		<description>My company uses Office Space Feng Shui.  Plenty of fabric wall cubicles in nice neat rows where you can hear the conversations of everyone.  Great for voyeurs.

What I am struck by is the file photo used in the Irritable Desk Syndrome link.  The article was written in 2004 and if that photo was current then, it is amazing how far monitor technology has come in 3 years.

I was watching Ferris Bueller&#039;s Day Off yesterday and in the scene where his dad gets up to dance during &quot;Twist and Shout&quot;, I remembered what desks used to look like without computers.</description>

		<description>You have to see Penn &amp; Tellers B.S. Episode on This and bottled Water(2 in 1). Its one of my favorites.
Also next year will be really big for china, as in it will have the date 8/8/8 and advertisers there already have stuff planed for every month but 1, (since they almost all will have 1 lucky date number except the 4th)</description>

		<description>I&#039;m thinking that maybe the truth behind Feng Shui is that a good Feng Shui consultant is someone with a natural talent for organizing, decorating, and furniture arranging and they use the Chinese spiritual stuff as a gimmick.</description>

		<description>You have got to be kidding me.  If feng shui is anything more than an ancient superstition, I&#039;ve never seen the evidence for it.</description>

		<description>I do temp work and one of my repeat clients is an international architectural firm that specialises in buildings for education and health care. From some of the things I notice laying around the office they use an Indian version of Feng Shui- Vaastu-Shasta I think. Now, I don&#039;t know if they used it in their office, but I love working there because I feel instant calm. The light is perfect, the temperature is exactly right.  I find things easily and NEVER feel stressed. Now, I have a tendency toward heart racing anxiety, and I never feel it there. Some days I don&#039;t want to leave.</description>

		<description>If a Feng Shui consultant came to my house they would probably get dizzy, turn and run out of the house, and throw-up in the yard.</description>
