NPR: Post It War

Wed, 07 Sep 2011 14:22:00 -0500

There’s a war raging in the offices of Paris.

The Guardian reports:

…across the French capital, the summer has been enlivened by a corporate collage contest known as La guerre des Post-it (the Post-it wars). The battle is between presumably underemployed office workers who are devoting large chunks of their days to sticking thousands of pink, yellow, orange and green notes on their windows to recreate pixelated images.

The war draws heavily on the nerd canon — lots of video games, with a little Star Wars thrown in. But there are a few surprises in the mix.

The Post-it revolution is being obsessively documented at postitwar.com (of course), which gave us permission to post some of the pictures here.

Perry for President FML:

Now that conservative TX Gov Rick Perry has officially announced to Presidential bid, it is important to remember the lasting legacy he will leave for Texas. After 25 years in public office and 10 years as the Governor, Perry has dramatically changed what Texas looks like for future generations. Below are just a few of his accomplishments.

Thank you John Boehner and Eric Cantor. Because y’all want to play chicken with the economy, the DOW has lost 595 pts (4.68%) in 1 week.

“The liberal ideal is that everyone should have fair access and fair opportunity. This is not equality of result. It’s equality of opportunity. There’s a fundamental difference.”

“The biases the media has are much bigger than conservative or liberal. They’re about getting ratings, about making money, about doing stories that are easy to cover.”

Part of my morning routine is to sit down and watch the previous evenings Colbert Report and Daily Show. It’s important to know what people will be talking about and these two comedy shows are at the top of the mountain on framing a mass consumption political show.

Short story… Texas was a fixture of Colbert Report. Anchoring the Texas ridicule? Rick Perry of course.
