My two redheads



Here are the two redheaded girls in my life.
Hmmmmm....so cute.
What would I do without them?

That's Denver for you



Yesterday I was working outside in shortsleeves.

Today I woke up with 6 inches of snow on the ground.

In a few days, it will all be gone

That's Denver for you

Google's Ten Commandments

More fodder for the geeky mind

Here are some of my favorites highlight from Google's Ten Commandments

1. Focus on the user and all else will follow.


2. It's best to do one thing really, really well.


7. There's always more information out there.

Or, in the words of Donna Bogatin: Resistance is futile, we WILL control the world's information.
You can check out Donna's humorous interpretations at http://blogs.zdnet.com/micro-markets/?p=1143

Meeting Brain Freeze


I'm in a meeting brain freeze...
After 2-3 hours of meetings your brain descends into a semi-comatose state.

Hazy Memories Abound

Here is how I imagine the conversation going that informed this article
http://www.abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=2958073

Alberto: Man, who came up with that idea to fire all 93 district attorneys. Hmm...was that you Karl?

Karl: Dang...it's really hard to think that far back. I mean let's face it, I don't remember what I ate for breakfast this morning!

(group chuckles)

Alberto: Harriet, it sounds like an idea you would come up with.

Harriet: Controversial conversations are always very difficult to recall, I'm sure you understand. I don't think I can be of much help.

Tony: Sir, I need to give the public something. Certainly someone in here remembers whose idea it was.

Alberto: Maybe Kyle remembers. Kyle, was it your idea?
(moment of awkward silence)

Karl: Alberto, Kyle resigned several days ago

Alberto: Vision blurring...thick fog...so hazy...
