Just End The Season:
Got an email from an old co-worker today who was a VP at my company when I was here, who also is a big Jets fan like myself. This is what he threw in the PS:
"The Jets just called me and they want me to start at QB this Sunday. They said they are calling random 42-year olds in New Jersey. Couldn’t do much worse than last Sunday I guess. "
Ain't that the damn truth...

Changing Of The Gaurd
Changing Of The Gaurd:
Well, it's official. I put in my two-week notice at Direct Holdings, to pursue a job at MLB Advanced Media. Although I'm excited about what lies ahead of me, I can't help but to be a little sad about what I'm leaving behind.
As many of you know, I've had a bumpy ride at DHWW. When I first came here, I felt my talents were being wasted in order to get production out of me to do remedial work. Eventually, there was a changing on the guard, and I was able to perform at a level that I knew I was capable. So much, that they made me the Project Manager a few weeks ago. I've had the opportunity to work with some incredibly talented people here, and on the same token, some people who I don't mind never working with again. But all in all, when our numbers were called during launch for www.lillianvernon.com and www.timelife.com, everyone stepped it up a notch, and that's what I'll remember most about this team. When the pressure was on, we were there for each other to make one another better; truly the living example of synergy.
It was a tough decision, but my boss was cool about it. He understands this is where I have to be now, and that MLB is a dream come true. Truly this man has been a great leader and teacher over the past year and hopefully our paths cross again in the future. The other two Directors have done nothing but teach me and take me under their wings. They never had to do that, but they did anyway...
I'll remember those late nights at the office, making trips to get wine at 10pm, just because we deserved it. I'll remember being here at 3am for the timelife.com launch, only to come and find Smokey Robinson passed out cold on his desk. I'll remember everyone growing beards when we made the playoffs in softball. And I'll especially remember the great people I met and worked with over this year.
Also, Boobie Harnett is demanding his own section dedicated to him. What a booze bag...
