Nice tat.. That center channel is huge, looks a bit like Polk audio, is it ?

Nothing new with me, both my girls started school again, getting ready for Biketoberfest in Daytona mid-October. I was in Tampa yesterday and saw Ken, we did lunch and toyed with the server in his comp room.

Wishing you a speedy recovery, Ronny. I know those sorts of injuries are long lasting and will continue to pain you indefinitely...

Congrats on the empty nest Lefty. If she is mostly self supporting at 19, my hat is off to you.
And Easto on the promo.
And Dan on the awesome tat, sound system and trips to Hawaii.
And a hello to the rodent!

I have been busy. Lots of traveling. Will probably crash Philip's house tomorrow or Wed. as I have business in Jax. (He thinks because he call blocks my phone that it will keep me away from his house!

) Although with a beachside hotel, I will probably have to call block him!

Post his picture in the lobby with a diagonal red line through it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111111111

LMAO!

Still working on new house and probably will never get it finished!

The Rays aren't doing good and the Bucs are starting out bad, so my hope is that the Lightning will be starting soon and keep up playing like they did last season...

My son will be born any day now. Wifey is 4cm dilated and ready to get on with it.

Daughter is 8, going on 13. She hits a mean tennis ball, can shred a sick "Old Joe Clark" on the fiddle, and in 3rd grade, she is taller than most 5th grade girls at her school.

I've been working from home since April as a project manager for a medical software company. Its nice not driving 30 miles one way to work everyday and I will be home to see my baby boy grow up, but on the flip-side, it is the most stressful job I've ever had and kinda feels like I'm constantly working from about 7am to 10pm nearly every night due to having customers in all time zones. I can no longer sit at my computer and just relax and play a video game or surf the web casually. My home computer is my work zone and just sitting in the room makes me feel like I'm supposed to be productive at all times.

My wife says I'm always grouchy when I'm sitting in my office and my friends tell me I look and sound stressed out all the time. Hopefully I made the right call in this job change. The pay and benefits are awesome so I'm trying to stick with it for awhile and see how it goes, but I kinda miss doing the actual tech work. Now I tell the tech people to do the work and I end up going nuts when it takes long or they don't get it right and I have to face the customer and keep them updated and happy. I'm just not used to having to rely on so many other people to make a customer happy. I wore all the hats before.. It was all on me and I was good at it and my customers were happy. Now I'm dealing with physicians and medical professionals that can be a real pain and its proving impossible to keep everyone happy. I take my work personal, so when a customer is not happy, I lose sleep. I've been losing way too much sleep lately.. and the baby isn't even here yet.

Yeah it's getting crazy stressful with my healthcare clients...especially those that don't listed to our strong advice as to what to have on their network (proper UTM firewall, disaster recovery, patch management, etc).

If that is you in your avatar, Debbie, then that baby looks like a miniature version of you.

I got accepted into the honors program for my 2nd year of college, that means my tuition was waved this year. If I can graduate with honors then when I transfer schools, I can get into their honors program by default. My is to goal is to ride on honor's scholarships as long as I can, and hopefully I won't be in debt from student loan into old age. I should be over the age of 40 by the time I am done with school, so if I can't keep this debt down, I will be paying it back until I am an old man. That is a bit of a depressing thought, but the education is well worth it.

Yes, that is me in my avatar...

She does look a lot like her mom when she was a baby. I saw the pictures. She has my son's eyes and other features from our side of the family. It will be interesting to see how she changes as she grows. Ha Ha, I told my son he will have a child that will look like me sooner or later. He just laughed.

Here is my son:
