(Largest radio nerd fest in the world) It was a really great trip, zero airline problems, all the talks I went to were interesting and nice chats at dinner each night.
Saw fewer 'amazing' new toys this year, but I'm probably just getting jaded or know to much. I only purchased a few little things, including a old book from the ARRL I've been looking for and couldn't find. ($2!) I'll probably order up a Icom IC-31 in the next month or so, they are really amazing little radios. I'm really lazy and didn't buy one this weekend because I didn't want to deal with trying to pack it.
So even after multiple days of hiking around on hot asphalt, my knee did really well. Little sore in the evenings, but nothing some ice and an adult beverage couldn't fix. I even rode the exercise bike at the hotel on Thursday and Friday for 30 minutes before doing all my exercises. Big milestone next week, visit my surgeon on Thursday.
Now I just want to get home to my family. The evening skype calls just isn't enough….

Single white guy through security always equals full anal probe measures. Even got full pat down.
Sigh.
Now Dayton & big @radio nerdfest!

No matter what day it is or what time they go to bed, both Rosie and Isaac are up by 6:30! Don't they realize that there is practically a law against getting up this early on a Saturday?
The result is that I'm up. Starbuck's run is complete. Two loads of laundry are done. And I've already moved several loads of dirt from the corner mess in the front yard to the hole in the backyard. Now it is time to shower and run to the geek brunch with the #wetnet group. Sigh….

NOTE: COE = document one must write following a major screw up, which describes how the screw up happen and what your going to-do to make sure ie never happens again.
NOTE2: m.com is what Amazon calls the websites we run for other companies.
NOTE3: rainier team = the team I use to be on….
NOTE4: I never got to learn the 'art of the dragon' and I'm a little bummed about that.

COE?!? Really??
Come on guys. What is that going to read like? "The rainier team will add a
monitor to our metrics dashboard. That monitor will tell upper management and TAM how many times the rainier team has flown to the Adobe offices and like ninjas infiltrated their build nodes and absconded with the latest flash build.
We will also report on how that dev version of flash runs on every m.com,
because ninjas take no time to do anything. The rainier team will be
requesting a slight increase in budget and head count to meet this
requirement as we need grappling hooks and a ninja master to teach us the
art of the dragon."

Sorry to Ben, this was just to funny to not share…..
