Wordless Wednesday….
…because there really are no words… *Full disclosure…These pics weren’t taken by me…a friend’s wife took them as I was in the air somewhere over Montana at the time… If I had missed my flight, I would have seen it. I missed my once in a lifetime opportunity to fly across country to a job [...]
I am not a PC…
So here it is. I bought a MacBook. After literally 10+ years of being a “Dell Guy”, well Dell finally ran out of laptops that I found interesting. My last notebook, the Adamo13 was one of my favorites. Ultra slim, solid state just about everything. Could do a 5 hour plane-ride without issue. But I [...]
Week 26…
Thank gods it’s halfway over. Thank god I still have six months to go. As illogical as it seems, there are reasons behind this seemingly conflicting statement. This week I’m closing out week #26 of this consulting gig. The one that has me flying across country, the one that keeps me from my kids. Originally [...]
Six days does not a week make…
My favorite quotes, from one of my favorite movies (“Barefoot in the park” -Robert Redford, Jane Fonda, 1967, though I first saw it as a TV stage production starring Bess Armstrong and Richard Thomas in 1981) (I’m writing this from Seat 1A of AirTran flight 749 to Baltimore, which is just *WAY* too cool for words. [...]
It’s raining….
Friday/Saturday I gave up the majority of my weekend to work on a stupid project at work, conceived by stupid people to stupid purposes.. The fact that on Monday morning there was a minimum of problems can only mean one thing. They failed at being stupid. *AFTER* giving up 24 hours in two days, I [...]
Dear Wisconsin and Ohio: #WIunion #OHunion
We are a country arguing over the last cookie instead of going after the guys who took the rest of them.
Congress….
I keep telling myself I’m going to get away from blogging about politics, and starting writing about things that carry a more personal meaning for me. But this week I found that politics touched me very personally. Most of you who follow me on twitter know I’m a government contractor. This week I’ve discovered that [...]
It’s 2am and I’ve lost my mind.
It’s 2am and a whole number of random thoughts are rolling through my head. **I can’t sleep. I should be sleeping but I can’t. I have a long day and I know I have a long day but my brain is buzzing with everything from my realization that I’m back to not eating to the [...]
The Times they are a-changin’
It’s funny, but I always get this funny look when I talk about technology being alive, evolving, and maybe even slightly sentient. We dumped cable TV today. And it got me to thinking on how certain technologies just become obsolete after a while. We did it because the only ones who watched TV in our [...]
Every workplace has one… *RANT*
But I work in government, so there are several in mine. But one in particular makes me rethink my position on workplace violence on a daily basis. You know the type that makes you daydream of dangling someone by a foot off the tallest building around, knowing that your upper body strength sucks and that it would [...]
