Time to end this column after 11 yearsI should have quit on high note, like "Seinfeld." Too late for that. So now I'm writing my final column after nearly 11 years, wishing it had stayed more relevant right up to the end, wishing I'd been more entertaining for the readers who stuck with me all this tim...FeaturesAugust 17, 2005
A flight of crisis takes offEditor's note: This column originally ran Wednesday, July 28, 2004. A new column will appear next week. Have you ever had a crisis by which you judge all others?

Rappers' audience mostly whiteTipper Gore doesn't want to hear this, but I like rap music. After a long day using my brain at the office, I can't handle any subject matter deeper than making money, evading police and dancing with round-butted women. Joss Stone? Foo Fighters? Nah.

Conspiracy theoriesThere's a conspiracy going on, and I'm going to expose it if I have to befriend and betray every hairstylist in the area. Here's how it works: You go to the salon and get a new hairstyle. Maybe you get just a trim. Either way, when it is finished, you look beautifu...FeaturesJune 29, 2005
Quiet workers uniteDon't you hate those overly eager beavers at work? You invite them to lunch and they say, "Oh, no! I'm too busy for lunch! I don't know how YOU find the time." Or you're packing up at quitting time, and they're monitoring your departure. "Leaving already?" they say...FeaturesJune 22, 2005
For $100 an hour, trainer needs sense of humorGood health is getting more expensive, at least for me. My personal trainer, Neil, just informed me he took a few more certification courses and now charges $100 an hour. I've got a couple problems with that. First of all, anyone who makes that much money should be...Advertisement
