The Cubicle
I heard on NPR yesterday that it was supposedly the 40th anniversary of the "Action Office", or what eventually evolved into the modern day cubicle. The Action Office was invented by Robert Propst, who worked for Herman Miller, a manufacturer of office and home furniture based in Zeeland, MI. (See map.) The first prototype was made in 1965, and three years later in 1968 they began production.
Ironically, Robert Propst's intention for the Action Office was to make a more user-friendly and inviting office atmosphere, and was actually not very efficient at using space. However, changes over time led to smaller cubicles that utilized space in a better fashion, eventually leading to what we now have today.
So next time you find yourself admiring the blue/grey tones of your cube, remember to send your thanks to good ol' Michigan for another great invention. :)

Hiccups
I've had them literally almost all day today. It's to the point where they almost hurt. How annoying.

iPhone
I got the new iPhone on Saturday. It's pretty dope. They come in black or white. I got the white one. I'm not racist though. The black looks pretty slick too, but something was calling my name about the white one. I wish everyone I know had one.
The bottom image is an actual screen-capture of my home screen.

Million Dollar Baby
If you've never seen this movie (like me, until today) I don't care, because I'm spoiling it right now. And trust me...you'll thank me!
THIS IS THE WORST MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!! Unless, of course, you like the build me up, tear me down, tear me down some more, then blow my brains out depressing type of movies, then go for it. Buy it on DVD or Blu-ray. This should be right up your alley. Nothing like watching a two and a half hour movie about a nobody making it to the top, getting cheap shotted, which eventually leads to your assisted suicide death. Whew! Talk about a great movie!
I have no idea how this movie won four Oscars, one of which was best picture of the year. More like #1, best, most depressing movie of all time! Unbelievable.
WORST...MOVIE...EVER.
