I know, I know... but the books are cheaper than college, so it's not a totally bad deal.

We did that last year and settled just under 2% here in BE. I hear they are now to around 1% in some cases, it's crazy. Too bad the refinance costs a lot, or I would consider doing it again.

Having a nice time now watching a documentary on storytellers. Sunday evening is the perfect time for quiet, contemplative topics... no worries about work or hassles.

But back to the storytelling... it's fascinating how so much of what we think is bland and unexciting in our own lives can be fascinating and emotionally connecting to others. When we find reasons, connections, and wisdom and share them with others, we create bonds that run deep. The stories we tell share our values and build bridges across generations and cultures. It's fascinating...

BIG weekend coming up in the USA... Global Megacorporation gives everyone the 24th of December to the 2nd of January off, so I don't roll up to work until the 3rd.

Today and tomorrow are very light days, as most everyone has already shuffled off for the holiday. I'm working from home, responding to emails, but not doing a lot of changing since there's a change freeze in place. Time to get some comp time back from that major system upgrade and the two major outages I had to work a few weeks ago...

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and a Happy Festivus to all. Those are my holidays, so those are the ones I'm wishing to everyone. Feel free to wish a merry or happy whatever it is you like to do at the December-January interchange. :)

NE is going up there on the hate team list along with the Cowboys and Steelers for winning too many superbowls.

Hey, waitaminit!

I like the Cowboys! And Steelers. And Patriots. And while I'd like the Falcons to win, I'm going to watch the game for the sake of the game and enjoy it if it's close, like the Pats-Seahawks 2 years ago. Last year's and the Broncos-Seahawks games were just runaway ridiculous and were pretty much over after the first 137 touchdowns scored by the winning team in each contest...
