I was thinking I might post in here about how much I liked him, but couldn't stand his sideline demeanor. Then he gets on camera with all his charms and all is forgiven. One of those is an act. and I hope is the sideline one

95 slides to present on presenting? Abraham style?
The funerals I've been to all involve these people with deep connections to everyone there and people have these stories about how the deceased made the world a better place. I always imagine at my that someone will stand up and say "That bentley, he usually didn't stick his #### in the mashed potatoes." Then everyone will get drunk enough that they don't really remember what happened and go on with their life.
Preparing to give my magnum opus, the 95 slide presentation on presenting in the morning. Every time I do this, I have people in the class send me a recent slide presentation to use for examples of dos and don'ts throughout the class. I don't think anyone has ever sent me a good slide deck. This time I had someone send me a 15 slide show that was nothing other than a reprint of a section from the Texas Labor Code with no bullet points, images, animation or anything else.

Crazy end to MNF. Don't care if the call was crap or not. Just glad to see the Pats lose.

Makes sense. I was thinking more of the cartoony kind of animation.We're probably well beyond the GMTAN tolerance for PowerPoint discussion but it could work in the legal cite above. If it's important to have the entire section of code, but I'm going to emphasize three or four key words, a simple animation where the code appears, then everything other than those terms is grayed out while those are brought to the front and appear in a different color could be useful.I have rarely seen an animation positively used other than for a laugh. Not saying it's not possible, just in my experience and ####.Animations usually suck because people suck at putting together presentations. If used properly, they can be very powerful when illustrating a point.Put me down in the don't use animations in PowerPoint camp.

I laughed when I saw it. Pats have had it so rough...

If Brady didn't short arm that thing, they would have gotten the call. Maybe it's time for Tom to go.

42 hours or so until I meet Thorn in person. Pretty excited.

I'll have to come up with a code word in case Thorn wants me to get him out of there.

My kids will be there. I'm pretty sure a code word of "these kids suck, let's go somewhere else" will do.

3. No. Not at all.
4. I think Mrs. Frosty is a bit nervous.

Looks like my invite to whatever thing that's going down is over at Golfsino or something.

Coldhole weekend. Let me know your availability. There will be pull tabs, meat raffles, maybe das boot, drinking in 19 degree weather, linked meats, a football game and maybe even some greenies, who knows?
Mr. Pickles
Footballguy
This week and weekend are already shot. At least I'm racking up Delta Skymiles.

I'll be supplying the greenies.
Oh and will Mrs Frosty be making an appearance on Friday night or Saturday??

If I knew you had left to get some pizza I would have gone with you. It's a little disappointing to learn that you already knew the women you were talking to, we thought you were attempting to pick up some women. We'll have to do it again sometime in the not-too-distant future, although I suspect nobody will let me pick the band next time.

I know you aren't trying to be funny, but this is kinda hilarious. Kids are so wierd, man. Little, strange, wierd people.-fish- said:
It's great that you can be with her during this time. The stability for her is awesome. She WILL push you. Remember (I know you know this, but still good to hear), raising a kid right has a lot in common with raising a dog right: don't take the bad behavior personally, just try and modify it to change into good behavior. It's all about behavior modification. And love; lots and lots of love. I've been lucky because my kids' mom is really great with the consistant behavior modification (i.e., clear rules and sticking to them), and I'm really good at showing them love, attention, and time. I don't know how I'd pull it off if I was the only one who was capable of doing both things well. But you can, buddy. You'll do a great job. And she will test you, I'm sure. My ten year old daughter can be an absolute hellion at some points and the most loving thing in the world at some points. It can make your head spin.
It sounds like your biggest challenge will be your girlfriend, and the plans that you were expecting to make. Stand firm on what you think is best, and remember to check in here often for reality checks.
And good luck. It's so awesome that you get to have your daughter in your life more. That's a huge and wonderful thing, man.
