If it is worth it to you to tick off a bunch of your online friends to publicly proclaim that you just earned a GymRat badge on Foursquare and you’re comfortable with the privacy issues of announcing where you are at every given moment, then more power to you. No badge, no mayorship, no virtual prize, no free sandwich is worth it.

Edgar Hoover Building I never would have been offered that black badge job with the US Treasury back in 1983. I doubt that is the case because if there was a connection between her and me in some dusty file in the basement of the J. That is always a challenge considering I have size 13 feet.
