Sometime today Tom and the rest of the advance team head out to Kuwait. I've had a lot of time to talk to him this week and he's got a positive attitude and I'm just gonna hope for the best that he and the rest of the unit do their jobs and make it back home. A few prayers here and there probably won't hurt either.
I've tried to scan and upload some of the Galva News articles online and may have to go back to the drawing board and try to make the files smaller. But I am working on it. Thus far, the traffic increase isn't anywhere near what I feared so that's good news.
As for other news, I start at Aristocrat Technologies on Monday. Yes, I am finally gainfully employed and not just scratching for the odd contract like I have for the past months and isn't THAT a relief? This is the company that bought out Casino Data Systems so its kind of like going back to some of the same faces. Should be fun.
Too bad I read this story on people's negative views about their work environment. I don't care myself, I'm just happy to have something to do.
Hmm...weekend wrap-up. The Bartman Ball did get blown up. Story and footage here. A strange article about gamers and the importance of gameplay over plot. A live actual sighting of a Michigan wolverine and why that is odd. And for any English-firsters out there, a story on the decline of English speakers across the world. Guess we all need to pick up the pace and crack the books.
