There were a few things that crossed my line of vision today that I thought you might be interested in.For example at what seemed to be a decent eating establishment was posted this sign:
Now who in their right mind is really going to want to eat there? Is this a dare to see if I am man enough for the challenge? I guess when I am 60 and get cancer I will know who to blame.
Knight Rider
You gotta feel sorry for this guy. He used to be the definition of cool. Knight Rider was awesome, second only to Airwolf (but that is another story). What happend? Now he looks like Ricky Martin with White Man Rhythm. And what is with the Inuit winter apparel? Is it hard to keep your balance when you fly? Why were his visual stunts filmed before E.T.? At least in E.T. I thought they were flying when I was 8. That flying wouldn't fool a kid watching out of the corner of their eye and playing with a Rubik's cube.
Those fine visuals kept me going today. Hope they brightened yours.
I am in sunny California right now, but why is it that I have hardly seen the light of day since I have been here? Is this just my fate as a software engineer to never see the sun and wear translucent skin for the rest of my life?
When I am travelling (on business) I work three times as much as I do when I am at home in the office. It could be that I have nothing better to do so I just work when I am on the road, but whatever the reason my company is definitely getting their money's worth when I am on the road. That is saying something lately. I will post where my travels have taken me in 2005 soon, and I will start a travel log for 2006 as well.
If the training and meetings continue to go as they have for the last couple of days, my trip to California will be a little less than sunny. At least the golf courses are open here, if I ever get to see one...
I have always been a fan of Google, searching, Froogle, Gmail, Google Earth, and of other things that I have heard is on the horizon for them. Today I even found out about Blogger, another Google project.Today I was contacted by a talent scout at Google. Who knew that they were hiring? I mean honestly, I never thought of the people behind what seemed like a simple search engine. How do they make money? It seems like everything they make is for free, and better than any other free service out there. Can there be that much money to be made from advertising alone?
Maybe I will have an interview and maybe I will ask them the tough questions. Or maybe I will just get the interview and do all I can to still seem appealing after they meet me in person. Or maybe I won't get the interview at all. Who knows, but that was definitely one of the more interesting things that has happend to me lately.
Bun good, veggies good, sauce good, meat good!
Dinner and a coronary all in one...
