooth? No one was making chunky spaghetti Sauce. So they could double the market. Tried it with Ketchup. And they failed. Heinz Ketchup *is* Ketchup. Change the balance, and you get tomato sauce with something else in it. It doesn't work. Noticed people like putting salt on their food. But didn't put as much ketchup -- because parents were like "be careful with that glass thing". Switched to plastic, 19% more ketchup sold.
