Frankly... I would find it pretty weird if people were going around saying "we're looking for people of [any specific characteristic]", with no additional explanation as to why.

Twelve days to go. Time to repost stuff you've already read—er, I mean, cleverly repurpose existing content resources for impactful brand synergy.

Jokes aside: as we whip through pull quotes of the great reviews thus far, there was never a chance I wouldn't start with this one.

And the craziest part is, I didn't totally hate it. Any movie that has Tina Fey and Halloween can't be all bad, IMO.😄

I haven't read the article, but I'm guessing it was something like, "you better win this, or I'll trade you to the Bengals."
