These are the things that came up in conversation during employee reviews this week.

As a newly-appointed owner of my firm, this was the first year I got to review other employees instead of being reviewed.  So this was the first time I've sat through other people's reviews, and the experience was enlightening, by which I mean it was anything but, at times.

There was, for example, much more cursing than I had anticipated.  We run a pretty loose shop, apparently.  Also, we discussed, at times:

Kant's categorical imperative.

Bourbon.

Whether I am a young guy or old guy

About which, on that last one, the two oldest people in our firm were talking and agreeing that they were the oldest people in our firm, and then the second-oldest person in our firm said to me: "Well, you type all your stuff and you type it fast, but these younger people, they don't know how to do that."

To which I responded that up until that very moment I'd considered myself one of the younger people.

(She still got a raise.)

Also, I drew a pirate ship:

It's sort of a space-ghost-futuristic-pirate ship, which really I think highlights the kind of boss I am.

Why 3D? (Middle)

There are some movies that would be great in 3D.  Titanic is not one of them.  Why?  Here are a few reasons why I don’t think that Titanic should be made 3D;

First off, I would like to say that Titanic is a classic love story (sort of like Gone With the Wind) and if I were to be made into a 3D movie than the story line would be forgotten about and the movie would have a different meaning. 

Second, I re-watched Titanic last evening (it is one of, if not my favorite movie) and there was not one part that I believe would be good in 3D. 

Third, wouldn’t one get a headache from watching that long of a movie in 3D?

I understand that 3D can be cool and awesome and all of that but I for one am not a person that can see a movie in 3D.  I am not able to see 3D.  And I am more than okay with that because I don’t think that 3D is all that wonderful.  Plus just wearing those sill glasses gives me a headache.

Yes, I will agree, and say that there are some movies that would be awesome in 3D.  If I had to choose a movie to see in 3D (that is if I could see 3D) I would chose the movie Up.  I think that would be a great movie because the colors and the balloons and the house and almost the entire movie would be really cool to see protruding from the movie screen.  But like I said I don’t think that everything needs to be put into 3D. 

I like the fact they are releasing the Titanic in the big screen because then it gives the people who were too young or unable to see the movie in theatre a chance to go and see the movie on the big screen, but putting the movie in 3D is going a little too far…
