This morning I was cruising around the Internet, as I'm wont to do, and I came across this gem from last summer:
Spending a day in the life of a customer including a #selfie with Deadmau5 #oneintuit @divinecassie pic.twitter.com/mOaNHa5i1T

Any time I see Deadmau5, I'm puzzled. Masks are creepy, no matter how you slice it. Plus, how the hell does he breathe in that thing? The hot moisture collecting around whatever mouth hole there is has to be disgusting. And apparently he's a QuickBooks user? That's even more baffling.
Brad Smith, on the other hand, is either a genuine Deadmau5 fan (a frightening thought) or is one of those dads who's trying to convince his kids that he doesn't hate their taste in music.
Whatever's going on here, I thought I'd share so everyone can enjoy the weird.

In a November 15 letter to the SEC, FAF chairman John J. Brennan wrote that reducing FASB’s role in setting U.S. financial reporting standards “may weaken the positive leverage that U.S. GAAP and U.S. standard setting have provided to improving accounting standards for investors in the world’s most robust and transparent capital markets.” The FAF also disputed the SEC staff’s proposed goal of achieving one set of global accounting standards. Instead, the organization feels that “a more practical goal for the foreseeable future is to achieve highly comparable (but not necessarily identical) financial reporting standards among the most developed capital markets that are based on a common set of international standards.” [
