Column in Sprout: I’m in deep shit!?
According to Sprout Magazine I’m in trouble.
But not really.
I’m writing a column for them in their ‘ExpertLog‘ and the last one is titled “Tot de ellebogen in de stront” which roughly translates to “Up to my elbows in manure“. It isn’t about ’shit’ but I use a few quotes to make a point.
On the front page of their site they use a teaser message with the title “Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten in de stront” which roughly translates to “Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten in deep shit“. I’m sure that will attract a lot of attention!
Here are the quotes I used in the article:
“One mans trash is another mans treasure”
“Garbage in, Garbage out”
“To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.”
“The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not ‘Eureka!’ (I found it!) but ‘That’s funny’ …’”
“Let a thousand flowers bloom”
“Just because something doesn’t do what you planned it to do doesn’t mean it’s useless.”

I like this one the most:
To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.
You sure get interviewed a lot.
