My Google-Fu Is Weak…

Really? No search hits for <grin alignment="evil" /> ?

The Cover Album I’d Buy

The original artists covering Weird Al’s spoof of their song… Red Hot Chili Peppers covering Bedrock Anthem. Coolio covering Amish Paradise.

Mind you, we’ve missed the boat on Nirvana covering Smells Like Nirvana or Michael Jackson covering Eat It.

A Week In The Life…

This is what my work week looked like the week I was in Lexington. Don’t let the gaps in the schedule fool you… I was just too busy to update my calendar to reflect the meetings I had in those times.

My Work Week in Lexington

BTW, my department is hiring, both developers and project managers. Don’t worry, your week won’t look like that. I just had to compact 9 months worth of meetings into less than 2 weeks.

Amr = Kaput. Nick & Dina = Tired.

Our file server, “Amr”, died last weekend. Despite being RAID1 and having an additional backup, we have no files as all three disks seem corrupted. If we’ve ever sent you pictures on CDs or DVDs, can you send them (or a copy) back to us?

I spent 5 days in the Netherlands last week instead of the expected 3, working relatively long hours. As a result, both Dina and I are tired… weary almost. We’re looking forward to spending the weekend in, without impending travel, for the first time in ages.

Skip lunch.

Late supper.

Only restaurant open at 21:51 in this town: Burger King.
