What a whopper!
There are advantages to being self-employed. I as the employee (me) never have to waste time coming up with reasons (excuses, lies, whoppers) to tell my boss (also me) why I can't make it in to work.

You say Babel, I say Babble
There is a lot of babbling going on nowadays. Sometimes it is just overwhelming. It got its start a long time ago, in a land far, far away.
