Valentine’s Day Post Analysis

Miscellaneous

I almost headed this “post mortem”, but decided that was a bit harsh.  Valentine’s turned out fairly well this year.  We had our fancy dinner at home Friday night, since we knew Saturday’s schedule would be a bit weird.   It was a very relaxing evening at home after an extremely taxing week. Saturday morning we woke … Read More “Valentine’s Day Post Analysis” »

It’s been a hell of a week.  Our network is finally back in one piece, thanks to Ginger’s work.  I put the finishing touches on a plan to spend over $1.5 million in taxpayer money over the next six months.  The good news is that by August all of my schools will be on Windows … Read More “” »

Busy week, and it’s only Tuesday.  the main core switch at one of our schools we down, so they lost connection to the network.  Never realize how dependent on technology you are until it goes away.

The campus itself is amazing, in a natural setting that is almost totally unrecognizable as a manufacturing facility.  It looks like a wooded office … Read More “” »

I’m at 30,000 feet somewhere over Alabama, on my way to Houston, Texas.  Hewlett-Packard is sending me and Ginger Waters to a conference at their expense.  It’s a shame they couldn’t back this up a couple of days and included a couple of tickets to a football game cum strip show.  At least we’re staying … Read More “” »

Super Hype

Rants

What can I say about the Super Bowl that hasn’t already been discussed ad nauseum in the media?  Janet Jackson flashed a boob on national TV.  So what?  Happens all the time on European TV.    Here’s the “so what”: the boob flash was part of a half-time stunt where Justin Timberlake was supposed to rip … Read More “Super Hype” »
