Busy morning — e-mail, webcast and teleconference. Now things slow down.

Webcast and teleconferences are why I have choose not go into management so far. Powerpoint and spreadsheets I find fun.

It's all Powerpoint and Word here.

Webcasts are sometimes useful sources of information for me. The one this morning had a VERY useful item of information in it.

The teleconferences aren't too bad. It's interesting what a broad range we now have geographically -- this morning's was Europe and North America, yesterday's first was North America and India, and the second North America and the UK.

LOL, in the second some folks I only know by name & voice began to introduce me to the fellow from the UK -- but he and I have been working together on technical committees since 1996!

I would not go into management here. I see how heavily they get overloaded.

Dang thread got stuck again. Guess we’ll have to spray it for those glue-totin’ spiders.

Only if it comes with a laurel.

Now I will take a shower.

That’s from “Blazing Saddles”, which any serious-minded person should attempt to memorize.

I knew that. Sometimes I feel bad about having all this drivel in my brain.

A letter from Anoreth arrived today. She sounded very chipper, and says her present company, 181-Z, is much better than her previous one, 181-W. She’s on the committee to design a company t-shirt. She got to do pugil-stick fighting, whatever that is, and hiking with rifles, and firefighting.

Sort of a successor to quarterstaffs, I gather. A useful skill you don't want to have to need these days, but if you do...

Oh gosh.

Oh gosh.

Then again, you said "attempt." How hard? I attempted and failed. One whole second of my life wasted!

[many questions squelched]

Good night all..

The pugil-stick seems to be a big, padded, two-handed thingie. Whatever, at least she had fun. Of course she got knocked over, since she’s tiny even compared to the other girls in the unit.

Have a good night!

I had more fun converting all of Shakespeare’s work into pig latin.

I'm sorry to have to tell you, but it was a wasted effort.

The pigs still won't be able to read it.
