Hello, Bluetooth
Today marks the date of my official transition from the testing team to the Bluetooth development team. I've only starting on small projects, but I can already sense the difference of what it will be like to be working in an area that better fits my personality. I'm thankful that God opened this door for me and led me through it. I will have to continue to depend on Him for wisdom and guidance with my new challenges.
For those of you curious on what the heck Bluetooth is -- and for the record, it is definitely nerdy -- check out a good article here .

Is your new boss David Brent?
"If a good man, such as yourself comes to me and says, 'david, thank you for the opportunity to serve in the work related arena, but I've been there, done that, want to move on', I can make that happen for, AKA for you."
I hope this doesn't mean you won't have time for further installments of "Office Bathroom Ethics," as I would be very sad and would be forced to rue the day Bluetooth was created.

so does this article tell me why they call it "Bluetooth"?
I'll field this question. I used to work for a technology company, so I know the reason it's called "bluetooth"
You see, with prolonged use of this wireless product, the radiation that is generated causes your teeth to turn blue. It's real subtle at first, it even makes your teeth appear whiter the first 6-8 months, but after a couple years, you look like you just ate Papa Smurf for Thanksgiving dinner.
I'm just taking a guess here, but I think Bluetooth was named after Harald Blatand (or Bluetooth), a tenth century Danish Viking king who had united and controlled large parts of Scandinavia which are today Denmark and Norway. The name was chosen to highlight the potential of the technology to unify the telecommunications and computing industries - although it was chosen as an internal codename, and it was never at the time expected to survive as the name used in the commercial arena - but that is another story.
I think the one thing that really gets me stalked (not to be confused with 'stoked') is that Bluetooth operates in the 2.4GHz frequency band without a license for wireless communication. Matt, please, please make this happen!
teeftastic is a genius. i'm surprised Bluetooth has come up in your law school classes. well done.
Bensheets has a crush on teeftastic.
Teeftastic, do you have a newsletter that I can subscribe to?
By the way, malysizzle told me randy found the videotape that contains the invention of quad sliding (featuring the Flounder), as well as Phil's soc project during which Teef spotted John Madden on on Daniels. I'm gonna peep it next weekend, let's make it a party.
Wow, this sure is an insider comment.
