I’ve been falling asleep to MST3K for the past six months now and have never slept better.
I’ve been sleeping to MST3k in the background for.. over a year. It’s fantastic. -Alacar
Anyone else do this?
It used to be the only way I could get to sleep. MST3K or commentaries on the Simpsons or Futurama DVDs. Then I discovered the NPR podcast. Excellence.

Included in this display were audio animatronics, a large model of the Magic Kingdom and Seven Seas Lagoon, along with several supplemental exhibits detailing the resorts and coming attractions.

Twist It
In Milan, a rakish gent will twist the skinny length of his tie at the knot so that it runs alongside (instead of behind) the wider length.Reverse It
You can also try tying the skinny length longer than the wider length. Yes, it’s affected. That’s the whole point.Tuck It
If you’re feeling more military than Milan, tuck your tie between your third and fourth buttons. Think Sinatra and Clift in From Here to Eternity.
I am okay with all of these.

This is the beginning of a new chapter in my book, “MBAs Ruin Everything.”
“The average American will never work for Google or Apple. But the rise of the high tech sector matters to all of us, including those who work outside high tech. One important reason is that attracting an Internet company or a biotech company to a city results in significant job gains for workers in the local service sector – occupations like waiters, carpenters, doctors and teachers. I call this the multiplier effect. This multiplier effect is surprisingly large. My research shows that for each new high tech job in a city, five additional jobs are created outside high tech in that city. In essence, from the point of view of a city, a high-tech job is much more than a job.”
