Starsky And Hutch

A long overdue post.

Got a great laugh Friday night - was waiting for Bootleg Willy to show, so we could toast his liberation from a hated job. I was talking with one of the regulars there - she asked me where Willy was, and I told her about his new job, and how I had met him at work about 10 years ago. She proceeds to tell me that she had originally thought Willy and I were cops.

A little later I tell this to the bartender, who says, "She isn't the only one. I've had two or three other people ask me the same thing."

:-)

I sent this story to my friend Arlyn, who tagged us with "Starsky And Hutch". Brilliant!

It's been an eventful few weeks since I last posted. We added a second consultant at work, and he's done a good job so far. I'm trying to get him up to speed on the basics there - eventually, the plan is for him to handle the OS side of things, while I transition to application support. It's comforting to know I have backup there now - I can take days off/vacation now.

Wound up dropping nearly $800 on car repairs a few weeks ago. The Cruiser had a stuck brake caliper, so it had to be replaced. Also got the windshield fluid nozzles replaced (they had cracked) and the AC recharged. Of course, we haven't had any warm weather to test the AC with.

Looks like some bad weather on the way here north of Boston. It's drizzling here now, and we're expecting 2-4" of rain this afternoon/tonight. I'd like to make a run into Cambridge to stock up at Trader Joe's. but we'll see.
