  • Team dynamics

    OK third time I’m trying to get this post done.  Not sure what keeps happening, but for some reason when I try to post, the main body blanks out.  Anyway, here is a slightly abbreviated version of what I wrote the first two times: I spent the last few days in some senior management meetings…

  • Getting things done…literally!

    My work life feels like it finally is coming into balance.  I still have alot of things to get done, but I have better visibility and control over what they are.  A new guy started on my team this past week and that has helped.  Although he’s still coming up to speed, just knowing that…

  • Major blog upgrade

    Well, as you can probably see, my blog site has changed quite a bit since the last time you may have been here.  I spent some time getting some mods to the COREBlog product I have been using to make it look more like a Moveable Type formatted blog that was developed by these guys. …

  • Tablet PC – way cool!

    Been using my new Tablet PC for about a week now. Its a brand new TC1100 from HP. It’s very small, very fast and very cool. It does everything I need a machine to do and I have to say it is one of the bext out of the box experiences I have had with…

  • Too much travel

    I have been travelling way too much laetly. I have been home for only two complete weeks this entire year and it looks like I won’t be home for another entire week until June. I really need to get some more people on board to get some of the work done. Just feels like no…

  • I love March

    Go CATS! Really excited about March this year.  For the first time in 3 years, the cats have made it past the first round and are in the sweet 16.  I have really enjoyed the games in this year’s tournament and am really looking forward to the games this weekend.  We have Utah first, which…

  • Whoa…been too long

    Boy, has it been a while since my last post.  I have been travelling every week this year so far save one and it looks like that will continue for the forseeable future.  I almost liked it better when we were downsizing and sisn’t have money for web coferences, much less plan tickets!   Seriously,…
