    Good afternoon if anyone is still around... Since I seem to be in non-stop meetings for the last few weeks, I'll share with the class a new buzz word that is being over utilized..."deep dive". As in, "we will deep dive the requirements for those data next week."

    Where is AleeD when I need her. ~_~

      We will deep dive to achieve six sigma, world class, market driven quality that at the end of the day will help us to take it to the next level in term of market segmentation leadership and develop a paradigm shift. We need to wrap our heads around this, Let's ballpark this and think outside the box otherwise we'll have to go back and sharpen our pencils and find the bandwith to rightsize our organization, and I think I can say with certainty that we'll have to manage the optics of this to put the right number of boots on the ground.

        Make it stop! This has been my life (he!!) the past few weeks...and let's not forget to "ready the playground so that the SME's can start using the sandbox". Odie would be jealous.

    Ok, as if we needed it, here is proof positive that there are just as many political tools on the right as on the left:

    Hacks, one and all and need to be thrown out!

        Tried to post on the cereal thread and could not get it to post. Maybe a vitamin deficiency.

    Dodged another bullet in SNJ – no snow, no rain. This has been the mildest winter I can remember. Light dusting of snow Chrismas Eve, and then 1" in January. Lots of rain, though.

    Anyway, I signed up to take a 45-minute Webinar today entitled "Living in the Moment." I had to cancel because I have too much work to take the time to attend this Webinar. I think that means I really need it. Oh well, maybe next time.

    I hope everyone enjoys the day! Be well!

    Good morning all! Hey Truth, how ya doing today? You just keep the slopes snow covered. As long as there is snow, it delays my bosses return from Colorado. We got some 40 degree weather coming this weekend. It will be a welcome change. When is spring coming again? I am so ready to get outside, and start working in my flower beds. It won't be long, I hope.
    My take on the pic. Note to self: Dr. Klatsch (from yesterday) had many compliments on his pelvic exams from all the women yesterday. Warm, gentle hands were mentioned a lot. Today, I'll try him in proctology. We'll see how the guys like his warm gentle hands. Have a good day all!

    Good morning from a springlike Denver. Although, it sounds like we could be getting "significant" snowfall this weekend. Always gets interesting when that word gets thrown around.

    Coffee is going, and corn muffins are in back, so enjoy!
