The 'Dave Has Been Sick' Update
Yes, that's right, it was time for my annual romantic week alone with rotavirus. My son introduced us, but I still love him.
So this will be one of those updates to what's going on since I've missed a week.
On the job hunt, I was thoroughly amused by this quote seen today...
Principal Duties and Essential Job Functions: [Name ommitted], a world-wide leader in
systems integration, consulting and outsourcing is seeking a Program Director to direct a leading edge, innovative technology
organization in its delivery of information systems to an internationally recognized center of transportation and logistics.
Our efforts support the clients research, analysis and engineering pursuit of solutions to lead transportation
into the 21st century. [emphasis mine]
Last time I checked, we were seven or eight years into the 21st century, depending on whether you like to
start counting from zero or one.
This next bit gets wierder. You may not remember the name Thomas F. Wilson, but if you are near my generation you probably do remember Biff from Back to the Future. Anyway, Biff is very annoyed at all the questions he keeps getting asked about all this from 20 years ago, so he put together
all his answers in a song. Click the screencap or here for The Question Song. (H/T to Kim Davidson)
Apparently while I was sick, peace came to Northern Ireland.
