tyrion Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Sitting in the airport in Raleigh. It's not much but at least they have Starbucks. We got to see snow yesterday. They got an inch, maybe two yesterday. Lucky for us it started about 20 minutes after we finished our hike. Got to got to The Pit for some spare ribs and pulled pork. We also had lunch at The Flying Saucer. It was a nice weekend with just the two of us.
agile_one Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Nice, Mike. Sounds like a nice getaway for you and Gail. See you in a few days.

I'm watching flurries outside right now as I prep to depart tonight for another week of training for work. This time in (not-so-scenic) southern Connecticut for a class that has been best described as death by power point. I can't wait.

Voltron Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 The infamous death by a thousand slides! Good luck Nate. Great sounding little trip Mike. We're just hanging around home this weekend and doing Christmas shopping "early" because we will be in northern Michigan the week before the big day and my trial resumes in fits and starts this week with TamJam in the middle.
n_maher Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 It's snowing up there? All I've got is cloudy sky. Just barely, Haj, just a few flakes a minute. And it's 5 days worth of slides @ 8hrs a day with a few snooze-worthy videos thrown in.
Dusty Chalk Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 ...death by power point...(shudders sympathetically)
Augsburger Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Nate, good thing you don't have ADD.
Grahame Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Just barely, Haj, just a few flakes a minute. And it's 5 days worth of slides @ 8hrs a day with a few snooze-worthy videos thrown in. Couldn't join via WebEx , or ask them to just send you the PowerPoint files?
Salt Peanuts Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Finished blowing leaves off my yard for, hopefully, the last time this season.
tyrion Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Nate, sorry to hear about the additional training and Conn. The only times I've been to Conn were to see the Dead play in Hartford a few times and on my bike so we could take off our helmets for a short while.
n_maher Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 Couldn't join via WebEx , or ask them to just send you the PowerPoint files? Unfortunately not, there's the occasional in-class assignment (workshop) and a site visit to a local facility.
Salt Peanuts Posted December 5, 2010 Report Posted December 5, 2010 I did nothing at all today The best way to spend a weekend day, methinks.
Dreadhead Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) Got up and went and tried out my new mountain bike which was an very painful experience with 10+ side falls and 2 over the handlebar wipeouts. I'm stiff as heck a few cuts but no bruises as yet. Then I had a fellow caser and his family over for a Barbadian dinner which was lots of fun. Edited December 6, 2010 by Dreadhead

Tyll Hertsens Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 And it's 5 days worth of slides @ 8hrs a day with a few snooze-worthy videos thrown in. Would you like some luke warm bitter coffee and a gummie banana nut muffin to go with that?
n_maher Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 Would you like some luke warm bitter coffee and a gummie banana nut muffin to go with that? I am a smart man and made sure to book a hotel with a Starbucks in the lobby and packed my own bottle of Gentleman Jack. Not that 'bucks is good coffee, but better than many traveling alternatives.
Augsburger Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 Spent the day, and whole weekend for that matter doing the family Christmas version of Rubik's cube. I had to set up our two Christmas trees and figure out how to hook up all the lights and make them all work since some connectors on the tree can only handle two plugs and each tree holds about a dozen zillion lights. Then spent three hours crawling around the attic pulling down ornaments and decorations. I feel like a West Virginia coal miner on ludes, my neck back and shoulders ache like hell. I need a Gentleman Jack and a cigar.
shellylh Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 Got and set up my early Christmas gift (rower). It won't be staying in the living room though.
jinp6301 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 tried to wrap my brain around convolution and cross-correlation for a final project. would have been nice if we were taught this stuff before hand
Grahame Posted December 6, 2010 Report Posted December 6, 2010 Picked up some old-school paper maps of Orlando, Tampa and Florida from AAA.
