His first. We’re all a little nervous .. but he’s not as much as I am I suppose. CHKD has been fantastic. Went on a tour of the facility last night and talked to his nurse.

On another note .. we have Hurricane Earl getting ready to hit .. no fun that. We’ve raised everything in the office. .. I’ll post updates from CHKD in a bit.

And people wonder why I got off facebook.  Here’s another reason, being caught in a net.  See .. I wonder how many people will now have those details tied to say, their email address, or their credit card, or or or.  Personal Information is TOO free.

They were working under a contract called ConITS and had bid the next iteration called LITES. They lost and STG won the contract. The Program Manager is someone I have worked for before, Christine Matthews, and had great experience with. I am looking forward to talking to them Tuesday about the new Contract and opportunities.
