Catching Up

It’s been a busy travel week, with the trip to Idaho, followed by stops in Orlando and New York. I missed one picture from my trip to Idaho. Here’s a sunset picture of the Grand Tetons: The Giants won a hard-fought game in Philly…

Dulles AeroTrain

I had to fly United out of IAD today. I got to the airport a bit early, and decided to go check in at the Admirals Club so they would get credit for me stopping by. I was a victim of very good timing…

Blackberry Storm Update

Thanks to David for pointing out this thread: http://techland.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2008/10/31/verizon-mulls-heavily-discounted-blackberry-storm/ Interesting theory, although looks like a race to bankruptcy for AT&T and Verizon.

The Science of Politics

Obama’s 30-Minute Infommercial

Well produced. Still have no idea how he plans to accomplish all of his goals, which constitute a lengthy list. Some of the ones I find hard to fathom: Cut taxes for all families who make less than $200K. Freeze foreclosures for 90 days….

Vegas

I’ve been in Vegas on business since Thursday, and haven’t stopped moving since. Thursday started with an early morning flight from the East Coast, a 6:00pm dinner meeting followed by a 9:30pm dinner meeting. I finally had some time to play poker on Saturday,…

Update

Been traveling the last few days. David was released from the hospital a few hours after my last post on Wednesday. Just antibiotics to clear up pneumonia, no blood clots. A welcome relief. More to follow later….

David Update

Don’t you love it when doctors agree? David is feeling much better. The chest pain has resided, and he is noticeably more animated. But his doctors can’t agree on what ails him. The pulmonologist and infectious disease specialist both agree on a rare strain…
