Sorry for being MIA these last few days. I am off to a trade show this evening and spent last week desperately trying to get some web technology operational. It’s not quite as polished as I would like, but it basically works and for once, I am not desperately hacking until the second I have to physical leave. So I may try to get a few quick hits in today. Or not.
Have a safe and successful trip.
You’ll be down our way where the weather the last couple of weeks has been a perfect “day in June.” Hope it stays that way while you’re here.

I don’t think any of us would hold your occasional gap in posting against you. It happens to the best of us. :-)

I made it back. It was an OK conference, not clear it was worth the effort. I think the organization is hurting — the final set of booths was about half of the original inventory which is not a good sign. We had a booth directly across from Ernst&Young, which is not a good sign (for others — it was great for us). Still, you don’t know until you try. At least our tchotchkes were popular.
And you know you’re an old fogey when you’re walking around in the sunshine at Universal Studio’s Citywalk and you think “gosh, I think I’d rather go hang out in the airport waiting for my flight”. I did get “Thing 1”, “Thing 2”, and “Thing 3” shirts for the spawn. SWIPIAW thought that would be cool.

SWIPIAW is still working on getting simultaneous wearing. I’ll post a picture when that is mission accomplished.

Thanks. What a great family. They’re all adorable, but don’t tell Thing 1, I don’t think he’d take it as a compliment.
