Snow Day

Hope you guys are all safe at home and reading all the great books like this
you got for the holidays. That’s where I am and today will be spent catching up on reading, bookkeeping (hate the end of the fiscal year), and killing genetic mutants in a video game
Then again, given the 18 or so inches of snow we’ve received in the last 18 hours, I don’t think there is much else I can do today.   Maybe that shovel thing but frankly I’d rather clean out the drives of some old computers and tighten up the network here at the world headquarters.

No business points today – we can all use a little R&R I think.  I’d love to hear about your holiday, the gifts you got, the food you ate.   Or not – we can all use a day or five off, right?  I’ll be posting some “best of” this week so I’m not exactly off.  Check back when you can!

It’s in the news this morning with a court decision that actually makes an excellent business point as well.   While you might have seen the news story, I’m not so sure you thought about it in those terms.  That’s why I’m here!
