Last week I completed my three year long journey toward Cisco certification. I started about three years ago, but work kept getting in the way. I am now a Cisco certified voice professional. If you don’t care, ignore this post.

We got a new dog yesterday, Sallee Anne. She is wonderful. She slept all through the night in the living room, since she wouldn’t go to the bedroom. She hasn’t explored the rest of the house yet, just the living room, dining room and kitchen. She is two and a half so all those puppy [...]

Last night we went to my sister-in-law’s chorus concert. I learned something there, which surprised me. What I learned is this:

“A thirty year mortgage at Michael's age essentially means he's buying a coffin. If I were buying my coffin, I would get one with thicker walls, so you couldn't hear the other dead people.”

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, or MODIS, on NASA’s Aqua satellite captured this true-color image of Hurricane Celia at 1:55 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on June 24, 2010. Just five minutes later, the U.S. National Hurricane Center classified Celia as a Category 4 hurricane with sustained winds of 135 miles per hour. Image Credit: NASA
