Iron Man 2: Do things blow up? Does RDJ smirk? Yes and yes.

Saw Iron Man 2 on opening night and hard to complain about a flick that delivers exactly what you expected. No Spiderman-osis here but ultimately just another summer action movie.

We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint

Powerpoint makes my day to day job pretty miserable but to think that the U.S. military uses the same dumb slides and bullet points to make major decisions is unsettling.

I hope they don’t get all geeked up and use stupid custom animations.

“PowerPoint makes us stupid,” Gen. James N. Mattis of the Marine Corps, the Joint Forces commander, said this month at a military conference in North Carolina. (He spoke without PowerPoint.)

…Commanders say that behind all the PowerPoint jokes are serious concerns that the program stifles discussion, critical thinking and thoughtful decision-making.

Brig. Gen. H. R. McMaster, who banned PowerPoint presentations when he led the successful effort to secure the northern Iraqi city of Tal Afar in 2005, followed up at the same conference by likening PowerPoint to an internal threat.”

Fun fact: I use advice from the Muppets for all my relationship problems.

You can’t live with ‘em, you can’t live without ‘em.
There’s somethin’ irresistabullish about ‘em.
We grin and bear it ‘cause the nights are long.
I hope that somethin’ better comes along.
