Photo Project 52. Week 8 – Ricks
February 27th, 2011This week’s photo trip lead me to a cemetery, Oak Hill in Taylorville, Illinois to be specific. I stopped at a couple different locations in the cemetery and shot a couple different things, but this specific mausoleum stood out. The (what I assume were) once shiny copper doors are now a brilliant turquoise color, and fairly ornate when compared [...]
Windows 7 SP1 is out, time to get back some HD space
February 22nd, 2011Well, it’s that time of the season again where Microsoft pushes out a new service pack. This time it is Service Pack 1 for Windows 7.

Photo Project 52. Week 7 – Lunar

I believe we have lacked accountability and leadership to align and direct the company through these disruptive times. We had a series of misses. We [...]
Photo Project 52. Week 5 – Frozen
February 6th, 2011I told you to expect snow because that was what was supposed to happen, and while a lot of places got a lot of snow, we didn’t get near the amount we were supposed to (thankfully). Unfortunately what we did get was ice. Ice on EVERYTHING. Sure, my car may have been frozen in the [...]
