Showdown at the OK Corral: JJ's right boob vs. 542.000 American idiots

542.000. I didn't know that number until today.

That's the number of Americans who complained after Janet Jackson exposed her right breast for less than a second during the Super Bowl. 542.000 people sufficiently outraged by the sight of a female boob to officially complain about it.

What the hell is wrong with those people? What harm do they see in that? Are boobs immoral? Damaging in any way? It's so beyond me that anyone can be offended enough to actually complain ... but ... 542.000 people???

Obama, you got some serious changing to do.

Oh, and just to avoid being tracked down and sued for tearing the very fabric of life of innocent children and sensitive readers into shreds, here's a low nausea version of the disgusting incident!

A single picture that says it all?

Mind mapping

I like mind maps. I like making them, and I also like looking at mind maps created by other people. They inspire me, make my mind jump around, associate and create new meanings. Here's one I've snatched from Dina's place.

The entry in the middle is very intriguing - "Get Deeply Geeky", and so is the brainstorm around it. How to be a woman and still survive in tech ... well, sometimes difficult, but definitely possible!

I sometimes use this technique in my work. Sometimes with clients, sometimes as a tool for charting ideas or affiliations between concepts.

Highly recommended for both work and for any situation, where you need to map your thoughts in a structured - yet free - manner! Try making one yourself. You start with the center thought, the subject that you want to explore. Then move out from there, mapping related thoughts or ideas, then associating further from those, etc.

The center thought can be anything. Youself, in your present life, your marriage, your job, a problem that needs to be solved ... there's no limit but your imagination.

Which, of course, is limitless ...
