A couple of HEHs June 11, 2007 8:33 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Cool Sites, Humor, Of Interest, PhilosophyWell, this about describes me (via Jon). And Les just nailed it! (a must read!)
Btw, with apologies to The Blogfather, I despise HEH. It has bothered me since the first time I ever saw it used in a chatroom (which was probably IRC circa 1988). Dictionary.com gives it a definition of "a half laugh" but I have always read HEH as bemusement but almost a disrespectful, laugh of obligation like "ok, you made the effort to say it so I’ll make an effort to acknowledge you." The two links above deserve much more than a HEH!

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Cool Sites, Health, Mental, Of Interest, PhilosophyLifehack.org nailed it today!
- Stop taking so much notice of how you feel.

- Ease up on the internal life commentary.
- Take no notice of your inner critic.
- Give up on feeling guilty.
- Stop being concerned what the rest of the world says about you.
- Stop keeping score.
- Don’t be concerned that your life and career aren’t working out the way you planned.
- Don’t let others use you to avoid being responsible for their own decisions.
- Don’t worry about about your personality. You don’t really have one.

Read the details to really appreciate each one. I know I am person guilty of 8 or 9 of them and just reading the article lifted some weight off my shoulders.

1 comment so farHas anyone won anything on Blingo lately? April 13, 2007 1:54 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Contest, Cool Sites, Daily Life, Games/Puzzles, Of InterestOur household use to average a Blingo movie ticket or iTunes gift card at least once a month. We haven’t won anything for about 3 or 4 months now. Did PCH destroy Blingo (which now claims to have $1000 Thursdays) or has it just become that popular that the odds of winning dramatically reduced?
On a side note, you can sure tell it is a Friday afternoon in the blogosphere. Comments on No Silence are dwindling down. Of course, it looks like Michael might have two simultaneous threads running. I suppose all that needs to be said has been said but I don’t believe that.
