Feels like an old joke, but I could be wrong. One thing struck me: I couldn't think of a single Jewish relative friend or acquaintance named Alexander. This cleared some naming tradition history http://ohr.edu/yhiy... (see last three paragraphs). "And that's one to grow on." :)

Micah, yes, it's an old joke. (I think I heard it in the 90s.) And that's a fascinating article, thanks.

Took forever for the email to send (multiple times it would seem), so this has already made its way into my belly. Quite tasty!

The secret of Inbox Zero is to treat your Inbox as a triage. When e-mail comes in, the primary goal is to sort them, not to read them. Your Inbox should not be a place for e-mail to accumulate until handled; it should be a place for it to appear and to be whisked away into some organizational structure.
yep. sorting. whisked away into organizational structure.

I have the computer doing the sorting for me. I have, effectively, three states: visible in my inbox (first page in gmail, pagesize of 25), starred items thereof, and everything else, which is just archived. I do have some filters and labels, but I rarely if ever visit the label as a whole, it's mainly just to call it out different when I'm reading it.

People must not forget to ask why it's always been done a certain way though. There are sometimes good reasons. If there isn't, it at least gets you thinking more about the problem and solutions that make sense.

Let us not forget this one though: 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"
