...just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!!!!!

Friday morning. Wake up, read newspaper. Fix breakfast for my kids. Drop them at school. Gym. Back home. Breakfast. Off to office.

The plan: two meetings. Back to back. 2 hours tops. Off to lunch. Cigar. Call it a day.

We are working on a pretty large job for the largest brewery in the world. Major issues (nothing health nor safety related). I have been on the phone for an hour. Now, conference call this afternoon.

Sigh....

Sperry... What a 'fantastic' photo! Love those Clydes - such beauties!!! Been around a few in my day. Did you know Gerardo really enjoys c-o-l-d weather: can't you just see G sitting beside that Dalmation, bundled up all smiles?....

(G - please don't ostracize me for that suggestion... hehehee) DM

Well...my Friday ended up at 7pm @ office. In the end, issue was fixed, so we should be ok for the next stage.

It was not scotch, but tequila. A nice glass of Reserva de la Familia (cheers, Scott!). Yes, I do enjoy cold weather...no dalmatian, but a ShihTzu

Today....let’s say there is a lot of food and wine in the very near future....
