Globetrotter Fun
What do you do for fun? It is common in the tech world to often find our niche or the thing we like to do and do it over and over again. Even outside the tech world it is easy to be stuck in the rut of a daily routine. I enjoy opportunities to break the cycle of the daily routine and do or see different things.
I had the opportunity this evening to take Rowan to see the Harlem Globetrotters. It was a first time for both of us and it certainly was an enjoyable show. It’s great to share new experiences with family members. It definitely creates memories and the chance for new creative thinking.
We all need breaks in our routine. I’m finding more and more that regularly scheduled breaks not only give me fresh perspective but also make me more productive over the long haul.
What was the last fun thing you did do break the routine?
SAP Projects
SAP projects are often large, complex and very expensive endevours for most companies. The value they provide if done right (on time and budget) can be tremendous. For many organizations, and integrated system like SAP will help them realize new levels of efficiency and savings when looked at over the course of many years.
To archive those results, however, organizations have to be willing to let go of the way they currently do things and approach not only the system but also their business practices with a new paradigm. This is more often then not where companies fall down in their SAP journey. They want the benefits that the standardization and integration that SAP provides but they don’t want to let go of their familiar way of doing business.
The clip below is a humors look at the serious implications of not managing a SAP project well! Enjoy!
Star Wars for Real
The are just not as exciting in this context are they? Almost hard to believe that over 30 years later kids are still dressing up like them, quoting their lines and pretending they had real Light Sabers to battle with!

Fun Friday
My generation has had the benefit of seeing technology mature in many areas, but one of the most interesting is in gaming. This past Christmas we got the Kinect for the Xbox 360, where you are the controller and you hold nothing. It is pretty amazing. This video gives us a great look back at this history of gaming and how far it (and the tech behind it) have come. Enjoy!

The (Almost) Comeback
So close yet so far away. Definitely a hard loss to swallow as there were so many missed opportunities, so many plays that could have given us the win – none more dramatic than the interception in the end zone at the end of the game. But during those final 4 minutes of the game I saw passion, determination and heart from a team that wanted to win. They may not come out on the winning end every game but they do play with heart and for that this fan is thankful.
Thanks Birds for a season full of fun and surprises. Can’t wait for next year!
A Matter of HEART
Can’t wait for this game! Let’s go E-A-G-L-E-S!
Even if you are not from the Philly area, you gotta love the passion and HEART of the fans!
