All you travelers have fun! We decided to break in Lu's new car (CR-V) by driving to the Palomar Observatory. Twisty roads fitting for a Porsche. BTW, the telescope is huge!

We went to the Granite Quarry today. That sounds strange but it was interesting.

Then we went to the German style buffet and met up with Pete ans his wife. They are indeed a super nice couple.

We are partially packed. Just a few items to pack and we hit the road toward home.

Made it back from Parade.......minus one H4 and right frt. fender and a dent in the hood.
Damn deer.
Everybody is fine (except the deer who is taking a permanent nap).
He went right over the car after the impact.

I had a similar accident with the SC except that the fata$$ deer that hit me came from the driver's side and dented the inside of the fender and the headlight on the passenger's side. He took off after the hit but was nice enough to leave a tiny tuft of fur for the police to see.

Have a safe trip back home Glen.

Glens already did the dear tour for Parade. Don't think he enjoyed it.

Have a friend with insomnia problems. He went to a sleep clinic and they gave him one of those APAP breather things. It worked for about two weeks then it was back to insomnia.

Crap Pete, that sucks. BTDT I did not care for deer crashes. Don't wanna do it again.

The good news is you and the Mrs. are fine, the car did it's job of protecting you. The damage can be fixed, but it still sucks big time.

We are up and at em. Almost packed and hitting the road soon.

Gonna have to get me some ear plugs to keep in my ears and a clothespin for my nose while I'm sleeping so I'm not awoken by the sparrow farts.

Am I being set up for something?

Noticed that since the last layoff the VP over IT, not the IT Director, has really been pushing to get me involved in ALL the systems and processes IT is involved with. He is putting me in the position to know more about IT than anyone else in the company including himself and the IT Director. The VP told me the IT Director doesn't like it but he doesn't care. Even so the Director called me really late last night, 12:30pm and asked me some questions about Active Directory that he didn't know.

Maybe you are going to be the IT Director?

Bet he makes more than I me as I make industry average for Exchange Administrator. Which isn't bad, but I have to assume if I am making industry average for my job title he is too.

Do think it was a boner decision to over buy Office365 licenses like he did.

Dang, that really sucks! I take it that the deer became intimate with Pete's 911?
