Here in Illinois we have been hearing about the Rod Blagojevich fiasco for weeks. I have been busy for the last few weeks and have not watched the news or his trial – but I did happen to catch that as soon as he was impeached – IL spent $15,000 to remove signs on our […]
Yesterday for the first time I actually got the chance (or remember) to see a lot of the activities prior to the actual presidential inauguration. As someone that absolutely loves history – yesterday was so magical for so many reasons. First of all – to see over 2 million people peacefully (no arrests) come together […]
For the first time in over 10 years – A, E, and I took a week and went on vacation. We usually take weekend trips to see family but have never taken anything longer than a weekend trip (vacation) together…until last week. We flew down to Florida to see some of my family and then […]
Chicago is a beautiful city. It has a beautiful lakefront, a beautiful skyline, and a beautiful grid layout. Check out this awesome night photo that shows the grid system: http://www.flickr.com/photos/myelectricsheep/343703624/sizes/l/
Something I have known for years…now everyone else does too 😉 Go Penn State.
Well, I had tickets to the Western Open today. I have to say, it was pretty darn cool to see some of my favorite players in action. To see them hit great shots and then to turn around and have difficuly in the sand…well it was priceless. It made me feel much better about my […]
Well, St. Louis is no San Francisco, and definitely no Chicago, but I had some great tapas last night at Mosaic. I have been so busy travelling and creating presentations, I have not had time to sit down and do a few tech tips and HOWTO posts, but never fear, I will be up for […]
Feel free to whip out the “wrap it up” box, but I have to give my summary on San Francisco in ten thoughts or less. San Francisco…inital thought: “hate the airport” (it is just not O’Hare). Second random thought…”damn this weather is awesome.” Third random thought…”holy cow, there is no grass, just rows of houses.” […]
New Jersey…home of Continental’s hub, a handful of people that I love, and a lot of trash. Growing up in New York, my classmates and I read about the dirty needles on the NJ beaches in our Weekly Readers and never imagined wanting to spend any time there. In college, all I heard was “are […]
I have never denied it, I am a complete Coke addict (Coca Cola of course). I love to drink Coke, collect Coke memorbilia (not to the point where it is a problem), and I just love Coca Cola’s history and company in general. When I found out I had a business meeting in Atlanta, I […]
