My curiosity drives my technology

Increasingly in the last few years, my curiosity of how things work and how we can make life more efficient has driven my technology skill development. I have the opportunity to be surrounded by some very talented technology people. It all starts with Monica McCoy: She is the one who insures our schedules are in tack and quizzes on the projects we are working on. Her excitement toward improving each of us ignites my sticktoitivness on all the projects I participate. She is awesome. Sharon Logsdon: she is the coldest woman I know (literally not figuratively, she always has the heater on). Sharon makes me think and keeps me on my toes; her fiery passion on making sure everything works makes me walk with my eyes wide open and watch for potential pitfalls. She is awesome. Steve Kirtley: He is the tall one who ponders and contemplates efficiency all the time. It is so much fun working with him; especially on Monday mornings when he comes and tells tales of how he did a gigapan or went canoeing or hanggliding or kayaking or biking on the weekends, all the things I never do. He is awesome and cool. Jay Morgan: He is one of my former students. The problem is that he doesn't remember having me as a teacher... I must have made quite an impression. Jay's talents are amazing. He speaks a language of technology that only his wife can love; me I just stand in amazement when he speaks. The gsi transliteration that the msi jigawatt defragged while modulating for virtual memory expansion on the bandwidth infrastructure of vpn progressiveness...speaks volumes. He is awesome. and then there was Lee Jordan: THE MAN: Just so you know he had an email address in 1973. The knowledge he possesses is mind boggling. He has more ideas than Hogan's Goat (I don't know where that phrase came from???) I appreciate his drive, wisdom and patience. It is great working with someone who is organized, a characteristic I struggle with...

  2. Okay, so I was almost offended when I read the "cold" part; but then I realized it was true. My family is always teasing me about being cold. I am always feeling a draft or sitting under an air conditioner vent or so they say... Maybe I should move to a warmer climate, maybe Florida... Can I vpn to work from there and keep my job, you think???
