    First, abandon your spoon. You only need a fork and a tac-knife.

    Second, kill and eat at least one of every species you come across, and rank how delicious it is.

    Third, get in the box. You can think. In the box. You’ll feel free. In the box. Everything is better… In the box.

    Fourth, stock up on glowing mushrooms. They’ll recharge your batteries.

      Hold on now, there’s different levels of success and many strategies to get there. Being a skilled people person who can start at the bottom and navigate through the ranks is a skill all on its own. Being able to take something that you didn’t make and navigate it through hard times and into success is an indicator of ability just as much as building a business from nothing but an idea. Steve Jobs built Apple into the lifestyle brand it is today from a garage workshop selling mail order kits. He is a success.

      Lisa Su is a electrical engineer who started out working on making IBM Power PC chips and eventually helped create the Cell chip used in the PS3 before she joined AMD. She brought her talents to the Zen CPU architecture before becoming CEO of the company. Under her tenure AMD has changed into a powerhouse of performance at prices Intel can’t compete against, turning game consoles and servers into AMD machines.

      Success has many forms and snubbing one person’s achievements because they didn’t get in on the ground floor is unfair. Success is based entirely on luck. Hopefully the right person was in the right place at the right time.

    As a former newspaper graphics person, the days shit like that came along were great. “You want me to what? OK.”

    I can’t see the date so I choose to believe this was all camera and felt pen.
