Behavioral Interviewing – A Historical Perspective
January 25, 2011
We think of Behavioral Interviewing as a relatively new technique employed by HR folks in their quest for the holy grail of all employees.
What we don’t realize is that the interview method was conceived by Monty Python over 40 years ago. Ahead of their time they were.

I liked The Mamas and the Papas. so by default I liked Ellen Cohen - even if our top 40 radio stations refused to play her stuff. This one, you were most likely to hear on ‘OB68 , or CJAD- the radio stations of choice for the older generation (30+). I play it in the key of F.

Weekend Escape
December 30, 2009
Saturday Night Live has been offering up little pieces of pop culture moments to North American TV viewers for the past 35 years or so.
One of those episodes that caught on and really stuck to the ribs of pop culture is the “More cowbell” sketch which satirizes the original recording of one of Blue ÖysterCult’s biggest hits.
Will Farrell’s part (the fictional cow bell player Gene Frenkle) actually crosses the line between fiction and fact for some SNL viewers.
At the end of the SNL segment flashes an “In the memory of Gene Frenkle” on the screen – apparently the real band Blue Öyster Cult, often gets messages of sympathy from “fans”.

The most dangerous thing for anyone in the late 60s early 70s was partaking in some sort of smoking ritual and then turning on Monty Python’s Flying Circus. It was really possible to die laughing. How much Would You pay for an Argument?
