Who's got time?
I seriously wonder how people have the time to twitter or tumblr all day. I have to work for a living. Seriously. I’m jealous.

From the WSJ:
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is mobilizing its store managers and department supervisors around the country to warn that if Democrats win power in November, they’ll likely change federal law to make it easier for workers to unionize companies — including Wal-Mart.
In recent weeks, thousands of Wal-Mart store managers and department heads have been summoned to mandatory meetings...

I’m in the mood for a good conference. But which one?
Very excited by my work today. I love how that happens. One day I’m about to chuck it all and go work at the local Hobby Lobby because I’m so bored by the “problems” I’m working to solve… then the next, 5 new cool things pop up that catch my interest and get me all excited and challenged. Yesterday and today have been those kinds of days. Love it.

When you send me an email requesting help and you mark it Urgent with that little urgent flag option, you look like a big jerk, similar to someone rushing into the DMV and pushing their way to the head of the line.

Stop doing that.

thinking about publishing an article. About content on the web. Seems appropriate, considering what I do. I need to figure out how/where to get published. But I guess the real first step is to get the article written, huh?

ok, can someone explain those little secure “site key” pictures the banks and credit card companies are using on their sites these days? They make no sense to me? There is nothing about those pictures that helps to feel secure about the site I’m entering.

Unlike the previous enterprise apps we’ve been using, I was able to import my email and get myself acclimated and organized in about a 1/2 hour. My...
