    WaPo does its annual "spring cleaning" list of things we should do away with. Their list includes engagement rings, smart phones, tipping, small talk, seniority-based firing.

    I'd add "corporate-think" and the U.S. Postal Service. You?

    Sorry. I learned to end sentences with prepositions when I played for Nolan Richardson at Arkansas.
