I am mean to my Mindbenders.
Since getting them in February, I have asked them to slog through shin-deep mud and skitter over ice. I’ve splashed through knee-deep, near-freezing streams and over miles and miles of rocks and wintery slop.

Hey, deployers: Get your M-Dub on and be prepared for your benchmates to suck the bandwidth out from under you as Skype offers up free calls to any country playing in the World Cup through July 11, 2010.
*The small print says you’ll need an Skype account with a credit card on file (so they can roll you into a paid account after the promo ends, I’m guessing.) Also, there’s something about limiting the promotion to 100k subscriptions, so hurry up and sign on.
Skype -Details and sign up here.
