A New Chapter
Hello. How ’bout that last post? You guys might not know this, but I consider myself a bit of a loner. I tend to think of myself as a one man wolf pack. But when I met Seamus in the lab and heard his Metal Gear Solid exclamation message tone, I knew he was one…

Red Bull and Ramen
If Red Bull was a person… How would you describe their personality? This was just one of the interesting questions I was asked as part of a market research survey around soft drinks.
