She's your Queen*

So one of the perks of being a Google employee, in addition to the free food, is getting some pretty cool opportunities such as being part of a Guinness Book of World Records record (you loyal reader have no idea what I'm talking about as it will be revealed in a much delayed-post).

Anyway, yesterday saw the one and only Queen of England grace our glorious hallways to celebrate the partnership YouTube has with the royals as well as some of the various charitable things we apparently collaborate on, never forget, it's all about the kids.

Anyway, she was escorted around the offices in a nice little green get-up while Prince Phillip trailed behind her making beelines down rows of desks to ask (interrogate?) random people what they were doing.  All in all a very amusing and interesting day in the life of this Googler.  Check it our here: http://www.youtube.com/user/TheRoyalChannel

What else can I add to make you forgive me for being so crap at posting?  Hmmm, how about the Sox staving off elimination in an unbelievable comeback last night?  Let's hope they can do it 2 more times.  And my favourite quote is from Bill Simmons about the Jason Bay/Manny Ramirez trade "I can't look at Bay and not think of Manny. At least not yet. Bay is like the dutiful, pretty second wife who does everything right … and yet, I can't stop thinking about the soul-wrenching tramp who married me first and broke my heart. "

And that as Publius would say is all I have to say about that.

Sleep well mes amis.
