Words of wisdom from a combustable amphibian.

Those Who Don’t

Posted Thursday, June 12th, 2008 at 5:14 am

There’s a saying that goes “Those who beat their swords into plowshares will be ruled by those who don’t.”

I was recently reminded of this when reading Monday’s Penny Arcade post, which in part relates a friend’s experience in a business school course on negotiation. The story is a short five paragraphs, but it’s one that manages to be both amusing and thought provoking at the same time.

About Flametoad

Flametoad is the personal website for Preston DuBose, a full-time e-commerce and credit card security professional for the higher-education market, a part-time RPG publisher, and a full-time husband and father.

I ignore conventional blogging wisdom and refuse to focus on a single topic. This website covers gaming, family life, marketing, security, literature, music, and just about anything else shiny that catches my eye.

Do you think I might be your long lost nephew, to whom you'd like to bequeath your vast financial empire? Find my e-mail address and read more of my bio on the About Flametoad page.

I get a small thrill every time someone bothers to respond to one of my posts. I get a big thrill when you post naked pictures of yourself. Well, not YOU.
