I've read this about 4 times today, and am not ashamed to say it brought a tear to my eye:

http://dilbertblog.typepad.com/the_dilbert_blog/2006/03/winning.html

This is the best piece of writing I have read in 5 years, perhaps longer. His blog is now part of my daily reading routine. Not to mention some of his other writing:

http://www.dilbert.com/

And the next time I ever hear of an athlete complaining about not enough money, respect, or trash-talking someone else, I'm MAILING that article to them and their agents, maybe even their fans, with "STFU" in big red letters on the envelope.

The problem with the dilbert.com blog is right when you go to that site you get some sort of dating ad with a half arsed naked chic...can barely look at this stuff at work. What people will do to get an ad on a site...

You could use an RSS reader.

Anyway, as an Australian I'd like to apologise for Lleyton Hewitt. We don't like him much either
