browngirl sent me a wonderful, funny, twisted holiday card. "Tentacles", indeed. You realize that I can't put this one on the mantle in the living room, right? :-)

I like some of the twists I've seen that "tell me something about yourself" meme take. The winner so far, in my opinion, is "Ah, there's so and so... she was active in the movement to ban canned spinach back in the 70s" (in a protected entry).

I've been interviewing a lot of job candidates lately (programmers). We do group interviews, and I'm finding that I'm much more comfortable being an interviewer in that kind of setting than I am in a one-on-one session. I would enjoy doing more of this, and I think I've been providing useful feedback. (I wonder how the candidates would feel to find out that they're being screened by the tech writer. I think it's perfectly reasonable... in fact, I've considered volunteering to take some of our phone-screen load.)

And now, time for Shabbat (and Chanukah).

NP. Bucking what seems to be the trend, I've actually gotten more liberal about what I make public in the last few months.
