Very entertaining article by Joel Spolsky about not forgetting where you came from and acknowledging that its your own fault if you chose not to take a compass or if they weren’t invented yet, either way the new recruits won’t leave without a TomTom.

For quite some years I have bugged a good friend of mine, Mike White, about his “shortlist”. Only jesting of course, but the simple question “how’s your shortlist?” has usually been answered honestly and to the point.
At some stage the question got abbreviated even further to “how’s boys?” for Alyssa, who now seems to have a consistent answer to my question.
d3vo has taken to publishing his personal shortlist online which I find highly entertaining- well actually I find my imaginings of the reactions of the real people on the shortlist to be entertaining, not the list itself. See where not to meet single women, date planning, bed trays and date planning updated.
I guess you (who are about to apply for inclusion onto the shortlist) would take great solace in knowing that a full documented history is available and if you’re in trouble at all you can jump online to possibly find out why and maybe get some hints on what to do about it.
