Life Update

Luke had Drama tryouts. He performed "Aragorn's Speech Before the Black Gate" and sang "Sweet Baby James". He finds out later this week if he made the team. He leaves on Sunday for Spring Break with Dalton Dawes.

Lisa leaves for two weeks in Mexico, with Judy Conrad, next Tuesday.

I spent three days in Huntsville, AL last week at Sirsi Dynix for Admin training. Hville was very quiet. Work is going well. Learning much. Getting more on my plate.

Carolina is in the Final Four with Kansas, Memphis, and UCLA. First time ever that all four number one seeds made it to the Final Four. Davidson lost (59-57) to Kansas, just missing out on being the first 10 seed to make it.

Interact, my old employer, will be closing the Ashevile office as of May 1st. Some folks are being let go (Randy, John White), others are moving to Winston Salem (Monie, Edgar) other folks are taking jobs (Thomas), other folks will work from home (Jerry, Jeff, Kelly, et al). Hard times. Hard to swallow too since every quarterly meeting during 2007, management repeatedly said they were keeping the Asheville office open.

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are still slugging it out for the Democratic Presidential nomination, even though, mathematically Hill cannot win. This leaves John McCain (Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran) a basic free ride till the Dem nominee gets sorted out. God Hillary..let it go. Obama's won more primaries, more states, more popular votes, more delegates.
