  • ROBERT MAXWELL, VIA

Over at GQ, occasional Mercury contributor Lindy West has a solid interview with Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage, and it's well worth a read, HOWEVER: It pales in comparison to the above image, which is one of two amazing photographs by Robert Maxwell that accompany said interview, and which is now my desktop wallpaper.

I DISAGREE. THE VIDEO ACCOMPANYING THE INTERVIEW (WHICH IS TOO SHORT BY ABOUT 1000 WORDS) IS FAR SUPERIOR TO THAT INDIVIDUAL PHOTO.

Thanks Steve! I'll take it this is a job offer if I get summarily fired? I'm good with spreadsheets and coffee consumption.

@FC: QUIT USING THE INTERNET FOR PERSONAL REASONS WHILE AT WORK.

I recommend being the person in charge of appropriate internet use at work -- this works well for me. Unless you plan on actually spying on what your employees/co-workers are viewing. I assume I would learn some things I would rather not.

@Graham, indulging in a bit of light-hearted Mercury frivolity between tasks increases my performance. You have to feed a Fruit Cup with local politics. memes and bicycle stories every now and again or they wilt.

@catbot, I don't want to be the net nanny!

@Fruit Cup -- ah ha, but I'm not the net nanny! I'm just the one in charge of the net! I don't actually look at any logs or anything, but I know that no one else is either. Of course, we can see each other's computer screens, so there is an embarrassment factor.

However, I'm really back on this thread to register my sadness that the interview wasn't longer. I had been saving it for a treat!
