Done traveling. Or so I thought.

December 19, 2007

I’m finally done traveling for this year. I had just started this post in which I wanted to cheer over being back home for the holidays when Miles came walking in and asked me whether it would be OK to assign me to yet another project… off-site. In a project that is due before the end of this year the project manager realized today that they were in desperate need of another 80 or so man-hours. – I don’t have the time to write about the details, now, for I am getting ready to go… Oh, as an aside, I am supposed to take the laptop.


Me an Angeber?

December 13, 2007

Germans really have the best Schimpfwörter in the world. I’m messaging with Luke when he tries to send me a file. I tell him that there are 2 firewalls that block this kind of traffic. His cold response:

Angeber

Well, maybe I was showing off. What’s the best term for him, however, when he also proceeds to tell me that he has turned off his personal firewall? German, anyone?
