In more ways than you might think. . . I suspect you understand what goes into/through that building - and more importantly the folks that. . . *ahem*. . . "watch over" it?



I've done some work on that building myself (my old office) - a mechanical platform redesign specifically. Some very, very interesting things in there. And I'm sure a lot more interesting things I never got to see. . .

Obligatory pic (where I rode my road bike to this past weekend and where I'll probably be going the next several weeks for training - anyone recognize the spot?)

One Wilshire houses the "Meet Me Room", among other things, where over 200 different networks interconnect. It's basically a major nexus of internet traffic for the Pacific Rim and beyond. A really really big deal.

This is said to be the most connected building in the world. Almost every transpacific telecom line terminates there.

I guess that's what I guess for leaving the google header on the image, huh?

Here's a pic of my two new "children" we adopted several weeks ago after Charlie's passing (Lucy & Linus - believe it or not they're mother & son):



And their new "stepmom/stepsister" (Bonnie). They're still working out the details of who's in charge:



A better Bonnie pic (this is usually what I wake up to - about 3 inches from my face demanding that I get up and feed her):
