Throwing Romo Under the Bus!


My brother just sent an email saying that Best Buy has a deal for only today for a remote starting Sonic Care Toothbrush.  I had never thought of that but now I need one.  How wonderful would that be to start your tooth brush remotely.  How useful is THAT.  I hope you can lock it remotely also!

-----------------------------------------------
What can I say about the Packer game that has not already been said.  The most amazing game I have ever seen, seriously.  I was up late last night watching ESPN and other Sports shows reaming the Cowboys!  One had the Cowboy coach throwing Romo under the bus.  OH, nevermind about the game clock management.  

And BTW - THAT is why social media is so awesome. What fun!

I cant wait to listen to Dan Patrick this morning.

I intend of getting some better shots of these windows today when I pick up my artwork and canopy from New World Creative Studio where I was in a craft fair.  The windows were pretty sweet but I had all my stuff in front of them.

Then there is the city council who shot down the new city website last meeting.

This is  what a mock up of what the new website WOULD have looked like.


But all of a sudden Davidson, after sleeping through a month and a half of meetings it seems, wakes up at the last second and brings up all sorts of "problems" because he is an "expert".

The site does not have enough security and hackers could wreak havoc . . . because hackers love messing with websites of cities with a population of 5000?   The new website would not have special software so blind people could read it and basically the website would not be as good as the State of Wisconsin website with all the bells and whistles. 

So the council decides that since this is not a Cadillac website we should not have it.  COME ON PEOPLE!  Do we NEED a cadillac website or do we want one that looks good runs well and gets the job done.  $7000 is not a bad price.  Being a web designer in the past and helping businesses get websites it's not unreasonable.  Sure the wording of the contract seemed vague but should we spend another $10,000 hiring lawyers to get the perfect contract?   GET IT DONE!

Once again they will analyze and analyze to get the perfect website but not a line of code will ever go up!   IN THEORY, I agree with Davidson but super perfection is not needed.  And where the hell was he in the last 4 meetings.  Once again - inaction is running the city.

OH - back to football.  I'll be in the Championship game once again in fantasy football. I crushed the #1 team and don't even have to worry about starting Calvin Johnson tonight.

 later!
