Simmons started a new blog which sounds like a fun project to test.
to kick the blog off....4th of July was great. Got to see the fireworks, because i was near the river. That was fun. Got a bit wit but not much.
Vacation Rocks

Is it me...or I just don't like the "Create new post" location. I had to look for it when i first started this.
i think it should be move to the top header and be displayed all throughout when you signed on. Makes it easier to start a new post right away.
just my 2 cents.
oh its Friday. Vacation is coming to an end...This weekend i have to do my homework and be ready for classes.
i need a new digital cam

I read Prof. Menzin's post today about the blog picture and i agree.
lol...took me like 7 minutes to figure out why the picture would not upload.
worked fine after i figured out that you shouldn't check the box to delete current picture and upload at the same time.
maybe this should be specify...becuase others might experience the same problem.
in differnt note the ALS won tonights all star game. Good game though, was very close.

----------------------------------------
Why not Tip the IT guy?
You tip the pizza man, you don't tip the Fed Ex driver. You tip the bartender at the pub, and you don't tip the McDonald's clerk; but you do tip the barrista at Starbuck's. The United States has ritualistic levels of tip etiquette, which admittedly don't exist other places in the world but, the question remains; Why don't we tip our IT service people?
You know just as well as we do, you couldn't function without your computer. You'd find yourself on the floor in a fetal position, crying and sulking if your PC were to decide to go AWOL at any particular moment. And, much like a herion user out for another fix, you'd wipe your tears and head to the nearest coffee shop with pay access machines to obsessively check your email. We understand, we'd do much the same thing ourselves. If your computer is that important to the fluid function of your day-to-day life, why wouldn't you slip the IT guy a little extra to make sure you get top priority next time you pick up the phone and scream Mayday?
Perhaps it's something in the way we view our IT guys. Nerdy, socially inept, awkward in ways your high school science teacher could have never achieved. Maybe it's time we took a fresh look at the value our IT service men and women make life a little easier; And, even if we don't offer them a tip.. maybe a hug wouldn't be so bad?
