A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day. - Calvin (as in, Calvin and Hobbes)

We Be Blowin' Up This Blog
On Friday morning, a slightly older JustChildren intern did an in-home interview with a 16-year-old boy for whom Andy Block is serving as guardian ad litem, accompanied by one of the other Boiler Room lackeys. At one point, we were discussing the kid's efforts at following up on job applications he had dropped off with with potential employers.
He said, "Man, we be blowin' up their phone!"
JustChildren intern, puzzled: "Huh?"
Luckily the younger, hip lackey was able to translate. "You tried calling them a lot?"
"Yeah."
Maybe the JustChildren intern is getting too old for this already...before even getting started.
