I can cook.


Today was try #2 (don't ask about #1) in my attempt to make an edible dinner.

The result:




yum.

 

Normal?


"... in today's world having a Hungarian-Uraguayan servicing American banks with Montevidean engineers managed by Indian technologists who have learned to eat Uruguayan veggie is just the new normal"

After a Long Layoff...


The blog is back with a useless post.

In the time gone, I have gone to San Antonio, Big Bend National Park, and Mexico. Pictures of the trips are on facebook.

That's all I really have to say.

Action Packed Saturday...


included:

0. Walk in the crazy wind and rain.

1. Trip to the Bank where they have only drive through lanes so I walked through.

2. Farmer's Market visit where I ate all the free samples.

3. Breakfast at a fancy hotel becuase I'm fancy.

4. Irish Pub to watch the world cup becuase there's nothing more fun than drunk Irish people.

5. Gym

6. Read a book outside at UT.

IBM has this policy that...


we should do nothing at the office that causes a "Conflict of Interest", meaning anything that distracts us from our work. Last week, we decided to start a World Cup Pool in our little work area with the winner getting a to be determined fancy prize:



Something tells me this qualifies as one of those conflicts of interest.

Today I Picked Up...


The Dallas Morning News and read it cover to cover while sitting around the UT campus. After slugging through the ridiculous number of articles dealing with the Dallas Mavericks and the NBA finals I finally came across this, tucked away in Section "I":



Check out the webpage here...I'm going.

I Thought Everything Was Bigger in Texas...


Well, apparently Texans are liars. When walking today I saw a mini Eiffel Tower AND a mini Statue of Liberty:




Also, I noticed they have "Drive Thru Beer" here...
