I need a no brainer today. We're starting to see influenza in the office and that means we're about to get really, really busy. Granted after last year's sucky income thanks to Katrina, it will be good to be busy. But, when influenza hits this office turns into "put on your rollerskates and order out for lunch" busy.

So, here is a no brainer post other wise known as a "meme":

1. List two things that are true of you that are not stereotypically true of members of some group that you belong to.

a. I have a bi-racial child
b. I work only three days a week in the office


2. List two unusual talents that you have.

a. I have prehensile toes
b. I can make almost any baby stop crying


3. List two unusual weaknesses that you have.

a. I collect travel guides
b. When stressed to the breaking point, I like to eat real bacon and eggs fried in the bacon fat.


4. List two unusual things that you aspire to.

a. I want to be an art historian
b. I want to live somewhere that I won't ever, ever have to drive again


5. List two words that you use more than most people do.

a. otitis
b. media


6. List two foods that you dislike and most other people like.

a. hot chocolate
b. oatmeal


7. List two strange habits that you have.

a. I sleep with an electric blanket, even in the summer
b. I avoid parties
