The Business Ethics Blog

Today is the 3rd ‘blogaversary’ of The Business Ethics Blog!

Yes, it was 3 years ago today — November 20th, 2005 — that I burst Out of the starting blocks. In the blogosphere, 3 years is a long time (I’m told the average life of a blog is about 3 months).

Over the last 36 months, I’ve made 389 blog postings (including this one). To celebrate, I thought I’d simply share with you a few of my favourites. Actually, I’m in such a jocular mood I’m just going to share what I think are my funniest blog postings. Some of these I like because the stories they’re based on are themselves funny; others I just like because of some wise-crack that amuses me. Indulge me.
