Heh.

No wonder Jon never posts.. He finally makes his post and all the claws come out.

Oh and Jon... get with the times :P

Cookies are now a sometimes food. They would probably be accompanied with some carrots, bread and milk and probably with a healthy dose of excercise.

(I felt I needed to join in the Jon bashing session somehow)

Ahem, you can't stop posting, I enjoy the witty commentary. Carry-on you two.

Hah! I didn't even realize that I hadn't left my name...and hey, I'm calling myself a fourth year now. Your job sounds interesting, and I hope the two of you are having a good summer. I hear it rains out there. A lot.

Emma...Emma...Emma...don't even try to hide behind the "anonymous" sign in. I can spot a third year bpamer as easily as cookie monster can eat a package of mint oreos in under 30 seconds. Les Pal may not have taught me to write at the same level as CIDA officials, but at least I know a bpamer when I read one.
Finally in the spirit of summer slackness, government officials usually cannot write to save their lives, and as such do not expect much in that area. So don't work too hard on those submission documents.

Honestly, Jon - try editing your posts. My job for the summer has, thus far, consisted of editing a number of documents for submission to CIDA, and I am quickly growing tired (and quite intolerant) of poor grammar and sentence structure. You have a fucking degree for heaven's sake. It wasn't too bad, but that degree says it should have been better. That is all.

You guys know it's only a matter of time before the engineering-political science feud starts in earnest. The big words versus the big equations.

And I was only kidding. I enjoy big words. I don't dumb myself down for anyone. I'm guessing the previous post was spurred by a rabid bout of jealousy because my brother is just that much cooler than me. I mean, I work at freakin' Canadian TIRE, right?

I would never dream of doing anything that would jeopardize the prestige, standing, stature, reputation, repute, regard, fame, note, reknown, honour, esteem, prominence or eminence of your blog.

My sincerest apologies.

While I'm usually not one to cut in between what could otherwise become an entertaining sibling rivalry, the prestige of my blog is at stake. I must say Julien, the difference between your "masses" and our "masses", are... well ... the difference between Dose (or the Metro, your pick) and the New York Times (or Globe and Mail, again your pick). You see, in the world of business elite and public policy gurus (to which we both enjoy inner-circle membership) we ARE dumbing it down.

Time to go take my chihuahua to the pet spa...

You know, I could make my job sound all smart and interesting if I used big words like "documentation" and "referencing" and "organizational referencing itemization". But for the pleasure of the masses, I dumb it down. You should try it sometime.
