    The weather here in MD is freakin awesome! 83 degrees and barely a cloud in the sky. PERFECTION!

    I'm off to Hershey Park tomorrow with some family. The weather is expected to be like today. Going to be an all around great weekend!

    One of the most stressful work weeks in recent memory. Plan on balancing it out at a Saturday afternoon Dodgers-Braves game at Turner Field and getting tanked.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Today is my Saturday, so my Friday night was last night. Went out with a girl from work for some great Italian food, wine and then off to the bar next door for several hours and pitchers of Bass Ale.

    No **** man. This week has blown @ss.....

    But I took off Monday so I am going to enjoy a ludicrously lazy, golf-filled 3 day weekend. I don't care if its 30 below and lightning out, I will play at least 1 round this weekend.

    The only good thing I can say about this week is that it has gone by FAST. Hopefully, my weekend will go by sloooooooooooooooooow.

    Isn't it?

    We went out walking at lunch today (as we do almost every day), and I asked one of my coworkers "how come it can't be like this every day" and he said "cuz you wouldn't appreciate it as much."

    Ain't that the truth? (I'm looking at you Californians)

    Heh, if you figure out how to make that happen you're a rich man. Bottle it up and sell it by the ounce...

    I was in Denver on Monday through Wednesday, 85 degrees on Tuesday, Snowing on Wednesday. Now that I am back in SoCal, yes, I appreciate the consistency of 76 to 86 degrees on any given day.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Going hiking tomorrow with some friends.

    Sunday we're supposed to be going to a Sox game - my buddy got TWELVE tickets in a row in the bleachers. Of course it's supposed to rain. D'oh.

    This has been one of those proverbial weeks from hell.

    The boss went on vacation, and I'm the guy that is willing to fill in when he's gone. We had a major telcom outage...A rat ate through one of our fiber optic cables that provided service to a majority of southern Az. I spent all night Wed and a good portion of Thurs dealing with the repair.

    It sucked that I ended working 34 hrs straight, but I made enough money to finally get the cool subwoofer I want.....

    Too bad they aren't in stock right now.:(
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    It's an extended weekend for me. Spent all day yesterday at Disneyland with the family, then went back again this morning with my friend Brenda. Picked my daughter up from school and went to see Ironman. Just beers and a movie in the theater tonight.

    Nothing to do tomorrow and then Sunday, brunch on the HB peir at Dukes.

    Well, among my wife, son and myself, we started the spring cleaning. The house (what part we can use) has been done, car totally (vacuum, shampoo carpet, washed, waxed and dried), BBQ cleaned for the season and the garage all cleaned and reorganized after the winter. Put the deck furniture out, clean it and throw the steaks on the BBQ and I’m done for today. Tomorrow I am going to relax.
