  • Me, too.

    However I am finding it hard to get a job. I got laid off in September. Employers want a square peg for a square hole. “Cisco engineer”, for example. I know enough to get around Cisco, Fortigate and a few others. And project management. And servers. And a dozen other technologies. With 20+ years experience. But I don’t find anyone paying enough for someone with a diverse skill set.




  • I was on long bay in Tortola in 1999 for Lenny. Beachfront cabins. Sounded like a freight train just out the door. 75-mile-an-hour coconuts were a hazard. We had no Internet, phones were out. Similarly surreal, though. Water was scarce, and milk was unobtainable, but rum was super cheap and plentiful - so we had it on our cornflakes.
