Peter Windsor said that his USF1 group needs to remind themselves that they’re in the ‘entertainment’ business.
*cough*
I beg to differ. Formula 1 is not in the entertainment business. It’s a competition business, pure and simple.

Somewhere in the blogosphere, in a galaxy far, far away, lunatic bloggers are huddled together in meager numbers, submissively pounding away at their computers. Their frustration over a blogger-comrade’s treatment by Ryanair staff has lit a fire. A small fire. Nothing that would ever fuel that fire, so long as their bullying Ryanair staff can [...]
It’s gotta be tough to be at Arnell this year. First, their work for Pepsi-Cola was much maligned by ad bloggers. Now, their work gets rejected by the shopper.

Kidrobot’s Munny is the world’s greatest* DIY toy. I have several, including the infamous ’suit munny’, shown here in prototype stage:

Inside your computer, it’s running a series of programmed commands where “if” a certain condition happens, “then” a statement is executed. The same situations go on inside every business every day when people make big decisions that ultimately affect how the business runs.
