The Man & Big Brother, Inc. strives to maintain a safe workplace…objectives: eliminate injury; reduce pollutants; conserve natural resources; yadda yadda.
Every year in order to get a new sticker on my badge for access to the plant, I have to take a refresher EHS class. What’s EHS you might ask? Environmental Health & Safety. Now, [...]

I’ve been really sick this week, and so have been working from home. Bronchitis, sinusitis, and conjunctivitis; no, I’m not joking.

Catherine, my platonic wife and super-girlie friend, managed to get 57% man, beating even me out for manliness. AV Flox, one of the sexiest female bloggers on [...]
A little while ago, the very talented and cool Steph Auteri interviewed me for a regular Nerve advice column called “Dating Advice From…” and mine was, you guessed it, “Dating Advice From…Engineers.” I’m on the second page, and there is even a horribly unflattering head shot of me included in the article! They only [...]
