When I was little I used to lie wide awake in the dark at night in bed wondering. How do I know I’m me? How do I know I’m not somebody else? Or if somebody else is me? And if somebody else is me, who is it? Was that me who pinched my brother’s comic book this afternoon? I’d do tests to try to work i...

Joey Comeau's slim book of cover letters are anything but the soulless missives that I and a bazillion other job-seekers spit out daily to HR departments around the globe. They're funny, painful, and well worth reading. [ full review ]

Right up my alley of course, since job hunting and cover letters are near and dear. I might have tinkered with the sequencing a bit in places, but either way very enjoyable. Also I like that it's called Overqualified and not Underqualified. Amen to that. Life, you know?
